Amal Shaji — engineer building AI, open-source software, and developer tools

amal.sh · email · @amal_ytics · all repositories

I am an engineer who likes taking ideas from zero to production. I work across AI agents, open-source developer tools, native utilities, and small internet experiments—with a bias toward software that stays out of the way.

Currently building from Bengaluru, India.

Selected work

Portr

An open-source tunnel for teams. Expose local HTTP, TCP, and WebSocket services through SSH, then inspect and replay traffic locally.

GO · REACT · SSH · SELF-HOSTED

DBcooper

A lightweight desktop database client for PostgreSQL, SQLite, Redis, and ClickHouse—with a native shell and AI-assisted SQL.

RUST · TAURI · REACT · TYPESCRIPT

Cafe BLR

A map-friendly directory of Bengaluru cafes discovered through posts people actually loved—the original recommendation stays attached as the receipt.

ASTRO · TYPESCRIPT · CLOUDFLARE · OPEN DATA

OpenDrop

Publish versioned static previews, share them privately or publicly, and collect point comments and text highlights in context.

TYPESCRIPT · BUN · REACT · CLOUDFLARE

Dictator

A native macOS dictation app. Hold Fn, speak, and send polished text back to the app you were using—with on-device Apple Speech or your own cloud provider.

SWIFT · SWIFTUI · APPLE SPEECH · MACOS

Agent Thread

Share and convert Claude Code and Codex sessions without turning useful agent work into an unreadable transcript dump.

TYPESCRIPT · CLAUDE CODE · CODEX

Say hello

Have an interesting developer-tooling, infrastructure, or AI-agent idea? Send me an email. I am always happy to compare notes with people who like building useful things.
