Naman Kumar
AI & product leader. Hands-on builder. YC S16.
Naman builds AI systems for customer operations and developer infrastructure, connecting the engineering with how people actually work.
What he’s building
At Measured Intuition, Naman builds voice and SMS agents that handle patient calls and reduce manual coordination. Other work includes reconstructing financial histories from fragmented transaction records, and harnesses that preserve context across tools and conversations.
He also builds the evaluations: checking completed tasks, accounting accuracy, missing evidence and failure recovery. The point is to establish where a system works, where it fails and what needs to change before relying on it.
