Veshnu Ramakrishnan

Founder & CEO of Avian

I'm building Avian — AI-powered organizational intelligence that generates architecture-aware PRDs, system designs, and task breakdowns. We're solving the miscommunication gap between product and engineering teams.

Previously, I spent 15+ years building 0→1 products at FAANG and startups like DoorDash, Houseparty. I founded DoorDash Labs and proposed several ideas to improve engineering efficiency.

My thesis: the best software specs reduce degrees of freedom — giving AI coding tools the architectural context they need to generate correct code, not slop.
