Alpstack is where I build in public
Alpstack is a product-driven engineering studio founded by Renish Bhaskaran (Renish B) in Coimbatore, India. It builds and operates products like Indraft, HousePulse, MarkdownPaper, Fiveto9Jobs, and Cravr, and partners with teams on software development, cloud architecture, and consulting.
Alpstack is my company, studio, product lab, and occasional reminder that a solo founder has many job titles but only one calendar. It is where I build products, test markets, write code, ship releases, handle branding, fix bugs, and then pretend I meant to learn all those lessons the hard way.
The point of Alpstack is simple: build useful products and use that production experience to help other teams. I am not only advising from theory. I am living with my own product decisions, cloud bills, customer feedback, marketplace quirks, and release checklists.
That makes the consulting side more honest. When I talk about software development, cloud architecture, mentoring, or hiring, the advice comes from systems I have built and operated, not from a slide deck wearing a blazer.
Products from Alpstack
A mix of software products, mobile apps, consumer products, and developer-tool ideas. Some are live, some are early, all of them taught me something useful.
Indraft monitors trusted sources and drafts on-brand blogs, posts, newsletters, and hooks that a human reviews before publishing.

How Alpstack can help
Software Development
I build software end to end: the architecture, backend, APIs, web interface, deployment path, and the little operational details that usually become loud later.
Web Development
I build websites and web apps that are fast, readable, SEO-friendly, and maintainable after the launch excitement calms down.
Software Mentoring & Technical Instruction
I mentor developers with direct feedback on code, architecture, debugging, interviews, and the engineering habits that compound over a career.
Technical Interviewing
I run structured technical interviews that help teams understand how candidates think, build, debug, communicate, and make tradeoffs.
Software Consulting
I help founders and teams make technical decisions before those decisions become expensive folklore.
Cloud Architecture
I design cloud systems that deploy safely, scale sensibly, expose useful signals, and do not turn the monthly bill into a horror short film.
