We're Sunil Tiwari and Payal Fofadiya — a pair of software engineers in the San Francisco Bay Area, building at the intersection of AI agents, LLM infrastructure, and applied machine learning.
This shared account is where our joint experiments live, alongside individual side projects we tinker with after-hours.

- Fulloop AI — AI-powered technical interview platform. Payal as Founder/CEO, Sunil as CTO. Cheating-resistant assessments, real-world coding environments, structured rubrics.
- Context Zero — research and tooling for hierarchical AI memory systems. (blog series)
- Our personal portfolio sites — both built from a shared design language, deployed on Vercel.
We share a fascination with how AI agents reason, remember, and act over long horizons — and we ship code that explores those questions in production. If you're working on AI infrastructure, agent platforms, or interview tech, our DMs are open on both sides.
