About Ankit Mishra
Builder / Futurist / Teleologist
I'm Ankit Mishra, a builder who codes, a strategist who loves shipping, and a futurist who believes technology should help us become more conscious as humans.
I architect AI-native products at the intersection of emerging technology and timeless human needs. Not products that extract more data from people, but systems that give them genuine agency over their health, alignment, and growth.
For over twelve years, I've been exploring what happens when you combine consumer product sensibility with healthcare rigor, AI capabilities with ancient wisdom, and rapid shipping with philosophical depth. From scaling content platforms to 100 million readers, to building HIPAA-compliant EMRs serving thousands of patients, to creating AI systems that meaningfully improve real-world health markers.
I believe we're at a rare inflection point. Technology is finally mature enough to serve human abundance. But only if we build with purpose.
From Content to Consciousness
As I look back, a pattern emerges through everything I've done and built.
It started with CricTracker while still in college, it was a first-gen internet company in India, back in 2013. Relentless pursuit of excellence led us to scaling the platform to 100 million readers a month while orchestrating a 100-person distributed team. On the surface, a sports content platform. In reality, a crash course in product operations: managing international teams across time zones, building editorial systems with zero budget, owning full P&L while learning everything on the fly.
After CricTracker, I became curious about a different kind of problem. What if we applied internet-era user behaviour and insights to software. Indian prodcuts built by legacy service companies were rather infamous for being terrible at scale and far from modern UI/ UX.
At Procedure Tech (2019-2022), I learned how products are built across geographies and markets. From healthcare regulatory complexity in India to B2B SaaS across three markets: India, US, Australia. Defining and delivering high-complexity platforms taught me that constraints aren't obstacles, they're clarity engines. When you can't move fast and break things, you think deeply about purpose.
At Houseworks (2022-2024), I went deeper: zero-to-one HIPAA-compliant Outpatient EMR for US chronic care. Leading a distributed team building clinical systems taught me that regulatory guardrails aren't friction, they're for protection of patients, providers, PHI and data.
Now at PFC Club, I'm synthesizing everything: consumer product sensibility, healthcare rigor, AI capabilities, and insights from ancient wisdom. Building preventive health systems serving 150,000+ users AI-powered, vision-enabled, scientifically grounded, philosophically coherent.
The pattern? I'm drawn to problems where techno-consciousness meets human abundance, building tools that help people become more aligned with their health, purpose, and growth.
Core Operating Values
Bias for Shipping
I prefer a prototype today over perfect spec next month. Speed of iteration, feedback and update loops is the only sustainable advantage.
Compound Systems
I build products that get better with every interaction, data flywheels and learning cycles over one-time optimizations.
First-Principle Thinking
I dig problems to unearth fundamental truths. In complex industries like healthcare, this is the only way to innovate without bloat.
Exploring What's Emerging
I'm always exploring where technology and human needs genuinely converge, not where hype suggests they might. Right now, I'm curious about:
Techno-consciousness
How can technology deepen our human experience rather than flatten it? Can AI serve enlightenment, not just engagement metrics for Bigtech?
Preventive Health Systems
Not tracking for tracking's sake, but tools that improve real-world health markers and restore agency over our most important decisions.
Ancient Wisdom, Modern Accessibility
Making timeless teachings discoverable and contextual through AI, not replacing modern education, but making civilizational wisdom more accessible and discernible.
Agentic AI in Healthcare
Building systems that expand clinical capability while enhancing human judgment. Automating administrative burden while surfacing insights at the point of care.
Building Across Borders
Leading distributed teams and bridging continents, disciplines, and worldviews.
Throughout my journey, I've orchestrated teams and managed stakeholder relationships across time zones and cultures. At Houseworks, I partnered with US C-suite (CEO, President) and clinical leadership (Medical Director, Department Heads) to deliver HIPAA-compliant healthcare platforms from India.
This taught me to bridge three critical languages: technical (engineering teams), clinical (medical professionals), and business (executive leadership) while navigating timezone complexity, cultural nuance, and regulatory rigor.
This is what I bring: the ability to architect at intersections where most builders won't venture.
Philosophy & Rhythm
I don't separate product strategy from technical architecture, they're the same conversation that determine the future products we're creating.
As a builder, I architect and ship. As a futurist, I explore where technology and human consciousness converge. As a teleologist, I'm obsessed with whether what I'm making genuinely serves its purpose.
I thrive in environments that value transparency, rapid iteration, and philosophical depth alongside execution rigor. Where we can ask "should we build this?" before "can we build this?" Where purpose shapes product, not the other way around.
My Rhythm
Building the Next Inflection
I'm drawn to hard problems at the intersection of emerging technology and human behaviour especially in spaces that are ripe for disruption powered through innovation.
