About
Automate5 is a small senior engineering and AI studio. We work with founders and operators who need technical leadership and hands-on delivery from one accountable partner.
Founders
We started Automate5 because most companies don't need a bigger vendor. They need senior people who understand the business, make the right calls and get the thing shipped.
One of us is on every engagement, from the first call to launch. When a project needs more hands, we bring in senior engineers we've worked with before, and you meet them before they start.
Co-founder & Head of Growth
Surabhi leads growth at Automate5. She started out as an Android developer and has spent nearly a decade as a technical program manager, leading engineering, product, UX and QA teams to ship user-facing products.
She's also an independent AI researcher, an IEEE Senior Member, an author and an inventor.
Co-founder & CTO
Sahil leads the technical work at Automate5: architecture, engineering and AI builds.
As a founder himself, he makes technical calls with the business case in view, and stays hands-on in the code where it matters.
How we think
Code is getting cheaper to write. Knowing what to build, what to skip and what will break later is not. That's what you're hiring.
Proven tools, simple architecture, small releases. The interesting part should be your product, not our stack.
Every engagement starts with one number we both agree on: hours saved, calls answered, revenue, conversion.
Evals, guardrails, human handoff and cost tracking come standard. A demo isn't a product.
Your repo, your cloud, your accounts, your data. We build so you could fire us tomorrow and keep going.
Docs, runbooks and a real handover. The best engagements end with your team running what we built.
