Hello! I’m Shalin Shah, a B.Tech student in AI and ML at DJ Sanghvi College of Engineering, passionate about generative AI and large language models. I led the development of an AI-powered lead generation platform for the architecture and interior design sector—built from first principles using Python, Selenium, regex, and Flask/FastAPI—automating discovery to qualification with NLP and lightweight ML models. As a Data Analyst, I’ve driven strategy through cross-industry insights. Starting trading at 16, I mastered DRHP analysis and swing trading. Now, I’m focused on building an AI-first alternative to Bloomberg. Let’s connect and build the future of fintech.

The system leveraged an automated agentic platform to streamline and execute the entire lead generation funnel—from discovery to qualification—using NLP for dynamic interactions and lightweight ML models for lead prioritization.
