Gesture Fun Playground
Your webcam as the controller — air-draw, pinch to pop bubbles, an Iron Man repulsor. Designing for an input with no buttons: the interface has to show the machine seeing you.
Available for hard problems
Experience finds the solution.
Twelve years of living inside real problems — finance, operations, business, everyday life. Now I turn what I noticed into working products: I design them, and I build them with AI.

About
Who is doing the work.
I'm Makarand. I spent twelve years in finance before I moved into design — as an officer, a consultant, and running my own business. So I design for people I used to be.
I'm in Mumbai. I work as a product designer at Markets Mojo, and I co-founded Bunny, an app for financial advisors. I make every design and product decision myself, and I direct AI to write the code — which is how a designer ends up shipping installable products instead of handing over screens.
It started early. At fourteen I wired an old CD player into a toy car, with no tutorial and nobody to ask. It didn't work the way I imagined — but I had built it, and I've been doing a version of that ever since.

I've been the user
Twelve years working inside the problems before I ever designed for them. I don't have to commission research to know where a process quietly hurts — I've felt it, and I can name the fix before the first workshop ends.

I decide what should exist
The hard part was never making a screen look good. It's judging what deserves to be built at all — weighing the user's real behaviour, the business goal, and what's actually feasible, then choosing.

I finish things
An idea I can't build is an idea I can't test. AI is how I close that gap — I direct it, review every decision, and ship installable products instead of static mockups. This page is one of them.
The Method
Most people say they use AI.
Here's mine, running.
Pick a problem. The console below replays how it actually went — what I recognised from experience, the decision that followed, and what got built. No slide deck, no black box.

Selected work
Different domains.
Same method.
One flagship platform, then the range around it — voice, gesture, mobile, systems, regional language. The subject changes; the way I get there doesn't.

BeFM — Be Your Own Fund Manager
Build a strategy from your own rules, test it against ten years of history, then take it live. Designed and built as one working prototype — and it sold the product before a line of production code existed.

The Lab
Things I built to
answer a question.
Not products — single HTML files that test one interaction idea. Download either one, double-click it, and it runs offline.
Magic Touch
Tap anywhere and something bursts. Built for a child who cannot read yet — so every rule is learned by touching once, and nothing punishes them.
The path here
I didn't switch careers.
I added design to what I already knew.

I'm most useful early — when someone still has to decide what to build, not just how it should look.
