I shipend to end.

I'm Ishan Gupta, a full stack engineer. Founding engineer at Clipstake, founder of Insyd. React, TypeScript, tRPC and Postgres, from the first commit to the App Store.

About

Three years owning production systems end to end. I shipped Clipstake’s first iOS and Android apps solo, moved real money to 5,000+ creators, and took a Web3 streaming platform from zero to 20,000 users. Now I’m building Insyd.

Experience (03)

Where I’ve shipped.

A founding role, a zero-to-production build and three years of client work. Every one of them shipped to real users. Scroll through them.

Projects

I also run Insyd.

Insyd is my product studio. We design, build and launch software: an iPhone MCP for Claude, a native IDE for coding agents and a video editor that writes back to code.

An MCP that lets Claude drive a real iPhone through macOS iPhone Mirroring: tap, type, scroll and run whole flows from the terminal.

A native, GPU-rendered IDE for coding agents. Seven agents side by side, each in its own git worktree. Rust on GPUI, no Electron.

StudioInsyd · video

A video editor for Remotion with Claude built in. Every edit is written back into the source, so the film stays real code.
