Amarnath Kemsaram

Product Owner — AI & HealthTech SaaS

Bio length

I've taken three products from zero to live users: my own bootstrapped SaaS, a travel platform, and a HIPAA-compliant AI health platform for the US market. Engineer by training, so my specs get built — and when needed, I build the prototype myself.

I started my career as a market-research analyst covering emerging technology, then left to build a product of my own. Splitstream, the multistreaming SaaS I founded and taught myself to code, grew to 20,000+ users and 980 paying customers with no outside funding, including people at Everton FC, Kaspersky and the German Bundestag.

Since 2019 I've worked at Fountane, a US venture studio, where I've taken two more products from an idea to live users. StayNow is a group-travel booking platform, where 80% of beta users adopted Trips, the collaborative planning feature I conceived. The other is a HIPAA-compliant AI diagnostic-results platform that has delivered more than 2 million reports and lifted daily active users by 30%, with zero compliance violations.

I'm an electrical engineer by training, and I still build things myself: prototypes that unblock engineering, AI-assisted workflows that cut our design-to-code time from four business days to one, and ESP32 hardware projects in my spare time. The parts of product work I care most about are the unglamorous ones: measuring before deciding, saying no when it protects the user, and shipping what people actually use.
