Hi, I’m Phanni. I built the thing I needed.

The loop I couldn’t switch off.

I’ve always been the person who replays the meeting after the meeting. Who says something fine at 4pm and defends it to an imaginary jury at midnight. Who feels something big moving and can’t find the word for it, so it just sits there, heavier.

Every app I tried had the same answer: write more. A blank page at the end of a hard day is not comfort — for me it was homework.

Analyst first. Builder second.

I didn’t start as a founder. I started as the person translating between what clients needed and what engineers built — requirements, validation docs, UAT, gap analysis across six-plus client environments. Two internships taught me how real products earn trust: slowly, with structure.

Then I started Relent.

No co-founder, no funding, no permission. Just the conviction that emotional software should be softer than the moment it meets you in — and the analyst discipline to actually ship it. Product direction, interface, engineering, growth writing: all of it from one desk in Hyderabad.

Everything on this site — every page you’re reading right now — is designed and built by me. That’s the point. Calm software should be made calmly.

Currently on the desk.
