SafeRaipur
I live in Raipur. Someone I care about shouldn't have to text "reached?" every night. So I built a live city safety grid: a map that reads the news in English and Hindi every 30 minutes, takes anonymous community reports, detects surges before the news writes about them, and plots the safest walking route home.
Zero servers, zero cost, no accounts, no tracking. Rebuilt from a crashing v1 into a production-grade v3.4.1. A VC found the launch post on his own. Submitted to SIH 2026 and the MSME Idea Hackathon.
- Guardian Mode. pg_cron state machine that checks on you, escalates over SIM telephony and WhatsApp if you go quiet.
- Surge detection. DBSCAN clustering flags hotspots live, a pulsing ring visible on every open map.
- Quick SOS. 112, Women's Helpline, Childline, nearest police station, one tap.
- Receipts on everything. Every news pin links its article. Community reports stay marked unverified until voted on.
- Stack. Supabase PostgREST + Realtime, pg_cron, GitHub Actions, KDE heatmap, PWA.
Side quests
shipped, not shelvedITM Showcase
A permanent archive for ITM University student projects so good work stops dying in Google Drive. Knowledge-lineage graph shows what was built on what. Presented as my minor project.
↗Hatricks
An AI companion with persistent memory. Started as a SQLite memory system, rebuilt as an Android app. Smoke aesthetic, weirdly comforting.
↗Sigma Boi Koko
Chrome/Brave extension that boosts any tab to 1000%, with bass and voice boost and per-tab memory. Built with kokodaki because YouTube is too quiet.
↗Everything else
LifeOS, Meanie (an app that's intentionally rude), a Tauri + Rust music player, a mind-map tool, an LLM code-diff pipeline, and whatever dropped this week.
I don't read the manual. I plug it in and watch what explodes.
The best documentation is the error message you get after you've already broken it. That's where the learning lives: in the debris, figuring out why it went wrong and what to do differently. CS student by enrollment. Builder, gamer, chaos engineer by personality. If a technology just dropped, I'm probably already inside it.
Shivam Tiwari, 2026
Building something? I'm in.
Collabs, co-founding, hackathon teams, or just breaking things together. If it's interesting I'll reply fast. If it's boring I'll still reply, just slower.
SocialEdger
Most people join a startup. I co-founded one and then rebuilt it from the inside.
SocialEdger is a Web3 reputation ecosystem: identity, membership, reputation, tokens, governance. Six layers. One blueprint. Built for the USA and UAE. I signed on for growth, took over the frontend repo, ran the security audit myself, and wrote the docs the engineers now build from.
