Hetansh Doshi Jack of all trades
I like playing with code and chaos, and figuring both out.
Never been someone who can sit idle
I'm Hetansh Doshi, 19, from Mumbai. Currently doing Computer Engineering, but honestly that's just one piece of what I do. I've always wanted to build, experiment, lead, and turn ideas into reality, in whatever form that takes.
A Discord server, started for fun
It grew to 8,000+ members. I was running esports tournaments and events on it, figuring out leadership and community building way before I knew that's what it was called. That phase changed how I looked at technology and the internet entirely.
Into the creative side
Social media marketing, content creation, direction, design, photoshoots. I don't like sticking to one thing, so I kept doing multiple things at once instead of picking a lane. Scored 96 percentile in JEE along the way, but marks were never really the point for me.
Teaching myself to code
Mostly YouTube, online resources, and figuring stuff out myself. Curiosity about intelligent assistants slowly turned into actually writing the thing. Python and JavaScript became the tools I use to solve problems nobody asked me to solve.
Building Aethon into a company
An AI assistant I'm building solo, now working toward turning it into a real product people use. Alongside it, I still run client accounts and creative work. Fitness and discipline stay non-negotiable, because how you train your body shapes how you show up everywhere else.
I'm not trying to just watch the future happen. I want to be the one building it.
School, science, and engineering
A fairly linear academic path running quietly underneath everything else I've been building.

Aethon
Founder & Developer. An AI assistant built to talk, see, and act, not just chat back.
Aethon started with one obsession: Iron Man's JARVIS. Not just the idea of it, but actually building something close to it, alone.
I'm the sole founder and developer. No team, no co-founder. Every line of code, every design decision, every deployment call has been on me. Built primarily in Python and JavaScript, Aethon and its desktop assistant Zyra form a system designed to hold a conversation, watch your screen, and actually do things on your machine.
What started as curiosity turned into self-taught coding through YouTube and constant experimentation, and eventually into a working product I'm now building toward a real company.
The goal has never been just another AI chatbot. It's an assistant that can see your screen, hear you, and get things done, all while ensuring complete privacy and safety for the user.
What it does
Thirteen modes, one assistantVoice + Vision Default
- Natural voice conversation, Zyra replies in her own voice
- Camera vision, ambient and proactive, seeing before being asked
- PC control: open apps, volume, brightness, media, screen lock, screenshots
- Screen Vision reads your screen and explains it on command
- Watch Me Work gives passive screen tips, off by default
Meeting Mode
Records, transcribes, then hands back a summary with action items.
Task Manager
Add and complete tasks, by voice or by hand.
Writer
Drafts emails, messages and posts in your own voice and style.
Ask
AI chat with image and file support, plus memory that carries over across conversations.
Ask My Docs
Upload a PDF or text file and question it directly.
Co-pilot
Live meeting support with quick-ask and auto-listen.
Focus Coach
Pomodoro sessions with a camera-based mood check.
Sales Co-pilot
Live objection radar during calls, plus an automatic wrap-up.
Hand Gesture Control Touchless
- Full PC control with your hands, no mouse or keyboard
- Point to move the cursor, pinch to click
- Fist to scroll down, peace sign to scroll up
- Runs in the background, so it controls any app even with Aethon minimised
Phone Control via Telegram
- Control your PC from anywhere by sending commands on Telegram
- Take screenshots, open apps, search YouTube or Google, open any site
- Send WhatsApp messages by saved contact name
- Compose and send email, and manage contacts
Media Feed
Live news headlines and trending videos in a full-screen dashboard. Triggered by voice or button, videos play in-app with no browser redirect.
File Generation
Generates presentations and Word documents from a spoken topic. Files auto-save to the desktop and open automatically.
All vision and screen data is processed with user consent and privacy-first design principles.
Things I've built outside Aethon
A mix of tools, systems and experiments built across different languages. All of them are public on GitHub.
secpatch
JavaScript · MITA passive security auditor for web apps that got shipped fast. A lot of products go live without anyone reviewing them for exposed secrets or weak configuration, so secpatch scans a project and reports what actually needs fixing. Built as a zero-dependency Node CLI, so it doesn't drag in a supply chain of its own just to check yours.
india-dev-apis
Python · MITA set of open APIs giving developers clean access to Indian postal, banking and government data. The hard part isn't the endpoints, it's keeping them honest, so every endpoint is machine-checked daily and the results are public.
resume-analyzer
JavaA Java application that reads resumes and pulls them apart into structured, comparable information, cutting down the manual work in first-round screening.
Smart Traffic Signal Management
CA traffic signal control system written in C, modelling how signal timing can adapt to changing traffic conditions instead of running on fixed intervals.
GitHub profile README
PythonAn animated GitHub profile built out of hand-generated SVG plates rather than third-party widgets, so nothing depends on an external service staying online.
