Who I Am

More than
just code.

I'm Franklin Babu — a builder, problem-solver, and relentless learner from Chennai. I don't just write software; I architect solutions that change how people live and work.

My Story

A student who
builds things.

I'm not your typical developer. While most people pick one specialisation and stay there, I've deliberately built across every layer of the stack — frontend, backend, machine learning, and blockchain — because the most interesting problems don't respect boundaries.

My journey began in 12th grade with a Python game project built with two friends. That project wasn't polished. It was inefficient. But it lit something — the realisation that you can make a computer do anything you imagine. From that moment, I've never stopped building.

Today I ship production systems: a parametric insurance platform protecting India's gig workers with stacked ML ensembles, 7-layer fraud detection, and automated UPI payouts — or a blockchain supply chain giving farmers transparent, fair compensation on Ethereum. Real problems. Real code. Real impact.

I'm based in Chennai, studying and building simultaneously, with one goal: to create technology that is as rigorous under the hood as it is beautiful on the surface.

AI-First Thinking
I approach every problem asking: where can intelligence make this smarter? From fraud detection to income prediction — ML isn't a feature, it's a foundation.
Decentralisation Believer
Blockchain isn't a buzzword for me — it's a tool. I use Ethereum and Solidity to remove exploitative middlemen and create systems nobody can tamper with.
Ship-First Mentality
I build for real users in production. Both KAVACH and AgriChain are live on Vercel today. I believe shipping something imperfect beats planning something perfect.
Lifelong Student
I completed my first project in 12th grade. Every repo since has been a lesson. I build to learn and learn to build better — the loop never ends.
Journey

How I got here.

2023 · 12th Grade
Knockout Games
Python · First Project
Built a Single Elimination Bracket game with two friends during 12th grade. Inefficient, over-engineered for a student — but completely mine. The spark that started everything.
2024
Entering Web3
Solidity · Ethereum · Hardhat
Learned blockchain development and shipped AgriChain — a decentralised agricultural supply chain with Solidity smart contracts, automated payments, and QR traceability. Live on Vercel.
2025
Full-Stack + ML Convergence
React · Node.js · XGBoost · LightGBM
Expanded into machine learning and full-stack development simultaneously. Trained stacked ensemble models, built FastAPI microservices, and integrated Claude API chatbots.
2026 · Now
KAVACH — Production Insure-Tech
React PWA · FastAPI · XGBoost · Ethereum · Razorpay
Shipped a complete production-grade insure-tech platform protecting India's 12M+ gig workers. Stacked ML ensemble, 7-layer fraud engine, automated UPI payouts, and on-chain audit trail. The biggest thing I've built.
