About Ashish Rawat

Ashish Rawat is a full-stack developer who has shipped web products for more than ten years and runs HrefLabs, a small founder-run company building AI products. Ashish built Minform, a no-code form, quiz and calculator builder, and has written that it was built quietly without promotion; HrefLabs now lists Minform as acquired.

The main product is Kitful, an AI blogging suite that researches what customers search for, writes posts in a brand's voice, publishes them and then watches Search Console to improve pages that slip. It came about after manual blogging was eating most of Ashish's time. HrefLabs also runs SignupScore, an API that flags disposable, role-based and risky email signups.

They are also active in the Framer community and take on freelance development work.
