arsen kylyshbek

hey, i'm arsen :)

i'm a founding engineer at speko ( yc s26) - openrouter for voice ai.

i also make shaders - fast, zero-dependency backgrounds for the web.

on the side i built otpfill in one day - a mac menu-bar app that fills in the verification codes sites email you.

born and raised in kazakhstan. i was cto and cofounder of the personal ai company - $250k from entrepreneurs first, 2.9k github stars, #2 on product hunt.

i've been building since i was 10, and definitely will be building forever. i'm very much into product and design side, but can/would love to take over the deeper infra stuff too.

i'm also into airplanes - at some point i'll build a supersonic one!

spekospeko.ai

the best design i've ever built. a developer site for the router for voice ai - every speech model, benchmarked language by language, wired into one api.

i've been lucky with people. some of them i was born to. the rest i met in a school corridor, a dressing room, a group chat, a five-a-side pitch in kuala lumpur. the difference between friends and family stopped meaning much a while ago.

that's the part nobody warns you about when you move a lot: you don't lose people, you just end up with family in more time zones than you can keep track of. someone i love is awake right now, somewhere.

these are just a few of them:
