Hi — I'm Anjali Srivastava

Senior product designer making AI, dashboards & contact-centers feel less like work — for the thousands of people stuck using them all day. Five years deep in enterprise SaaS, CCaaS & the unglamorous problems nobody else wants.

( THE SHORT VERSION )

I started in computer science, which means I've watched plenty of smart engineering get buried under interfaces nobody could use. That's the part I couldn't let go of. Now I sit between what's technically possible and what's actually usable — turning powerful, complicated systems into something a tired human can navigate without a manual.

Four worlds

— the problems I keep circling back to. Mind the wet paint.
01 — EXOTEL · OMNI-CHANNEL WORKSPACE

Contact Center Workspace

A 12-year-old contact-center tool, rebuilt into a single calm workspace — so agents stop fighting tabs and start solving.

my slice — I led research, UX and handoff end to end · ECC engineering owned the build · PM owned rollout
02 — CONVERSATIONAL AI

Chatbots, with manners

Natural conversation flows with sentiment analysis baked in — so the bot knows when to crack on, and when to fetch a human. Fast to deploy, polite by default, on every channel your customer already lives on.

Voice-Activated Appointment Scheduler

An agent that runs my Google Calendar by voice or text — booking, cancelling and rescheduling without me lifting a finger. It checks conflicts and proposes alternatives before it acts.
