About Sarthak Malhotra

Striving for excellence in everything I create across Adtech, Payments and AI.I design products that make AI trustworthy, measurable, and usable at scale. From evaluation pipelines for agents to synthetic data tools and platform adoption, I focus on turning complex AI research into products that real users adopt and love.At BespokeLabs AI, I led customer discovery with 30+ researchers, activated GTM channels, and drove product–market fit for our evaluation suite. This boosted beta adoption by 25% and I also organized a global reasoning hackathon with Hugging Face and Together AI, bringing in 500+ participants and accelerating adoption of our synthetic data generator, Curator.At Vanguard, I pioneered multi-step AI agents to evaluate RAG using golden datasets, reducing operational costs by 96% and enabling 70+ experiments in just two weeks. At Google, I drove Google Ads (Display & Video 360) platform adoption by launching features that drove $20M in incremental revenue, leading user research across 10+ countries, and helping enterprise clients optimize customer journeys at scale. At Kellogg, I deepened my expertise in building and scaling businesses centered on AI innovation.What drives me is blending rigorous evaluation with pragmatic product building, and finding the sweet spot where innovation meets impact. Whether it is small models, evaluation frameworks, or training and testing pipelines, I build what helps the AI ecosystem move forward with confidence.Outside of work, I am a curious cook, long-distance cyclist, and occasional thespian, always chasing new ways to create, learn, and tell stories.Reach out at s••••••••@gmail.com
