Bishal Karmakar is Co-Founder and CTO at ProjectX (YC P26), a cloud-native OS startup reimagining how humans and AI agents interact with computing by eliminating hardware dependency entirely.

Bishal studied at the Academy of Technology in West Bengal, India, where he developed deep expertise in systems engineering, cloud infrastructure, and full-stack development across Golang, Rust, C++, and TypeScript.

A self-described engineer who accidentally ended up leading tech at a startup, Bishal brings rare low-level systems knowledge combined with modern cloud and streaming infrastructure skills to a bold infrastructure problem.

At ProjectX, Bishal architects Infinity, a cloud-native OS where every app runs in the browser with its own dedicated GPU, supporting Linux, Windows, and full agentic workflows from laptops to XR devices.

ProjectX earned the World Trade Center Innovation Award, secured backing from Pontaq Ventures, and was accepted into Y Combinator's P26 batch, validating its mission to make computing limitless and accessible for all.
