A bitabout me.

Vinay Batra
Vinay BatraFounder · Investor · Greater Philadelphia

I’m a junior at Council Rock High School South, where I’m a Chief Science Officer, president of the Environmental Action Club, and competition chair for our FBLA chapter.

Outside school I play right back for an EDP soccer team, write book reviews for the local library, and end every week at Playa Bowls. The map has the rest. Drag it around. More about me →

For local businesses

I partner with local businesses to design AI-powered solutions that help them run better. Before I build anything, I spend time with the owner learning how the business actually runs. Then I build around that, walk them through it, and keep improving it once they're using it.

Moreco Properties

Rental site + owner dashboard

A family-owned rental business in Trenton and Hamilton, NJ that ran on paper and word of mouth. The public site lists open units and answers renter questions with an AI assistant that reads the live listings. Behind the login is the part the owner uses every day: a rent ledger for every unit that matches her own books to the cent.

  • ▹Live vacancy listings
  • ▹AI renter chat on live data
  • ▹Inquiry, maintenance, waitlist forms
  • ▹Rent roll + outstanding balances
  • ▹Expenses by tax category
  • ▹Year-end PDF report

One South Sycamore

Website for a Newtown flower shop

A one-man flower shop in Newtown, PA with no set menu. Vince builds each arrangement from whatever came in that morning, so a catalog with prices would have been wrong for him. The site is his photos, where the flowers come from, and a way to call or text. Built free.

  • ▹3D globe of where the flowers grow
  • ▹Full-quality photo hero
  • ▹Gallery, about, and visit pages
  • ▹Call or text, no forms
  • ▹Fully static, no database

ChapterPrep

Free FBLA, DECA and HOSA prep

Free competition prep for FBLA, DECA and HOSA, used by 350+ students. Practice tests are built from each event's official outline, and every math answer is checked by a calculator before a student sees it. Every event has its own home with a plan in plain words and a chat that knows the event, and every test area has a lesson and flashcards. Role plays and presentations get an AI judge that scores on the event's own rating sheet, and advisors can run a live mock competition for the whole chapter. When FBLA sent a cease and desist over the old name, I rebuilt and rebranded the whole thing in five days.

  • ▹76 FBLA, 60 DECA, 90 HOSA events
  • ▹139 with practice tests
  • ▹Every question checked twice
  • ▹AI judge on 117 events, typed or spoken
  • ▹Lessons and flashcards for every test area
  • ▹A chat that knows your event
  • ▹Live mock competition with a join code
  • ▹Advisor readiness report

SELF-MANAGED PORTFOLIO

Long-term Investor

Jun 2021 - Present

Bought my first stocks at 11. These days I pay attention to what I own rather than where prices might go: how concentrated I am, how my holdings move together, and how it all stacks up against the S&P 500. Corvo is the tool I wanted for that.

What peoplesay.

Vinay demonstrated a strong combination of curiosity, technical ability, and initiative. He was quick to grasp complex concepts, translate them into practical solutions, and continuously iterate to improve model performance. I'm confident he will continue to do excellent work at the intersection of finance and AI.
Anushka GoyalDirector of Programs, BetterMind Labs
Vinay has dedicated his free time to our community by writing monthly book reviews for our young adult patrons. He has shown consistency and dependability, and challenged himself by reviewing different genres to reach a broader audience. I would strongly recommend Vinay Batra without hesitation.
