Our Story & Founder

Building the
Trust Layer
for Bharat's Education

Gradify Labs is a deep-tech startup building open AI + blockchain infrastructure to issue, verify, and manage academic credentials — combining machine intelligence with permissionless cryptographic rails to make credential fraud impossible and trusted education records accessible to every institution, employer, and student.

Gradify Labs — building verifiable credential infrastructure for India
What is Gradify?

AI + Blockchain infrastructure for verified learning

Gradify Labs combines AI and permissionless blockchain to build secure, tamper-evident credential infrastructure. AI powers fraud-pattern detection and analytics; blockchain provides the immutable cryptographic layer.

Tamper-Evident Architecture

Credentials are cryptographically anchored on-chain, immutable and independently verifiable by anyone, anywhere.

Global Accessibility

Verify any credential in seconds with no intermediary, no registrar wait, from anywhere in the world.

Near-Instant Verification

Any third party can verify a credential independently in under 3 seconds.

Why Now

A national-scale problem, structurally unsolved

Credential verification in India is slow, manual, and trivially gamed. Gradify replaces trust-by-paperwork with trust-by-mathematics, the kind of category-defining infrastructure that only gets built once.

Our Purpose

Mission & Vision

Mission

To build a tamper-proof, open AI + blockchain ecosystem for verifiable records, spanning academic credentials, professional certifications, healthcare records, property and land titles, government documents, and institutional records. We make verification instant, fraud impossible, and every critical document portable across institutions, organizations, and borders. We build in alignment with NEP 2020, Digital India, and the Startup India ecosystem.

Vision

A world where every critical document, whether academic, medical, legal, professional, or civic, is universally trusted, instantly verifiable, and seamlessly portable across borders. Owned by the individual, not locked inside any institution's or organization's server. We are building the infrastructure that will power the future of trust across education, healthcare, real estate, and governance globally.

Our Foundation

What we stand for

Integrity

Trust earned through cryptography, not claims. What we anchor on-chain is true by mathematics.

Built for Bharat

India-first by design, aligned with NEP 2020, Digital India, and the Startup India ecosystem.

Open Rails

Permissionless infrastructure with no vendor lock-in. Records outlive any single company.

Individual-Owned

The holder owns their record for life, portable, private, and independently verifiable, whether it's a degree, a health report, a title deed, or a government document.

Advisory Board

Guided by people who built this space

Gradify Labs is advised by academics, computer scientists, and quality-assurance leaders across India's universities — bringing accreditation, research, and engineering depth to every decision we make.

Policy Advisory
Accreditation bodies are moving towards verifiable, audit-ready evidence. Gradify's criterion-mapped credential trail is exactly the kind of infrastructure IQAC and NAAC teams need to stop reconciling records by hand.

Technical Advisory
Public verification with no login is the right model for India. Employers shouldn't have to contact registrars for something that should be a 3-second check — Gradify gets that right where most platforms don't.

Assistant Professor in Computer Science & Engineering at IIIT Surat. Research spans distributed systems and computer science, with a focus on secure, verifiable systems applicable to academic credentialing.
