They had a powerful mission — a culturally rooted, AI-driven cybersecurity platform — but no brand to stand on, and no scalable AI engine to back it.
Billy and his team at Kartikey AI were building something rare: a cybersecurity platform inspired by precision, protection, and cultural depth. But while their vision was strong, their execution was fragmented. The brand felt generic. The AI models were in early research phase — slow, untested, and hard to integrate. And the timeline? Tight. 'We had the story,' Billy said. 'We just didn’t have the structure. Or the speed.' They needed AI that worked, a brand that meant something, and a partner who wouldn’t get lost in the noise.
You didn’t ask for a spec doc. You asked for the story — and then you built it. That’s not common. That’s rare.
Billy Singh
Lead Developer, Kartikey AI
We gave them a brand with soul — and AI with teeth.
We started with identity. The name 'Kartikey' carries legacy — a protector, a strategist. We built a visual identity and brand voice that honored that: bold, precise, and deeply intentional. The logo, color system, and tone were designed to resonate — not just look good. Then, we built the AI: custom models from scratch for traffic analysis, log anomaly detection, and resource behavior tracking. We fine-tuned them for accuracy, deployed them on **AWS SageMaker** for scalability, and wrapped them in **Lambda functions** for seamless integration with their Flask API. We even built a 'Join the Waitlist' landing page (Next.js + Vercel) to capture early interest — so they could launch with momentum.
Early Wireframes
Wireframe to Product
A culturally grounded brand. AI that works. And a platform ready for beta — all in 4 weeks.
In just one month, Kartikey AI went from concept to a fully branded, AI-powered platform with real-time threat analysis. The team finally had a brand they could stand behind — and AI models that didn’t just run, but *understood*. 'It was easy to just tell them a story,' Billy said, 'and they got back with the product.' No back-and-forth. No confusion. Just clarity, speed, and deep technical execution. The waitlist is growing. The backend is stable. And the AI? It’s already catching threats no one saw coming.
