About Us
K Vignesh (KV), CTO of Hyperverge, one of India's largest AI companies, transformed his passion for computer vision into solving real-world problems that genuinely benefit people. His journey began with developing a computer vision system for Southern Railways to inspect overhead power lines, addressing serious safety threats.
After facing disruption with their first consumer app, KV and his team made a pivotal decision during a "pantry meeting" to shift from "perception problems" to fundamental problems like financial inclusion, healthcare, and education. This led Hyperverge to become a B2B business building specialized AI models for niche, high-consequence use cases that general-purpose AI cannot handle effectively.
KV envisions Hyperverge as a "strong economic engine that powers contribution engines," exemplified through the Hyperverge Academy - a six-month bootcamp that upskills individuals from underprivileged backgrounds in tech skills, helping them secure jobs with at least 5 LPA salaries. His mission is to help 300-400 million people in India rise above sustainable income levels, supported by continuous learning from other entrepreneurs and daily meditation practice.
We interviewed Vignesh for "The Best Place to Build" podcast to explore his insights on building AI companies, solving fundamental societal problems, and creating meaningful impact through technology.
