We build AI ventures
for Bharat.
Sitio Labs originates and ships AI-native products from first principles. We don't pitch decks. We don't run sprints for clients. We identify a problem, apply AI as the primary leverage, and bring a product to market — fast. Four products live. One CTO partnership. All built in Mumbai, all built for India.
Most studios build for clients. We build for markets. The distinction is everything.
Sitio Labs is an AI venture studio based in Mumbai. We use AI as the primary building material — not a feature added later, but the foundation layer every product is engineered on from day one.
Our model is simple: identify an underserved market in Bharat, apply AI to create 10× leverage, and ship a product people actually pay for. No committees. No RFPs. No months of discovery. We move fast because the tools demand it, and because India can't afford to wait.
PORTFOLIO
Four products. One studio.
Each product solves a real problem for a real market in India. No pivots, no feature factories — just focused execution.

HOW WE BUILD
The Studio Model
Three phases. Every product. No exceptions.
Originate
We identify underserved markets in Bharat — education, jewellery, MSME operations, retail tech — and validate whether AI can create a genuine 10× advantage over existing solutions. If yes, we build.
Build with AI
Every Sitio Labs product is AI-native from day one. AI is the engine, not a feature. ZerocodeAI ships apps. Mentzi generates lesson content. AurumOS runs intelligence for jewellery manufacturers. Depo powers hyperlocal discovery for tier 2 and 3 cities. The AI layer is what makes each product defensible.
Own and Scale
We retain ownership in every product we originate. For external ventures, we structure CTO partnerships — equity or revenue share, never a project invoice. We have no interest in shipping something and walking away.
ABOUT THE STUDIO
Built in Mumbai.
Thinking for Bharat.
Sitio Labs is an AI venture studio based in Mumbai. Founded in 2024, we originate and ship AI-native products from first principles — identifying underserved markets in India, applying AI as the primary building material, and bringing products to market fast.
We don't build for clients. We build for markets. Every product Sitio Labs ships is something we own — designed, engineered, and grown by the studio. This keeps us honest: if a product fails, we fail with it. If it succeeds, we succeed with it.
Four products live in the market. One CTO partnership. All built in Mumbai. All built to last.
BY THE NUMBERS
Results, not promises.
WORK WITH US
Three ways to build
with Sitio Labs.
No vague retainers. No discovery workshops. Pick the engagement model that fits where you are.
Venture Build
We co-found. You keep domain.
For Early-stage founders with a market thesis and no technical team
We co-found the product with you. Sitio Labs takes an equity stake and builds the complete technology — product, design, backend, mobile, AI. You bring the domain expertise and market access. We bring everything else.
- Full-stack product built to production standard
- Founding CTO and design partner
- AI-native architecture from day one
- Skin in the game on both sides
CTO Partnership
We own the technology. You own the market.
For Ventures that are live but need serious technical leadership
We embed as your fractional CTO and engineering team. We own the technology roadmap, make architecture decisions, manage the build, and scale the product. This is the model we use with VDOlocal.
- Senior technical leadership without the hire
- Full engineering execution
- Patent-ready IP architecture where applicable
- Long-term roadmap ownership
AI Sprint
One product. Three weeks. Done.
For Established ventures that need one AI product shipped fast
We scope, design, and ship one well-defined AI product or feature in 3–4 weeks. Fixed scope. Fixed fee. Full source code ownership.
- One production-ready AI product
- No agencies, no delays, no excuses
- Full source code — yours forever
- Fixed scope, no surprises
