Most businesses in India are losing customers to competitors who are easier to find online.

Your product or service is good. Your team works hard. But your digital presence isn't working for you — no website that converts, no system to track enquiries, no automation to save time.

Customers find your competitor on Google instead. Leads fall through WhatsApp. Invoices are still done in Excel. Sound familiar?

I bridge that gap. Not with expensive agencies or complex software — but with practical technology that fits your budget, your team, and your goals.

And unlike most tech consultants, I've been on your side of the table. I co-built DVG Benne Dosa and scaled it from 1 to 8 outlets in 18 months. I know what a business owner actually needs — and what just sounds good in a pitch.

I work best with businesses like these

Clinics & healthcare providers

Appointment booking, patient communication, online presence, and billing — without complex hospital software.

CA firms & professional services

A website that brings in enquiries, client portals, digital invoicing, and document workflows.

Restaurants, QSR & food businesses

I've built and scaled a QSR franchise. I know your ops, your margins, your chaos. POS, ordering, vendor management, franchisee systems.

Retailers, D2C & service businesses

Online catalogue or store, WhatsApp automation, inventory and billing — practical systems that your team will actually use.

Most tech consultants have never run a business. I have.

I know what it means to worry about a vendor not showing up, a franchisee underperforming, a month where revenue dips and you don't know why. I've sat across the table from the same problems you're dealing with — and then had to figure out which technology actually helps.

I started at TCS in 2008 — including two years in the UK — and spent years on enterprise CRM, ECM, and infrastructure for global clients. I co-founded DVG Benne Dosa, ran franchise expansion, then co-founded ATHRU where I've delivered ERPNext for a software company, healthcare HIS for two hospitals, and Medverse for home healthcare. Operations and margins matter more than any slide deck.

That experience changed how I think about technology for businesses. I don't recommend tools because they're trendy. I recommend them because I know what a 10-person business actually needs to run, grow, and not waste money.

Hi, I'm Shiv.

I've spent 18 years in technology — starting at TCS in 2008 (including two years on assignment in the UK), then enterprise CRM, ECM, and infrastructure for global clients. I co-founded ATHRU Technologies in 2022.

At ATHRU I've implemented ERPNext for a software organisation, deployed ERPNext healthcare as a hospital information system (HIS) for two healthcare companies, and built AthruSaaS — multi-tenant ERP on Azure. In 2024 I launched Medverse; we're piloting the platform and building a home healthcare network — Medverse was selected among IPV Ventures Top 15 startups.

In 2018 I co-founded Akshobya Foods and started DVG Benne Dosa. From 2018 to 2020 we expanded the franchise network; we scaled from 1 outlet to 8 and from ₹1 Cr to ₹2 Cr ARR. I managed franchisees, vendors, kitchen ops, and the P&L.

Education: 2008 — BE in Information Science, BMS College of Engineering. 2023 — Certificate, Post Graduate Program in Data Science & Business Analytics, Great Learning. 2025 — Master of Data Science, Deakin University, Australia (online).

Business owners don't need more software options. They need someone who understands their business first — then brings the right technology. That's what I do.
