Mygate
Mygate is India’s largest & most comprehensive community management and accounting ERP platform, built ground up for gated communities. Founded in 2016 by Vijay Arisetty, Abhishek Kumar, and Shreyans Daga, the company began with a simple idea to address the nagging problems of everyday gated community life. Today, Mygate is used by over 5 million residents & 27,000+ housing societies across India, making it the most widely adopted platform in the space. What started with a visitor management module has evolved into a 250+ feature ERP suite, covering everything a management committee needs to run a society efficiently and transparently. The platform includes a robust finance and accounting module, trusted by thousands of treasurers and auditors for its depth and reliability. It handles invoicing, collections, TDS, GST, reconciliation, budgeting, audit logs, and vendor payments, all tailored specifically for the needs of residential societies. Unlike generic accounting software, Mygate’s system understands the nuances of gated community finances from corpus tracking to penalty logic to compliance-ready reporting. Alongside accounting, the app enables facility bookings, communication, complaints tracking, document sharing, polling, staff attendance, vehicle databases, asset tracking, and much more. All features are modular, mobile-first, and built with a deep understanding of how gated communities function on the ground. Rated highest on both Google Play and the App Store, Mygate continues to lead on product depth, adoption, and ease of use. In 2024, the company also launched Mygate Locks, a line of smart door locks that integrates directly with the app part of a broader push to create a connected, seamless living experience across digital and physical infrastructure. What sets Mygate apart is its singular focus on building a full-stack ERP for communities. Where others offer partial solutions, Mygate is the only player delivering scale, depth & innovation.

BeatpulseLabs
We create high-fidelity custom multimedia AI training datasets for Enterprise clients. The BeatpulseLabs platform effectively accumulates and harnesses human intelligence, judgement and taste and converts it into actionable signals for the machine layer. BeatpulseLabs was founded on a simple observation. Safe AI adoption in the enterprise requires a different approach to training data. Datasets need to be purpose-built and high-fidelity. They need to be based on custom annotation schemas and continuous annotator feedback loops should be baseline, not an option. Background: The first wave of AI was built on public datasets, labelled at scale by generalists working on rigid schemas. This worked well for the multi-purpose models of the past. But enterprise AI deployment requires something different. Custom annotation environments. Domain experts who understand the data they are working with. Tailor-made datasets grounded in a company's own proprietary information. Low data drift. High fidelity. Schemas that adapt to each use case rather than forcing the use case to adapt to the schema. Proprietary Datasets: Beatpulse curates, retrieves, structures and labels vast amounts of high-quality, human-generated content that has never before been accessible to AI for training or inference. Our datasets are enriched with in-house metadata preparation and Human-in-the-Loop (HITL) annotation. We focus on 4 key domains: Voice, Video, Music and Radar. 1M+ hours of video · 4M+ hours of editorial speech in 25+ languages · 850K+ music assets · +10TB of professionally labelled radar readings detecting UAVs and USVs.
