About

After 13 rewarding years at Zoho, I decided to step back in mid-2025 to follow a personal curiosity about where technology is heading. I’ve spent the last several months in a learning phase—diving into the fundamentals of AI and researching how agentic systems are evolving. This journey led to co-founding Catalyst Ops with Kural. We are building SecuriX, an Agent Access Security Broker (AASB). Our focus is creating a "Trust Layer" that empowers autonomous agents without compromising personal data sovereignty. I’m a believer in Fair Source and building infrastructure that puts the user in control. Always happy to connect with fellow makers and anyone curious about the future of secure AI.

Blocking public AI doesn't work. Here is how we built a secure enterprise gateway instead. 🛠️

Hey everyone!
Over the last few months, my team and I have been talking to IT Directors and CISOs who are terrified of corporate data leaking into public LLMs. Their default reaction? Block ChatGPT on the company firewall.
Right now, if a company wants to give official AI access to its non-technical teams (Marketing, HR, Ops), the default move is to buy individual $20-$30/mo seats for ChatGPT Plus or Claude.

Here is the problem: Non-devs use AI dynamically. Your marketing lead might use it 10x a day, while your HR manager uses it 2x a week. Yet, you pay a flat enterprise rate for both, burning through capital for idle seats.
So, we are building SecuriX an enterprise LLM gateway that kills per-seat pricing.

Instead of individual licenses, we:
