Thomas Koshy — Founder
What if I told you there’s a whole industry that’s been untouched by technology? 🤯 A $140 billion one, in fact. Despite its scale and cultural depth, it’s been left behind in the wave of digital transformation that reshaped retail, fintech, and healthcare. That’s the world I’ve been obsessed with since 2016 — the world of salons, barbershops, and immersive brand experiences. I began with an automatic haircutting machine (yes, really) — and what started as curiosity turned into a mission. Today, through Flekt, I’m building technology that helps salon owners and stylists make more revenue through intelligence, not discounts. Our AI-powered hair and scalp analysis tool turns every consultation into a data-driven experience — helping stylists diagnose issues instantly, recommend the right products, and build deeper client trust. For salon owners, it means higher conversions, stronger retail sales, and a powerful brand experience that keeps customers coming back. We’re not just digitizing salons — we’re enabling them to scale smarter, earn more, and deliver personalized care at every chair. Alongside, through Kirix Innovations, I explore immersive technology and visual merchandising, helping brands and spaces tell stories that spark emotion and drive engagement. We blend design, technology, and behavior psychology to craft experiences that don’t just look stunning — they perform. Across both ventures, I’ve had the chance to collaborate with incredible teams, contribute to multiple startups, and learn what truly drives innovation — not just ideas, but execution with empathy. At my core, I’m an ambitious dreamer who believes that storytelling gives life to ideas and that the boldest visions are born from the willingness to change. Let me leave you with a thought that guides my journey: “If I told you 10 years from now your life would be exactly the same, would you be happy? If not, why are you afraid of change?” Change is the only constant to grow. 🌱 🤝 Let’s connect: 📧 thomaskoshy94@gmail.com
