Kathan Shah — Co-Founder

A visionary with a penchant for seeing the unseen, I have always been driven by an insatiable curiosity and a desire to make a lasting impact. My roots trace back to Palanpur in Banaskantha district, where my early fascination for IT gadgets and the allure of coding ignited in the absence of expansive internet access. From coding HTML as a seventh-grader, to mastering my skills in the esteemed H.L. Institute of Computer Science in Ahmedabad, my journey has been marked by a blend of self-driven learning and formal education. Diverging from the software world, I briefly ventured into our family business in West Africa. However, the pull of the tech domain was irresistible. On my return, I immersed myself in developing software, transitioning from frontend to backend complexities. My entrepreneurial spirit led to the inception of a training startup, which eventually pivoted to catering to software projects. A significant milestone was spearheading the tech development for 'Tully' for Joyner Lucas, taking it from the first line of code to securing a whopping $6M investment from Sony. Parallelly, I identified a significant gap in the IT hardware rental sector. What began as a side hustle of buying and reselling laptops transformed into a full-fledged venture addressing the pain points of IT hardware investment for corporates. As of 2023, my company boasts 2000+ active rental laptops and Macbooks catering to businesses across India. What sets us apart? While most competitors still rely on traditional methods, we're revolutionizing the sector by leveraging software solutions to offer an end-to-end service – from logistics to support. With an unwavering ambition and a robust team by my side, I'm on a mission to simplify IT equipment rentals, offering businesses not just a product, but an unparalleled experience.
