## About

Yaali Labs is founded by Ragothaman (Raghu) — 15+ years inside unicorns and F500s, 50+ projects, 20+ verticals, and $40M+ in measurable revenue impact.

The yaali (Tamil: யாளி) is a composite guardian — strength, wisdom, and motion held together. Yaali Labs is one operator who holds strategy, platform, and execution in the same view.

## Who it's for

SMBs, startups, and scaleups who are done waiting for AI to happen to them — founders, COOs, and product leaders who want someone in the trenches, not a team of twelve on a retainer.

## Services

- [Founder Sprint](/#offerings): 3–5 weeks — AI in your core business, compounding company context, revenue in your data, scale-up operating discipline for SMB.
- [Adoption Embed](/#offerings): External operator audit for VPs and C-suite — product/data gaps, revenue leakage, AI adoption unblocked.
- [Transformation Program](/#offerings): Embedded across strategy, platform, and execution — accountable to outcomes.
- [Execution Partner](/#offerings): Fractional leadership alongside your team — ship, don't simulate.

## How it works

- [Strategy / Platform / Execution](/#work): One operator, three modes — readiness audits through production.
- [Why one operator](/#work): AI-native is hard; half-building is worse. No handoff between strategy and execution.

## Proof and platforms

Operators and teams shipped alongside at Glovo, Zeta Global, SeLoger, Immoweb, Housell, Meilleurs Agents, Yad2, Samsung, PepsiCo, DoorDash, MetLife, Geico, Progressive, Qualifyze, Bayer, Mars, CVS, AstraZeneca, Walmart, ADP, Sears, Petco, and others.

## Selected outcomes

- €0.5M booked — new product line. Agents in the platform. Revenue, not pilots.
- €3.7M — new revenue line opened within a year using GenAI use cases.
- 23 → 1 — country-level chaos turned into one global KPI tree in 8 months.
- $12M New ARR — five quarters. ML and ranking wired into the P&L.

## Differentiation

- Not training or coaching — ship real outcomes alongside your team.
- Not a slide consultancy — one operator inside your business, scoped to outcomes.
- AI embedded where it moves margin, revenue, or speed — not where it demos well.
