About
Built by people who have done it before.
GaliGali Soft Labs is a deeptech company building the verifiable grounding layer for physical-world AI — software that lets models and agents observe, act on, and prove what happens in the real world, answering with evidence, not estimates. The stack is hardware-agnostic and software-defined, so it scales capital-light on a compounding moat of first-party data — with a programmatic-media business as its first revenue engine.
Built by a repeat founding team with a prior exit and deep capital-markets experience; the philosophy and platform live in our doctrine and thesis. Bhārat first. The world next.
“Before GaliGali, the founders built MedLabz — a digital diagnostics platform that was acquired by Medlife, now part of PharmEasy (API Holdings), one of India’s largest healthcare platforms.”
