What ShepHertz does

ShepHertz is a privately held applied AI platform company headquartered in India, founded in 2010 by Siddhartha Chandurkar. It has shipped commercial AI/ML systems since 2012, including one of India's first commercial facial recognition deployments, and now serves 80,000+ customers across 150 countries with 108B+ API calls processed in production. The company is organized as a house of brands across three pillars: (1) AgentAnywhere, a sovereign agentic AI platform for regulated enterprises and governments featuring a dual-protocol MCP + A2A gateway, governance-aware Model Hub, Custodian compliance engine with TrustFabric-signed evidence packs, and the Veil data masking add-on (also available as open-source AgentAnywhere Core); (2) the Anywhere Suite of applied-vision and behavioral-intelligence platforms — wAnywhere for workforce intelligence, BrowseAnywhere as a zero-trust enterprise browser, SafeAnywhere for family and school digital safety, and TalentAnywhere for talent assessment and proctoring; and (3) AI-Infused SDLC, an embedded engineering service pairing senior engineers with an agent catalog to compress full software delivery cycles inside enterprise delivery teams.

The business operates on a subscription-recurring model for the AgentAnywhere platform, BrowseAnywhere licensing, and the Anywhere Suite, paired with professional-services revenue from the deliberately scarce AI-Infused SDLC pods. Go-to-market is dual-track: enterprise field sales targeting BFSI, healthcare, and government buyers with sovereign deployment requirements, and product-led growth for the workforce and consumer platforms (SafeAnywhere on Google Play Store). Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed; SafeAnywhere is subsidized for schools that cannot pay. Notable enterprise customers include Reliance, Tata, BSE, Indigo, Kotak Securities, Edelweiss, ABP News, Hungama, Imagica, Spencer's, L&T Realty, and VuLiv. Compliance certifications include SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, GDPR, and a full 26/26 mapping to India's RBI FREE-AI framework, with continuous testing against OWASP Top 10 and SANS Top 25. The company has 51-100 employees, no external institutional investors beyond a 2014 seed/angel round of $1.2M, and is led by founder Siddhartha Chandurkar (CEO), Anuraag Kochhar (CTO), and a deliberately senior leadership team.

Core offering

ShepHertz builds applied AI platforms organized across three pillars: (1) AgentAnywhere, a sovereign agentic AI platform for regulated enterprises and governments with dual-protocol MCP+A2A control plane, Model Hub, Custodian continuous compliance, and Veil data masking; (2) the Anywhere Suite (wAnywhere, BrowseAnywhere, SafeAnywhere, TalentAnywhere) applying computer vision and behavioral intelligence to workforce intelligence, zero-trust enterprise browsing, child digital safety, and talent verification; and (3) AI-Infused SDLC, an embedded engineering practice pairing senior engineers with an agent catalog to compress full software delivery cycles inside enterprise teams.

Product overview

ShepHertz is an applied AI platform company founded in 2010, operating as a house of brands organized across three pillars. The first pillar, AgentAnywhere, is a sovereign agentic AI platform for regulated enterprises and governments, supporting MCP + A2A agent protocols, governance-aware model management, sovereign deployment, and continuous compliance via Custodian with TrustFabric-signed evidence packs — also available as open-source (AgentAnywhere Core) and with a data-masking add-on (AgentAnywhere Veil). The second pillar, the Anywhere Suite, comprises four applied-vision and behavioral-intelligence platforms targeting distinct audiences: wAnywhere for workforce intelligence and compliance monitoring, BrowseAnywhere as a zero-trust enterprise browser for endpoint security, SafeAnywhere for child digital safety (Shield, Browse, Guard), and TalentAnywhere for talent assessment and proctoring. The third pillar is the AI-Infused SDLC — an engineering delivery service embedding senior engineers and AI agents inside enterprise teams to compress full SDLC cycles from years to quarters, integrated with Jira, Jenkins, SonarQube, GitHub, Bitbucket, and Azure DevOps.
