Verve Media

What Verve Media does

Verve Media is a Mumbai-headquartered, full-service digital marketing and creative agency operating under the legal entity Code Septem Technologies LLP. Founded in 2016, it offers bundled services spanning film and photography production, digital marketing (SEO, social media, content strategy, paid campaigns), web development (custom builds, Shopify, WooCommerce, WordPress, Webflow), and graphic design. The agency serves a diversified client base of 100-150+ brands across enterprise (Uber, Shell, Wipro, UNDP, TEDx, NIIT, Sunteck, Shapoorji, Eaton, NABARD), D2C (Snitch, Rare Rabbit, LimeLight), and startup segments in India, with operational offices in Mumbai (Andheri East) and Bangalore (Indiranagar).

The company's technology stack integrates AI-assisted capabilities into its SEO and content workflows, including AI-led crawlers for website audits, AI-based content suggestions, semantic keyword mapping, and LLM-optimized website development designed to improve brand visibility in AI-generated search responses. In February 2026, Verve Media co-developed and launched an AI-led search visibility and SEO tool in partnership with Rank Up, marking its transition from pure services into a subscription-based product offering. The agency holds official Meta Business Partner and Google Partner (Agency ID 7653076799) certifications and maintains active earned media presence across 25+ industry publications.

Verve Media generates revenue primarily through project-based and retainer professional services engagements, with a newly introduced subscription revenue stream from the AI SEO tool. Its go-to-market combines direct enterprise sales, portfolio and case study distribution, content marketing and SEO (with 100+ published articles), organic social presence across LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTube, X, and Facebook, and channel partnership distribution via the Rank Up alliance. The company is bootstrapped, privately held, and founder-led by Co-Founders Vinay Singh Sangwan and Mayur Gole, with no disclosed external institutional funding.
