What realfast does

realfast (legal entity Ontic Pte Ltd, Singapore) is an AI-native IT services company founded in 2022-2023 by Sidu Ponnappa and Aakash Dharmadhikari, both previously co-founders of C42 (acquired by Gojek in 2015). The company targets the $21B Salesforce Partner Ecosystem by delivering Agentforce and enterprise AI agent implementations 3X-20X faster than traditional consulting approaches, using a Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE) model that combines human judgment with AI agents operating on frontier models from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and Salesforce.

Its core technology stack is the proprietary Exo platform: ExoCode provides secure, compliant AI development for regulated enterprises; ExoWork is a low-code AI app builder for non-technical teams; and ExoCortex maintains enterprise context graphs that make organizational memory queryable. Supporting offerings include ExoHelp (a Salesforce delivery AI assistant), a Rapid AI Transformation practice (legacy migration, AI-ready platform rebuild, agentic ops), and an AI Training Practice with Superhuman CFO, COO, CRO, and CHRO programs. The company holds ISO 27001:2022 and SOC 2 Type II certifications and maintains HIPAA-compliant delivery for healthcare clients.

realfast generates revenue primarily through quote-based, project-based professional services engagements for enterprise and mid-market clients, complemented by a $499 AI roadmap assessment product introduced in 2025 as a funnel tool. Named customers span recruitment (TASC), real estate (Houzbay), corporate services SaaS, and UK financial services. Distribution is sales-led, primarily through website demo requests requiring work email and LinkedIn profile, supplemented by content marketing, joint webinars with Salesforce, and a referral channel. The company is backed by Peak XV Partners and RTP Global, operates from Singapore with US operations led by Managing Director Paulomi Gudka, and employs approximately 30 people.
