Learn about our principles, our practice model, and how we work with clients. [Home](https://claritasone.com/) › **About Claritas One** Claritas One was founded in **Pune, India in 2016** by Pavan Hasabnis and Akshay Rajput on one thesis: strategy, engineering and growth should live under one roof, delivered by the same people who set the direction. ## The practice model Most consulting firms sell partner time and deliver with junior staff. Most engineering shops build what's specified and have no view on strategy. We do both — by keeping the team senior-only and the roster deliberately small. - **Two founders, active on every engagement.** - **Vetted specialist network** — cloud architects, data scientists, performance marketers, senior product engineers. - **Remote-first** with a physical Pune HQ for team assembly and client visits. ## How we engage - **Discovery** — 1–2 weeks. We build shared understanding of the problem before proposing a solution. - **Architecture** — decisions documented, trade-offs made explicit, risk surfaced early. - **Build** — senior delivery on tight cycles. Weekly demos, not monthly reports. - **Scale** — handover, runbooks, managed operations if wanted. ## Compliance posture SOC 2 aligned. ISO 27001 aligned. GDPR-compliant data handling. Mutual NDA before sensitive exchange. We treat security as a default, not a feature. ## Why founder-led matters The person who understands your business is the person who writes the code, ships the campaign, or signs off on the architecture. No translation layer. No telephone game.
