Founders

  • name: Aarjav Trivedi
    title: Founder/CEO
    role: CEO
    bio: Started my tech life learning infosec & cs at Georgia Tech. First notable product I worked on was trustedsource.com - a reputation score for every IP in the world. We applied SVMs & clustering to internet traffic from most of the F500 to detect zombies (acquired by McAfee). My lack of mobility as a student and immigrant left a mark. Quit my job in '09 to obsess over software to Move the world better / faster/ cheaper! Been doing that ever since, mostly at Ridecell.
