New Firm SifraNi Labs Targets AI, Cyber Risk and Decision Systems
New Delhi — SifraNi Labs, a newly launched technology and strategy firm, is entering the market with a focus on helping organizations navigate complexity at the intersection of IT systems, artificial intelligence, and strategic communications, as governments and enterprises grapple with increasingly interconnected digital environments.
Founded by Zahack Tanvir, SifraNi Labs positions itself as a research-driven consultancy designed to address problems that are difficult to define at the outset—where data exists, systems are operational, but decision-makers lack clarity.
Tanvir, who has an academic and research-oriented background in technology and systems analysis, said the firm was created to bridge a growing gap between advanced technical capability and effective decision-making.
SifraNi Labs works across IT architecture, applied AI and analytics, cybersecurity and system risk, research and advisory services, and strategy and communications. Its approach emphasizes first-principles analysis—examining systems, assumptions, and data flows before recommending solutions or interventions.
The firm’s name reflects that philosophy. “Sifr” traces its roots to Shunya, the concept of zero articulated by Aryabhata, which introduced a foundational abstraction that made large-scale computation and system-building possible. The concept later evolved through the work of Al-Khwarizmi, whose algebraic and algorithmic methods laid the groundwork for modern computation.
SifraNi Labs draws on that lineage to emphasize starting from fundamentals—stripping away assumptions to understand how systems actually behave in practice.
The launch comes as organizations face mounting pressure from digital transformation, AI adoption, cybersecurity threats, and regulatory scrutiny. According to industry observers, the demand for firms that can integrate technical analysis with strategic communication is growing, particularly in public-sector and high-accountability environments.
“Technology has advanced faster than our ability to govern, explain, and operationalize it,” Tanvir said. “Services that combine deep technical understanding with clear strategic communication are no longer optional—they’re necessary.”
SifraNi Labs said it will focus on long-term system reliability, responsible technology use, and decision-making that can withstand operational, regulatory, and public scrutiny.
As digital systems become more complex and AI-driven decisions more consequential, SifraNi Labs aims to position itself as a partner for organizations seeking clarity before action, rather than remediation after failure.
