CTO PARTNERSHIP
India's video-first storefront for physical stores. We built the technology stack.
India's first video-first digital storefront for physical store owners. Sitio Labs serves as technology partner, architecting and building the platform across web, mobile, AI, and infrastructure.
Technology partner. Sitio Labs architected and built the platform, and continues to drive engineering execution alongside the VDOlocal team.
Most studios build for clients. We build for markets. The distinction is everything.
Sitio Labs is a global AI venture studio, headquartered in Mumbai. We use AI as the primary building material, not a feature added later, but the foundation layer every product is engineered on from day one.
Our model is simple: find a market with a real, unmet need, apply AI to create 10× leverage, and ship a product people actually pay for. No committees. No RFPs. No months of discovery. We move at the speed the tools now allow, and we bring that same speed to the founders we build for.

02 — Working with us
We take on a small number of outside builds each year, on terms that keep us accountable for the outcome: equity, revenue share, or a fixed scope we'd bet our name on. Marketing, branding and events run as a full-service agency for any business.
We co-found. You bring the market.
Early-stage founders with a market thesis and no technical team
We test the idea with real users, design the brand and product, build the first version to a proper production standard, and stand next to you at launch as your founding technical partner.
We build the technology. You own the market.
Ventures that are live but need serious technical leadership
We embed as your fractional CTO, a senior head of technology on a part-time basis, plus the engineering team behind them: architecture, roadmap, hiring, AI strategy. This is the model we run with VDOlocal today.
One product. Three weeks. Done.
Established teams that need one well-defined AI product shipped fast
We scope, design, and ship one production-ready AI product or feature in 3–4 weeks. Fixed scope. Fixed fee. Full source code ownership, yours forever.
The part everyone sees.
Teams that need a brand and product design practice, not a logo file
Brand identity, product design, UI/UX systems, and motion, the same design practice behind Mentzi, Depo, and this website. Offered selectively, usually inside a venture build; occasionally standalone for teams we believe in.

VDOlocalSocial media & marketing03 — Why a studio
AI has collapsed the cost of building software. The best products of this decade will come from small, AI-native teams moving at the speed the tools now allow, not from big teams with big budgets.
Sitio Labs exists to build those products, our own, and a select few for founders we believe in. We use AI as the primary building material, keep design and engineering under one roof, and ship in weeks what used to take a funded team a year.
ZerocodeAI is both a product and our internal leverage, every venture ships faster because the last one taught the system something.
No handoffs, no telephone. The person who drew the screen sits next to the person who shipped it.
Idea to market in 8–16 weeks isn't a promise, it's the observed cadence across Mentzi, Depo, and ZerocodeAI.
The studio loop
Live in the market before writing code. Field visits, not surveys.
A paying user is the only validation that counts.
AI-native from the first commit. 8–16 weeks, production standard.
In the user's language, on the user's device, at the user's price.
Instrument everything; keep what the market rewards.
The playbook, the infrastructure, and the distribution carry into the next bet.
Every turn of the loop makes the next venture cheaper, faster, and more likely to work. That's the studio's compounding asset.
See how this plays out: the venture studio model, jewellery manufacturing, or a fixed-scope MVP build.
04 — For investors
A venture studio is a portfolio with an engine attached. Sitio Labs originates its own products, owns equity in everything it ships, and reuses the same AI infrastructure, design system, and market playbook across every bet. Six products built in under two years, each one cheaper and faster to build than the last.
05 — Journal
On building AI products that ship, what works, what doesn't, and what we'd do differently.
Read the journalFractional hiring is projected to reach 35% of US businesses by the end of 2026. The CTOs driving that growth, and the premium rates, are the ones who've actually run AI systems in production.
82% of organizations already use AI agents. Only 44% have security policies to govern them. That gap is where agentic AI projects go to die.
Traffic from generative AI platforms is converting at meaningfully higher rates than traditional organic search. Most brands still have no idea whether they're even cited.
06 — Questions/ 08
Write to us with what you are working on. You will hear back within 24 hours.
Start a conversationA company that originates, builds, and owns its own products, repeatedly. We're not an agency you hire by the hour and not a VC that writes cheques. We're the builders, and we keep skin in everything we ship.
Selectively. A few outside builds a year, structured so we're accountable for the outcome: equity, revenue share, or a fixed scope we'd bet our name on. If you want a vendor, we're the wrong call. If you want a partner, start a conversation.
We embed as your technical partner: architecture, roadmap, hiring, AI strategy. Minimum six months, revenue share or equity plus retainer. VDOlocal runs on this model today, ask them how it's going.
In an AI Sprint, you do, full source, forever. In venture builds and CTO partnerships, ownership follows the equity structure we agree up front. No surprises in month six.
Eight to sixteen weeks from thesis to a live product. That's not a pitch, it's the observed cadence across all four of our own launches.
Yes. The studio is remote-first and works across the US, India, and the Gulf, invoicing in USD. Our team overlaps US working hours, and we've already shipped six products of our own, so you're not betting on a first attempt.
The studio is founder-funded and revenue-backed. If you're an investor who wants to understand the model, the portfolio, and the pipeline, request the studio memo, it's the honest version, not the billboard version.
One conversation. Tell us the market and the problem, we'll tell you within a week whether we're the right builders for it, and which model fits.
