About Mayvel

Twenty years of keeping watch over the work that matters.

We started in 2003 as ShlokLabs, building software for enterprises who could not afford to look away. Today, as Mayvel, we turn that same vigilance into industrial AI used around the world.

Vision & Mission

Mission
Empowering businesses with intelligent solutions that drive sustainable progress.

Driving sustainable progress through AI, data and engineering so our clients can operate smarter, decide faster, and grow with confidence.

The meaning of Mayvel

Mayvel draws on veille — wakefulness, the quiet discipline of keeping watch through the night. It is the perfect word for what our software does: it never sleeps, never looks away, and never lets a signal pass unnoticed. That single idea threads through everything — our products, our services, and the standards we hold ourselves to.

From a software lab to an industrial AI company.

2003

ShlokLabs is founded

We begin building custom software for enterprises that demand reliability above all — the start of two decades of delivery.

2008–2015

Proving it at scale

Inspection, infrastructure and fraud-detection systems for clients like Larsen & Toubro and Brakes India — and for landmark projects including the Statue of Unity.

2016–2021

From services to products

Hard-won field experience crystallises into products. Pro-Inspector takes inspection and audit fully paperless for industry.

2022

On the world stage

Our software supports demanding venues — including a FIFA 2022 stadium in Qatar and the world's largest cricket ground.

2023→

Mayvel & industrial AI

We rebrand to Mayvel and launch Seyo and BACSys — putting AI and edge intelligence directly into the hands of the field.

Five values, awake in everything we build.

These aren't poster values — they're how we hire, build and ship.

01

Vigilance

We sweat the signal others ignore. The difference between safe and sorry is usually something small that someone watched for.

02

Trust

Enterprises hand us their most critical operations. We earn that with security, transparency and software that simply holds.

03

Craft

Two decades in, we still care how the code reads and how the screen feels. Quality is designed in, not bolted on.

04

Outcomes

We measure ourselves in inspections completed, errors avoided and hours saved — not features shipped.

05

Without borders

From Lisbon to Coimbatore to the field, good software should reach everyone who needs it, wherever they are.

We hire people who build with care. See open roles →

The people

The team behind Mayvel.

A multi-disciplinary team of engineers, designers and product thinkers across two continents.

Babu, Founder of Mayvel
01Founder

Babu

Babu founded ShlokLabs in 2003 — the company that would grow into Mayvel — on a simple conviction: the most important software is the kind that quietly keeps something critical from failing. Over two decades, he has shaped it from a small engineering practice into a product company trusted on some of the most demanding sites in the world.

As Founder, Babu sets Mayvel's long-term direction and guards the standard of craft and vigilance that runs through everything the company builds — from its first inspection systems for global enterprises to the three products it ships today.
