Authors / Leadership
Dr. Vivek Gujar
Dr. Vivek Gujar is co-founder and Chief Strategy Officer of IndoAI Technologies Pvt. Ltd., a Pune-based edge AI camera platform founded in 2021. He leads research and strategic positioning, serves as technical reviewer for IndoAI's published claims, and has authored research on edge AI, computer vision and information security.
Role at IndoAI
Dr. Gujar co-founded IndoAI in 2021 and serves as Chief Strategy Officer. He leads research, strategic positioning and business development, and has shaped the framing of the company's two core ideas: Appization, the marketplace model for deploying modular AI models onto edge devices, and AIRI, a readiness index for architecting complete vision AI solutions.
He is also the named technical reviewer for what IndoAI publishes. That is a formal responsibility rather than a courtesy. Technical claims in IndoAI's articles, glossary and case studies pass through review before publication, and the pages carry his name as reviewer in their structured data, so a number on an IndoAI page can be traced to a person accountable for it.
Qualifications
- Ph.D. in Seaport Security
- MBA in Marketing
- B.Tech in Chemical Engineering
- ISO 27001 Lead Auditor
- ISO 9001 Lead Auditor
His doctorate is in seaport security rather than computer vision, and the security governance and audit background is what he brings to the compliance and risk side of IndoAI's work. The computer vision and edge AI expertise rests on his published research in those fields, listed below, and on the deployments IndoAI has delivered.

Review approach
Three principles govern what IndoAI publishes, and they are worth stating because they explain why some numbers appear on these pages and others do not.
- Show the arithmetic. Where a claim rests on a calculation, the calculation is printed so a reader can check it rather than trust it.
- Separate measured from derived. A figure from IndoAI's own deployments is labelled as such. A figure derived from a published standard is attributed to the standard.
- Publish the limits. Where a capability fails, the failure conditions are stated. Camera-based analytics that supplement statutory safety systems are described as supplementary, never as replacements for them.
