About

We are team Karvi.

an Indian company dedicated to consumer-grade hardware & security testing tools. We build intuitive, powerful tools for digital exploration — and put them within reach of the people who were priced out of them.

Why we exist

Powerful tools shouldn't be a privilege.

So we asked ourselves: why not us?

We believe in freedom through technology — and that the tools for hacking, automation and learning shouldn't belong only to a well-funded few.

Makers in other countries grew up with rich hardware ecosystems built for tinkerers. In India, most of us started with imported gear that was bulky, overpriced, or never designed with us in mind. A device that sells for a modest price abroad can land at ₹10,000–₹40,000 on an Indian marketplace — out of reach for the very students and enthusiasts who want it most.

That question — why not us? — is where Karvi Labs began. We build affordable, usable, Indian-made hardware for a new generation of security researchers, makers and engineers.

How we do it

Hardware and software, built as one.

We design and build both sides of the product ourselves, tuned for real-world learning and everyday use.

  • Build Indian hardware

    Compact, purpose-built tools for security research & testing and automation — made for Indian users and Indian budgets. No more overpriced imports.

  • Design with soul

    Hardware should be as functional as it is beautiful. Ours is clean, pocketable and personal — not another bulky dev board with pins sticking out.

  • Write our own software

    From firmware to the language you program it in, everything is built in-house — tuned for performance, usability and simplicity. Built by hackers, for hackers.

  • Build a real community

    We're not just selling tools — we're gathering a tribe where learners, hackers and builders grow together. Designed in India, for India.

Our story

It started in 2024.

Karvi Labs started with one founder and one problem. Amir had spent years in software and embedded systems engineering, and kept running into the same wall: the tools Indian makers and security learners actually wanted were bulky, overpriced, or never built here at all.

He wasn't interested in complaining about it. He had the software and firmware skills to build the whole stack, and a clear idea of how a proper tool should feel — so he set out to design one himself and solve the problem for good.

Sunil, a hardware designer who always wanted to build things that stood out, brought the board to life alongside him. There were no Flipper-class devices made in India, and importing them was slow and expensive — so they stopped waiting.

And so, Karvi Labs was born.

Founders

The two behind it.

  • I've spent years in software and embedded engineering. Karvi is all of that pointed at one problem — building the hardware Indian makers deserve, at a price they can actually reach.
