We're an applied AI research lab. We partner with enterprises to find where AI creates real leverage in their business — then we build it. Deep enough to reason from first principles, pragmatic enough to ship in weeks, not quarters.
Most "AI vendors" bolt a chatbot onto an existing dashboard and call it transformation. Argish and Het founded vunai to do the opposite — to start from the actual decision a human is trying to make, the data they're drowning in, and the outcome the business needs, then engineer the shortest path to it.
We sit at the intersection of research and shipping — and we think outside the box, because the box is where everyone already lost.
Executive cockpits, role-aware analytics, retrieval and multi-agent reasoning — production systems that turn an organisation's own data into decisions it can act on: grounded, role-aware, and reliable.

“We don’t start from the model — we start from the decision a human is trying to make, then engineer the shortest path to it.” Argish leads vunai’s research-to-production work, turning frontier capability into systems enterprises actually run.
Argish and Het founded vunai to close the gap between what AI can do at the frontier and what enterprises actually deploy — a builder's instinct for shipping, a researcher's appetite for hard problems, and a shared conviction that the best AI work happens when you refuse the obvious approach.
A small, senior team — and a few seats open for people who refuse the obvious approach.
No offshore black box. We work as an extension of your team — close to the decision, close to the data.
We hire builders who reason from first principles and have a bias toward shipping. If that's you, we'd like to talk.
