Kyvex with its next-generation AI platform wholly built by Indian engineers, marks India's major stride in the world of artificial intelligence. It's more than a launch it's an announcement to the whole world that India is going to compete at the highest level of innovation in the field of AI.
Kyvex positions itself as a challenger to leading tools like ChatGPT and Perplexity but with a different philosophy. Instead of leaning on external datasets, it relies on its own engineered large language model. The platform focuses on precision, transparency and contextual reasoning, offering users an AI that behaves more like a research partner than a chatbot. Its rollout across web, Android, iOS and browser extensions signals ambitions that reach far beyond India.
Kyvex is driven by Pearl Kapur, a young Indian billionaire who has earned a reputation for combining deep technology with bold entrepreneurial instinct. He is the founder and chairman of the multinational Zyber 365 Group which covers cybersecurity, Web3 infrastructure and AI systems.
Born on January 4, 1997, Kapur is among the youngest billionaires in India, a feat very few people ever achieve before the age of 28.
