In 2008, I spent 18 days at my brother Avinish's bedside — watching the systemic "Theft of Presence" unfold in real time. Healers had been turned into data-entry clerks by the very tools meant to help them. Fragmented software — what I would later call TangleWare™ — extracted life-saving attention from the people who needed it most. Avinish passed. Those eighteen days rewired how I think about care. Not as a market to serve, but as a promise to keep.
To honor Avinish's memory, I founded the Deerghayu Foundation — an NGO that became a trusted partner to the US National Diabetes Education Program, bringing systemic healthcare solutions to underserved populations. The Foundation continues its work to this day. The early years led to my profile in The New York Times, in the piece "Two Jobs, Half a World Apart," and my appointment as a representative at the United Nations High-Level Meeting on Non-Communicable Diseases.
Over two decades across three continents, I built the very SaaS systems the industry relies on. Then I watched them fail — watched them become the administrative debt they promised to eliminate. I saw the same pattern in the United States, Switzerland, and India. The problem wasn't implementation. It was architecture. The entire model was wrong. I founded Caryfy AI to build the alternative: Work as Services.
The Care Economy requires both American operational scale and Swiss standards of data sovereignty. Caryfy AI's Swiss domicile in the Metio Building, Épalinges — in the heart of Switzerland's "Health Valley" — is the vantage point from which I champion Digital Subsidiarity: the principle that care data and AI must remain sovereign to local communities — accountable at the perimeter of the room and the perimeter of the nation, not extracted by systems built elsewhere. Operating proof lives in the United States; Switzerland is where the category is priced against the most demanding standards.
