Privacy-first AI agents through word and sound—Shobdo (শব্দ). Our first agent, Shobdo VideoRAG, watches your surveillance cameras and answers your questions; so you can focus on running your business.
Shobdo (শব্দ) is a Bengali word meaning both "word" and "sound" — the most natural ways humans connect and make sense of the world. We believe AI should meet people where they already are, through voice and language, not the other way around.
Shobdo VideoRAG is our agentic AI service designed for small and medium business owners to monitor their surveillance video cameras. Ask your cameras anything in plain English or Bangla — think of it as ChatGPT for your security footage.
Because "free" AI is never actually free — you pay with your data, your attention, or both. We earn revenue the straightforward way: by selling products and services that are genuinely worth paying for. That honest model is what lets us build AI that works for you instead of on you.
Privacy is not a feature we bolt on — it is our business model. We build solutions that run on your hardware, offline if needed, so your data never leaves your control. We have no ad business, no data marketplace, and no incentive to harvest what you generate. Your data belongs to you, period.
Most AI companies are built on surveillance and subscription lock-in — they need your data to survive. We reject that model entirely. Shobdo is built on three principles: Privacy First, Sustainability Over Exploitation, and AI for Everyone. We build AI agents that work for you and your business — not the other way around. No data harvesting, no attention manipulation, no enshittification down the road.
