AI & SaaS Founder · Langley, British Columbia, Canada
I’m Tilak Raj, an AI entrepreneur based in Langley, British Columbia, Canada. I design and build vertical AI SaaS products for agriculture, insurance, real estate, and other traditional industries.
Founder of AgriIntel, Brainfy AI, CovioIQ, Navlyt and more — shipping globally from Canada.

My approach: find a real problem, validate with users, build quickly, iterate constantly. Each product is designed for a defined audience, built fast with modern tools, and shipped from Canada.

Founder & Builder
Generic AI is good at broad, shallow tasks. It doesn't know your compliance deadlines, your quoting math, or the way a claim actually moves through a brokerage.
Vertical AI does. Each product I build is shaped around one industry's real workflows, terminology, and edge cases — so it removes work instead of adding a second thing to check.
That's the bet: narrow beats general when the problem is specific and the cost of being wrong is high.
