# About — Hemant Attri, founder of Attri Edge — Attri Edge

About The operator Hemant Attri runs Attri Edge as a single-operator practice. Every diagnostic, every retainer, every engagement is delivered by him directly — no junior associates, no offshore delivery handed off to anyone else. This is intentional. The work requires judgment that compliance platforms can’t automate and that junior consultants can’t replicate: cross-cultural operational decisions, India statutory expertise, and US enterprise procurement instincts. Productizing the templates, yes. Productizing the person, no. Why this niche Most fractional CISOs are US-only and lose context the moment your engineering team is in Bangalore. Most India-based consultants serve Indian companies. Most large firms (Deloitte, KPMG, Big 4) don’t serve sub-Series-C SaaS at any price you’d pay. The wedge — US-headquartered SaaS with India GCCs of 20–200 people — has real pain (deal stalls on security review) and no specialist serving it. So that’s what Attri Edge serves. Nothing else. Why “India-based” is the feature, not a discount Attri Edge is run from India. This is positioned explicitly: 24/7 coverage of US business hours plus full overlap with your India team Native fluency in India statutory compliance (DPDPA, IT Act, labor law) Direct relationships with India auditors, lawyers, and ops specialists when referrals are needed Cultural fluency on both sides of the cross-border conversation This isn’t an “outsourcing” play. It’s a specialist play. The same way you’d hire a fintech-specific compliance firm if you were a fintech, you hire a US-India-specific firm if you have an India GCC. The brand standards Attri Edge holds a few things tightly: One-page mutual NDA, signed before any technical discussion Month-to-month retainers, no lock-ins, zero termination fees Transparent pricing on the diagnostic and Foundational tier No referral fees from tools or auditors (we recommend what we believe; bias-free) Decline of work outside the wedge, even when budget is available How to reach us Diagnostic booking: start here General inquiries: hello@attriedge.com Hemant directly: hs@attriedge.com Newsletter (The GCC Compliance Brief): subscribe Disclosures Attri Edge is operated by Hemant Attri, based in India. We are not a law firm, CPA firm, or licensed auditor. Engagements are operational and advisory in nature. For licensed audit work, we partner with US-licensed CPA firms (auditor introductions available on request). Want to see if we're a fit?
