The Vision

One state. One ecosystem.
One place to find it all.

Uttarakhand has the talent, the institutions and the intent — but no shared front door. Work happens in isolation: a research group in Roorkee, a founder in Dehradun, a student in Almora, an SMB in Haldwani quietly automating its operations. None of them can easily find each other.

Uttarakhand.ai exists to close that gap — becoming the definitive, neutral map of artificial intelligence across the state.

1

Discoverable

Every AI company, lab, course and opportunity in the state, indexed in one searchable place.

2

Connected

Founders meet engineers. Institutions meet industry. Capital meets capability.

3

Rooted

Built for Uttarakhand's own context — its languages, its industries, its hill economy and its people.

Mapping the state, live
The Ecosystem

Six pillars, one platform.

Everything the state's AI community needs to find each other and grow — organised, verified and open to all.

AI Companies

A verified directory of every company building or deploying AI across Uttarakhand — from Dehradun studios to Roorkee deep-tech labs.

Directory

Startups

Discover early-stage AI ventures born in the hills, track what they're building, and find the ones worth backing or joining.

Discovery

Jobs

AI and data roles across the state — plus remote-first roles open to Uttarakhand talent. Keep the state's engineers in the state.

Careers

Learning

Curated courses, workshops and mentorship — practical AI skills for students, professionals and small businesses across the region.

Education

Events

Meetups, hackathons, demo days and conferences — one calendar for everything happening across Kumaon and Garhwal.

Calendar

Community

A serious, moderated network where builders share work, ask hard questions and collaborate — not another noisy group chat.

Roadmap

A long-term build, in the open.

We're not shipping everything at once. Each phase earns the next.

Phase 01 In progress

Foundation & Waitlist

Establishing the platform, defining the standards for who gets listed, and building the first cohort of founding members from across the state.

Phase 02

The Directory

Launching the verified index of AI companies, startups, labs and service providers operating in Uttarakhand — free to browse, free to be listed.

Phase 03

Jobs & Learning

Opening the careers board and the curated learning hub, so talent trained in the state has a clear reason to stay and build in the state.

Phase 04

Community & Events

A moderated member network, a shared regional events calendar, and the first Uttarakhand AI gathering bringing Kumaon and Garhwal together.

Phase 05

Institutional Partnerships

Formal collaboration with universities, industry bodies and public institutions — positioning Uttarakhand.ai as the state's reference point for AI.

Be part of the founding cohort.

Early members help shape what gets built first — and are listed ahead of everyone else when the directory goes live.

Priority placement in the launch directory
First access to jobs, events and learning programmes
Direct input on the platform roadmap
Invitations to founding-member meetups

We keep this list small and quiet. No spam, no reselling of details — just occasional updates as each phase goes live.

By joining, you agree to receive occasional updates about the platform.

Thank you for joining early. We'll be in touch as soon as the next phase opens up.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

What exactly is Uttarakhand.ai?
It's the central platform for artificial intelligence in Uttarakhand — a single place to find the companies, startups, jobs, courses, events and people working with AI across the state. Think of it as the state's shared infrastructure for AI, not a product or a service business.
Is this a government initiative?
It's an independent, neutral platform. It isn't run by any single company or department, and it isn't tied to one institution — which is precisely what lets it map the whole ecosystem fairly. We actively welcome collaboration with public institutions, universities and industry bodies.
Does it cost anything to be listed?
Core listings will be free. The intent is coverage and accuracy first — a directory that leaves people out because of price isn't a real map of the ecosystem.
I'm not based in Uttarakhand. Can I still join?
Yes. If you're from the state, hiring from it, investing in it, or building something relevant to it, you belong here. The focus is Uttarakhand — the participation isn't limited by geography.
What happens after I join the waitlist?
You'll get a confirmation, then periodic updates as each roadmap phase goes live. Founding-cohort members are contacted first for directory listings, early access and invitations.
When does the platform launch?
The directory is the first public milestone, targeted for 2026. Later phases — jobs, learning, community and events — follow in sequence. We'd rather ship each phase properly than launch everything half-built.
How is my data handled?
Details submitted through the waitlist are used only to contact you about the platform. They are not sold, resold or shared with third parties.
