About Dash Ahead (updated) Our Mission: We want to simplify your life by identifying pain points in everyday processes and removes friction. We are a hyper-local internet platform hacking growth for every locality/neighbourhood via human-centred design.

At Dash we are trying to build a quick fulfilment hyperlocal marketplace. Imagine a platform where you can message your needs to the local kirana store and having it fulfilled quickly. Our vision is an instant messaging-instant fulfilment platform. While doing this we want to digitise the local economy through a platform that is easy to onboard and start your business from.

Although Dash Ahead is primarily a tech company, we have a unique business model. Dash Ahead is setting up physical kiosks across the city of Hyderabad and we call these Dash Pods. This is the physical extension of our unique marketplace in 2 ways- it is a platform for vendors to sell their products and they serve as an infrastructure point for our hyperlocal marketplace. Right now we are self-funded.

At DAITA, we’re on a mission to revolutionize the fashion supply chain with intelligent AI solutions. Our focus is simple: automate the repetitive, so fashion brands can focus on what they do best—creativity, strategy, and growth.

We’ve done the groundwork—research across 8 countries and 3 continents, collaborating with everyone from cotton farmers to global retailers. This hands-on experience allows us to build AI tools that solve real-world problems with precision and empathy. And what truly sets us apart? Simplicity. Our solutions work out of the box, with zero learning curve and setup in under 24 hours.

Currently in our MVP stage and backed by pre-seed funding, we’re building something ambitious. Led by founders Jérôme Schmidt (ex-Snapchat AR) and Luis Voss (ex-Enpal), DAITA isn’t just another tech startup—we’re reimagining the world’s second-largest industry, one AI solution at a time.
