It started with frustration. Years ago, founders Krupesh Bhat and Ashok Kadsur set out to fix long RTO queues and endless paperwork. That spark became SignDesk, a platform that helped organizations digitize documentation — saving over 60,000 trees and winning trust from leaders like ICICI, Bajaj, and L&T.
As digital adoption accelerated, SignDesk became a compliance-ready platform with ISO certifications and partnerships across industries. Trusted by Unilever, Deloitte, and 3,000+ enterprises, we grew 150% in revenue during the pandemic while helping businesses stay resilient.
But we knew documents were just the beginning. That’s why we reimagined ourselves as Melento: an intelligence platform where humans and AI work hand-in-hand to redefine workflows, contracts, and compliance for a more adaptive future.
