Our Story

Two Traders. One Vision.

For 17 years, Dale Vaz traded through everything - the 2008 financial crisis, flash crashes, bull runs, and bear markets. From his first Charles Schwab account in the US to trading futures in India, he experienced the full spectrum: the intellectual high of a winning trade, the gut-punch of a loss, and everything in between.

But something always bothered him.

As CTO at Swiggy, Dale would quiz colleagues about their investments. The pattern was striking: everyone had a broking app. Nobody knew how to actually trade well.

"It actually points to a gap. People need a tool that can help them become better in their craft."

That's when Dale called Manish Jain - a trading product veteran who had spent years at Kotak Securities building exactly the kind of sophisticated tools that only institutions could access.

Together, they asked a simple question:

What if we built the platform we always wanted?

The answer became Sahi.

The Problem

The Playing Field Isn't Level

Professional traders have unfair advantages. Individual traders? They get clunky apps, delayed data, and a "good luck" attitude from their broker.

Tool Gap

Tool Gap

Institutions have real-time analytics, AI insights, and lightning-fast execution. Retail traders? They're stuck with basic apps built for occasional investors.

Speed Disadvantage

Speed Disadvantage

In trading, milliseconds matter. Professional traders have direct market access. Individual traders wait in queue behind slow infrastructure.

Cost Barrier

Cost Barrier

Professional-grade tools have been locked behind expensive subscriptions and high minimums - out of reach for serious but individual traders.

Our Mission

Levelling the Playing Field

We're redefining the trading experience with faster, more efficient workflows that keep serious traders in flow state - where peak performance happens.

Professional-grade tools. Fair pricing. A relentless focus on making you a better trader.
