House Technologies began with a vision to address the critical need for indigenous drone technology in India. Our co-founder, Shivam Gupta, a dropout from Delhi Technological University with a background in mathematical and computing engineering, leveraged his experience with other startups to lay the foundation for House Technologies in 2022. Alongside a dedicated team, including hardware expert Dilshad Habib from Jamia Millia Islamia and CFO Anshu Gupta, we focused on creating drones that offered not only advanced surveillance capabilities but also secure data transmission. Our breakthrough came with the development of our Minimum Viable Product (MVP), a micro-category surveillance drone. One of our unique selling points is our proprietary video and data transmission system. Our market research indicated a substantial opportunity within the defence sector, with the total addressable market (TAM) valued at $1.28 billion in FY22. We identified key target markets, including forest departments, anti-Naxal forces, and other defence and armed forces, and positioned our drones to meet their specific needs.

Solution Offered:
1. Indigenous Technology: We manufacture drones locally, ensuring they are customized to meet the specific operational needs of Indian defence forces.
2. Secure Data Transmission: Our drones feature a proprietary video and data transmission system, providing total control over the drone’s operations.
3. Customization and Control: Unlike other Indian companies that integrate off-the-shelf products, our solution is built from the ground up, giving us complete control over the drone's functionalities. This allows for seamless integration with Navic (IRNSS) and future modifications as needed.
4. Market Validation and Proven Reliability: We have successfully developed and delivered our Minimum Viable Product (MVP), receiving positive feedback from key stakeholders, including the Anti-Naxal Forces in Maharashtra, the Indian Army, and the Aditya Birla Group's Grasim.
.
Enhancing national security: By providing drones that are tailored to the specific needs of Indian defence forces, we ensure better surveillance, reconnaissance, and security operations.
Promoting Indigenous Technology: Our focus on indigenous technology supports the Make in India initiative, contributing to the country's technological sovereignty and reducing dependency on foreign technology.
