Co-Founder — CEO
Mehul began his career working directly with customers on the phone, gaining first-hand experience with the challenges of delivering consistent service without clear feedback or visibility. That perspective continues to shape how he thinks about evaluating performance and improving customer interactions.
As Co-Founder and CEO, Mehul leads Chordia's strategy, growth, and partnerships, with a focus on building durable technology businesses. He brings experience as both an operator and investor, helping guide long-term decision-making around product, scale, and capital efficiency.
Mehul believes the most effective technology strengthens human performance — providing clarity, consistency, and trust rather than replacing people.
