You find the story, we mind the languages.

Translation is broken.
We built the engine
to fix it.

For decades, translating corporate assets meant dealing with a system that was person-dependent, cost-prohibitive, and painfully slow. Rian turns a fractured, manual process into a simple, effective, and entirely self-serve localization utility.

Where It All
Began.

Our founder, Anandsagar Shiralkar, spent over 13 years working within the rigorous corporate ecosystem of Citibank in Japan. In that hyper-precise environment, he experienced firsthand a massive, systemic friction point: the absolute dependency on seamless document translation along the India-Japan corridor, and the glaring inefficiencies of how global enterprises handled localization.

From Agency
to Algorithm.

We started the old way — operating as a traditional translation agency. But as we managed high-volume corporate documents, the industry's fundamental flaws became impossible to ignore:

→ The Person-Dependent Bottleneck: Endless back-and-forth emails with project managers just to get a single contract kicked off.

→ The Cost-Heavy Reality: Sky-high pricing structures designed to support agency overhead rather than actual output.

→ The Time Drain: Waiting days, or even weeks, for simple document turnarounds.

We realized businesses couldn't afford to treat localization as a slow, bureaucratic project. It needed to be an immediate, friction-free resource.

Anandsagar spent over 13 years in the corporate ecosystem of Citibank in Japan — experiencing firsthand the friction of cross-border document translation. That experience became the blueprint for Rian: a hybrid AI + human model that makes localization fast, scalable, and genuinely self-serve for any business.
