Advisory Capital

Every place, quietly looked after

We imagine a world where every home, shop, farm, campus and stretch of road is quietly looked after — with fewer false alarms, no tangled cables, and your data protected by controls you can trust. Security should feel like a trusted person who knows the place: calm when all is well, clear and quick when it isn't.

Our Vision

A new class of security that is wireless, portable and private by design — easy enough for a family, strong enough for a campus, and built in India for everyone.

Our Company

XO Sense Private Limited is a deep-tech company from Ranchi, Jharkhand. We create the devices, the intelligence inside them and the software that ties them together — all under one roof. Our intelligence layer is SecuraSense.

Team Capability

Our team spans cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, hardware engineering and building companies. We have shipped products, run installations in heat, dust and patchy connectivity, and earned the trust of data-sensitive organisations.

What We Value

🛡️

Privacy by Default

Processed at the edge first and in the cloud where it adds value — always under established processes and controls that follow the DPDP Act and other privacy laws.

⚙️

Engineering First

We build the hard parts ourselves — firmware to models to platform — instead of stitching together black boxes.

🎯

Signal Over Noise

An alert should mean something. We'd rather miss a false alarm than bury a real one.

📡

The Edge Wins

Real-time, offline-capable, low-power. Intelligence belongs where the signals live.

What It Takes

Shipping a device that thinks on its own means owning the whole stack — silicon to screen.

01

Firmware & Hardware

Node boards, power budgets and embedded code that has to run unattended for months at a time.

02

On-Device Models

Perception models compressed to fit constrained silicon without giving up the accuracy that makes them useful.

03

Platform & Backend

The self-hosted layer that stitches fleets together — storage, streaming, alerting and access control.

04

Field & Deployment

Real installs in real conditions. Dust, heat, bad power and worse Wi-Fi are part of the spec.

Made in Ranchi for India

We design, prototype and test from Jharkhand — building for Indian conditions first, then everywhere else. Hardware gets validated where it will actually be deployed, not in a lab that flatters it.

Years in the Making

XO Sense didn't start with a product — it started with a question: can genuinely private, reliable security intelligence run at the edge? The years since are the answer, built one hard problem at a time in Ranchi.

Phase 01 · Research

The Research Begins

We started where most security systems fail — false alarms and cloud dependence. Early research focused on sensor fusion and low-false-alarm detection: combining independent signals into one calibrated, trustworthy decision.

Phase 02 · Hardware

Sourcing the Senses

Months of hands-on node sourcing and testing — every sensing modality we could find — to learn what actually survives dust, weather, darkness and time. That work became the XO Nodes catalog.

Phase 03 · Vision

Teaching It to See

Getting real perception models to run inside a small edge box meant quantising them to fit a tiny memory and power budget without losing accuracy. This became the seeing half of XO Core.

Phase 04 · Language

Teaching It to Speak

A detection is only useful if a human understands it. Our LLM development turned raw events into contextual, plain-language alerts — so an alert reads like a person telling you what happened, not a string of sensor codes.

Phase 05 · Architecture

The SecuraSense Stack Takes Shape

The pieces came together into a simple architecture: one XO Server running XO Core as the brain — or XO Cloud for distributed sites — and many modular XO Nodes as the senses. Mix and match for any space.

Today · The XO Series

Ready for the World

Years of research now ship as three deployments — XO Indoor, XO Perimeter and XO Mobile — private, edge-first security built in India and made to travel anywhere.

Hardware Leadership, Made in India

We believe the next generation of security hardware can be designed and built in India — and trusted around the world.

01

Build, Don't Import

Frontier AI hardware doesn't have to be bought from abroad — it can be engineered here, end to end.

02

Data Sovereignty

Strict controls over where data lives and who can reach it keep a nation's data in its own hands — a strategic advantage, not just a feature.

03

Self-Reliant Stack

From firmware to models to hardware, building the full stack in-house is how real capability compounds.

04

Ranchi to the World

We're proving deep-tech leadership can start in Jharkhand and reach a global market.
