About Us

Building AI for institutions where evidence matters more than promises.

iTuring.ai (formerly CyborgIntell) was founded in 2019 in Bengaluru by practitioners who had built and deployed AI systems inside banks and insurers, where “it works” is never enough without evidence.

That experience shaped a platform designed for lineage, traceability, explainability, and approvals – not as afterthoughts, but as architectural requirements. Every feature, every workflow, every model carries its own evidence.

Built Global. Scaled Fast.
