# Grounded Innovation™

## Vision

To build intelligence into ordinary objects of everyday life.

## Mission

We build physical sensing and on-device intelligence into everyday objects, and hold them to two rules: act only when sure, and work with or without the internet.

## Values

1. **Earn it before you claim it.** We build conviction from evidence, not from hope. If we haven't tested it, we don't promise it.
2. **Own your work.** We trust people to work in their own style — but that freedom stops where standards slip or the team is affected.
3. **Speak your mind.** Every voice counts at Dharanova, irrespective of title or experience, so we expect everyone to speak up.
4. **Respect privacy.** We keep the sensing on the device. Whatever leaves does so because the user turned it on, not because it suits us.

## Culture Commitments

1. We make room for fun.
2. We back people to join hackathons, competitions, and conferences — as themselves or as Dharanova.
3. We celebrate the people behind the work, by name.
4. Everyone teaches, everyone learns.
