We built the thing we kept wishing existed.
In late 2023, Keyur's fintech team was running a temperature-sensitive logistics model. Three vendor feeds reported temperature data: one in Fahrenheit, one in Celsius, one in Kelvin. The ingestion scripts didn't convert units. The model trained for six weeks on the mixed-unit data before the regression outputs started failing QA checks. The root cause took a day to find. The fix took a weekend. The downstream reporting corrections took two more sprints.
That incident was not the first of its kind. It was the third. The team had a running log of vendor schema surprises: a date field that changed from MM/DD/YYYY to YYYY-MM-DD with no notice, a revenue field that switched from USD to EUR without a schema version bump, a company name field where the same client appeared under seven different strings across two source systems. Each fix was custom. Each fix had to be maintained.
In early 2024, Keyur and Priya started prototyping HyperNorm: a single pipeline pass that inferred canonical schemas, converted units, and resolved entity duplicates before any downstream process saw the data. Rajan joined to own the connector layer. In April 2026 they closed their angel round, which funded the team full-time to productize what had been an internal tool.
