VectorD Proof Points
Infrastructure
Multi-continent server fleet — India + Europe
VectorD operates dedicated VPS infrastructure across Mumbai, Guwahati, Frankfurt, and Luxembourg. No shared hosting, no resold capacity. Each client site runs on hardware we control and monitor 24/7.
Use this when
Prospect asks "where is my data hosted?" or "what happens if the server goes down?"
Email
Self-hosted mail with full DKIM/DMARC/SPF — enterprise deliverability
VectorD's mail stack (Mailcow on Postfix/Dovecot) is configured with full email authentication standards. Your domain's email reputation is protected and monitored. No shared IP pools, no Microsoft or Google dependency.
Use this when
Prospect says "our emails go to spam" or "we use Gmail for business."
Web Dev
No CMS, no plugins — hand-coded, lean, fast
VectorD websites are built without WordPress or similar CMS frameworks. This means zero plugin attack surface, sub-second load times, and no dependency on third-party update cycles. Every line of code is ours — and deliverable to you.
Use this when
Prospect has been hacked via WordPress before, or complains about slow load times.
AI
Live AI product: Report Maker — real subscriptions, real users
Report Maker is a live, paying product built on VectorD's infrastructure — not a prototype. It processes real business documents using DeepSeek AI on our own server. This is proof we ship AI products, not just consult on them.
Use this when
Prospect doubts VectorD's AI capability or asks for a working example of our AI integration.
Flexibility
Negotiable monthly rates — no rigid pricing tiers
VectorD doesn't force clients into fixed pricing packages. Every engagement is scoped to what the business actually needs. Clients with multiple services get bundled rates. Monthly retainers are adjusted as scope changes — no exit penalties, no lock-in.
Use this when
Prospect says "we can't afford the full package" or "we only need one part of this."
India-Native
Indian data residency — DPDP-ready
For clients handling personal data of Indian citizens (e-commerce, healthcare, finance-adjacent), VectorD's India-hosted infrastructure satisfies DPDP Act 2023 data localisation principles. Your data doesn't leave Indian jurisdiction by default.
Use this when
Prospect is in a regulated industry or asks about data privacy compliance.

Drop-in One-Liners for Any Conversation

On cost of downtime

"A website down for one business day costs more than 3 months of hosting fees for most SMEs. What's your daily revenue?"

On email professionalism

"The difference between rion@gmail.com and rion@vectord.in is ₹0 in functionality and ₹10,000 in perceived credibility."

On Google visibility

"Your competitor showing up on Google before you isn't beating you on service — they're beating you on a ₹500/month decision."

On data sovereignty

"Every email you send on Gmail is stored on American servers under American law. For most businesses, that's fine. For yours, is it?"

On AI timing

"The businesses that added AI to their customer workflows in 2024 will have 18 months of operational advantage over those that wait until 2026."

On flexi pricing

"We don't have a package you have to fit into. We build the scope around what you actually need — and adjust it as your business changes."

On no lock-in

"You can leave VectorD at any time with everything you paid for — all the code, all the content, all the data. We're confident enough to not need a lock-in clause."

On enterprise pricing at SME cost

"The same infrastructure that powers enterprise systems is available to you at SME pricing. Cloud computing made that possible. VectorD makes it accessible."
