About Scalix
Scalix World is building the cloud platform for AI applications. One API key, one credit pool, database, AI inference, serverless functions, storage, and auth, all in one place.
Company
Scalix World Pvt Ltd (India, CIN U72100KL2026PTC102006) and Energy FW Ltd (UK, Company No. 14600160). Two independent companies, not parent-subsidiary. IP owned by the India entity with an exclusive license to the UK entity for international markets.
Founders
Kiran Ravi (CEO) and Akhil (CTO), building from Kerala, India and London, UK.
Technology
The platform is built in Rust (22 crates, ~3,000 tests) with a React + TypeScript console. ScalixNova, our serverless PostgreSQL engine, has its own storage engine with a durable WAL, database branching, and query firewall. All running on dedicated EU infrastructure we operate ourselves. No cloud reseller margin.
Stage
Scalix Cloud is in public beta. DPIIT-recognized startup (Certificate DIPP264841).
How Scalix is built
Most platforms resell other providers' services, with a margin added at every layer. We engineered ours from the ground up, in Rust, and run them on dedicated infrastructure we operate. When something fails, we fix it at the engine level, not through a vendor's support queue.
ScalixNova storage engine
Streams WAL to object storage through Paxos-style WAL keepers. Cold restore after node loss, branching at any LSN, point-in-time recovery, verified on production hardware.
MicroVM functions runtime
MicroVMs orchestrated by the Scalix node agent. Hardware-level isolation for every invocation, not shared containers.
Unified Rust gateway
A single binary handles IAM, billing enforcement, WAF, AI crawler control, and automatic SSL. Every request follows one code path we fully control.
Fleet control plane
Machines bootstrap with one-time tokens exchanged for X.509 certificates from the platform CA. mTLS throughout, with every fleet operation audited.
AI inference routing
Scalix models behind one OpenAI-compatible endpoint, with intelligent routing, per-token metering, and tier-based access control.
Dedicated-server economics
Dedicated EU infrastructure instead of hyperscaler resale. The result: object storage at $0.021/GB and free ingress.
22 Rust crates. ~3,000 tests. One workspace.
Recent releases
ScalixNova storage proven end-to-end
WAL to object storage, cold restore after node loss, branch at any LSN, and PITR. All verified on production hardware.
Scalix Shield launched
AI crawler control at the gateway: allow, block, or rate-limit 43 known AI crawlers, with IP-range verification and generated robots.txt.
Automatic SSL for custom domains
Certificates ordered, installed, and renewed automatically, DNS-01 issuance with auto-renewal 30 days before expiry.
Scalix Search shipped
A provenance-aware index of original sources, built for agents that need to cite where information actually came from.
