Great to see Indian startups focusing on 'governance-first' AI. In our rush to adopt technology, compliance often gets sidelined. Having these advisors should help build trust. Hope they can make AI solutions more affordable for smaller banks and NBFCs too.

Mr. Hota's involvement is particularly exciting. After his phenomenal work with UPI, his insights into scaling secure digital platforms for billions of transactions will be crucial for any AI system in payments. This could be a game-changer for fintech compliance.

Interesting development from Mumbai. The combination of deep banking regulatory experience (Tanksale) and massive-scale digital payments expertise (Hota) creates a powerful advisory duo. This is exactly the kind of guidance needed to navigate India's complex BFSI landscape with AI.

Respectfully, while the appointments are impressive, the real test is execution. Many startups bring on big names for prestige. I hope AXS genuinely integrates their guidance into product development and doesn't just use their names on the website. The vision sounds solid, though.

As someone in the BFSI sector, automating compliance with AI is the dream. If they can build platforms that are truly "compliance-by-design" for Indian regulations (RBI, SEBI, IRDAI), it will save countless man-hours and reduce risk. Fingers crossed! 🤞
