Story and Vision
Startup Phase:
Entropy began its journey in June 2016 under the banner of AJF Innovations (ajf.in), incubated at CIBA in Goa, India. The Entropy experiment initially focused on keyword analysis of domain names — a process that led the founder to uncover emerging tech trends.
Through this data-driven approach, the founder observed a growing number of domain registrations related to crypto, blockchain, Ethereum, and Bitcoin — prompting a deeper exploration into these technologies.
Growth Phase:
In January 2018, Entropy evolved from a project into a full-fledged startup. It established a base in Mindspace, Mumbai, and sharpened its product focus. Early tools like the Blockchain Trend Tracker were launched to surface correlations between real-world events and blockchain adoption metrics.
With new focus on blockchain and crypto data, the team embraced cutting-edge engineering and data science practices, guided by the belief that “data is the new oil.”
In April 2020, Entropy launched an invite-only version of its MVP and gained traction, solidifying its position as a key player in the analytics space. Since then, Entropy has scaled significantly, working with diverse datasets from domain names to on-chain activity and crypto asset data.
In 2021, Entropy was incorporated in Goa, India and the USA making it a multinational brand.
Scale-up Phase:
In July 2024, Entropy released the alpha version of its flagship data analytics app, built to help investors and tech enthusiasts make sense of early-stage innovation. With millions of ventures launching across the ecosystem, Entropy identifies the few truly moving the needle—those advancing core technology or shaping emerging narratives. Built on data-driven workflows, it curates protocols, startups, and trends before they go mainstream..
Looking ahead, Entropy aims to broaden its data sources, integrating company databases, startup directories, trademarks, patents, and academic whitepapers. The goal: to uncover deep relational insights across datasets and strengthen Entropy’s role as a platform for discovering innovation.
