Mumbai, Feb 2026 : A 29 year old young and dynamic Founder
& CEO Mr
Nandan Patel, an MBA graduate specialized in Competitive Intelligence
and Strategic Management and trained at IIT Roorkee in Strategic Product
Management, is on a mission to build India’s own digital stage. Drawing on over
five years of diverse corporate experience, Patel has launched Verzii, India’s first owned social media platform
proudly “Made in India,” aimed at empowering
Indian creators.
Verzii has
rolled out with “a strong commitment to creator ownership, authentic
visibility, and sustainable monetisation.” In practical
terms, this means every Indian blogger, artist, or influencer gets full control
of their content and a fair share of earnings – a bold contrast to the opaque
algorithms of global tech giants. As India’s
first owned social media platform, Verzii represents a
structural shift toward self-reliant digital ecosystems.
A Vision Rooted in “Vocal for Local” and
Swadeshi Values
Patel’s personal
dedication is inseparable from India’s patriotic call for self-reliance.
Inspired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s “Vocal for Local” campaign,
he often reiterates the belief that India must build, support, and scale its
own digital platforms.
Speaking about his vision, Nandan Patel states:
“I would like to invite all the Indians across
the world, and related people to uplift Verzii,
and take this local for vocal Verzii, made in India to make it available for
the world.”
Verzii.com stands as a practical embodiment of this belief – India’s
first owned social media platform designed to ensure that
Indian voices, data, creativity, and revenue remain within the country’s
ecosystem. At a time when India is entering a pivotal digital phase, Verzii
positions itself as an India-first alternative focused on privacy, trust, and
local relevance.
Educated and Empathetic Leadership
Patel’s academic
background and rigorous product training provide strategic clarity, but it is
his emotional commitment to creators and national pride that truly
drives Verzii. He strongly believes Indian creators should not merely fuel
foreign platforms but should grow as empowered digital entrepreneurs within an
Indian-owned ecosystem.
Empowering Creators Through Fair Features
Verzii’s architecture
reflects a deep understanding of creator challenges:
•
Multi-Format Creator
Ownership:
Creators can publish
long-form blogs across diverse categories such as technology, education,
politics, lifestyle, and travel, alongside videos and multimedia content – while
retaining full ownership.
·
Mood-Based Discovery:
Users select their
intent – learning, inspiration, or entertainment – and the platform intelligently
serves relevant content. This ensures authentic reach for both new and established
creators.
•
Fair Monetisation &
Engagement:
Creators earn
transparently between ₹5 and ₹10 per thousand views, complemented by engagement
tools such as polls, discussions, and challenges – fostering trust and sustainability.
•
Community-Centric,
Transparent Ecosystem:
Brands, creators, and
communities coexist in a structured and transparent environment with clear
analytics, open metrics, and trust-driven partnerships.
These features collectively reinforce Verzii’s promise as India’s first
owned social media
platform championing creator dignity and fairness.
Digital Self-Reliance and a Proud Future
Beyond technology, Verzii is a step toward digital
swaraj. Patel emphasizes
that India-owned platforms are critical for data sovereignty, cultural
representation, and national security. Built with Indian vision and
intent, Verzii.Com symbolizes
India’s confidence in shaping its own digital future.
For Nandan Patel, Verzii is more than a startup – it is a
national movement. A platform created by Indians, owned by Indians, and
designed for the world. As early adoption grows, Verzii signals the beginning of a new
chapter where Indian creators rise – not just in reach and revenue, but in
pride.
