Safi Shamsi
Founder of Graphify Labs, On-device Knowledge Graph engine for Enterprise Software
Company
Safi Shamsi is listed as a founder of Graphify Labs. Graphify is a Knowledge Graph control plane for enterprise software. The open-source tool has 116K+ GitHub stars and 6.5M+ downloads, and is used in production by engineers at Shopify, Datadog, JP Morgan, American Express, Harvey, Automation Anywhere, and Vanguard. On top of that graph, our enterprise layer reviews every pull request and formally verifies each code change: it proves the new behavior matches the old, or hands back the exact input that breaks it. That makes it built for the changes teams fear most, like refactors, framework upgrades, and large-scale migrations, where you need proof that nothing broke, not a guess. The graph updates itself as the code changes and keeps context instead of forgetting it, so your whole team and their coding agents work from one shared, always-current view of the codebase instead of a thousand private threads. It runs entirely inside your perimeter, fully air-gapped on-premise or self-hosted in your own cloud, so no code or data ever leaves your environment.

Got my first mini office in London today. Not flashy. Not big. Just mine. From shipping @Graphify to having a space I can actually call my own. Slow wins hit different when you’ve turned down the fast money and kept building anyway. To every founder still grinding solo or with...
