CATALYST

About

A catalyst is an
agent of change.

We accelerate transformation without being consumed by the process. Founded by Lagan Bajaj and Ritvik Singh — a two-person studio for custom websites, brand design, and engineering.

Why the name

We turn ambition into digital momentum.

Catalyst is a digital experience and technology studio. We help ambitious businesses transform ideas into high-performance websites and products — from brand and UI/UX to Next.js development, performance and security.

The Catalyst idea

Founders

Two people.
One studio.

Not a bench of contractors behind a logo. Design and security sit in the same conversation — so the site that ships is the one they actually built.

Founder 01

Product & design

Lagan Bajaj

Co-founder

Lagan leads what the business feels like online — brand, structure, and interface. She treats a website as a product: what it says, how it moves, and why someone should act. The visual language and conversion path start with her.

Founder 02

Engineering & security

Ritvik Singh

Co-founder

Ritvik builds the system underneath — performance, security, and the tools that have to hold up in the open. Cybersecurity analyst by training: offensive testing, detection, and DLP. He ships the engineering, including Sentinel.

Lagan sets the experience. Ritvik hardens the build. Clients get one studio — not a handoff between a designer and an engineer who have never spoken.

What we believe

That’s why Catalyst exists.

Six standards every digital product should meet. If a build misses one of these, it isn’t finished — it’s just shipped.

01Purpose

It should have a job.

A website should never exist simply because a business “needs a website.” The product has to move someone.

02Clarity

It should communicate.

The interface has to make the offer, the difference, and the next step obvious — without making people work for it.

03Credibility

It should build trust.

Taste, clarity and restraint are how a business feels serious online. Decoration is not the same as presence.

04Performance

It should perform.

Speed, accessibility and stability are part of the product — not extras bolted on before launch day.

05Conversion

It should convert.

Every section has a job. Movement is the point. Looking finished is never enough.

06Longevity

It should evolve.

The foundation should be ready for what’s next — not frozen the moment the site goes live.
