Pathfindr AI recently were acquired for $15 million dollars. We thought we would provide a brief case study on our very small part in the journey for the founder Dawid Naude.
Case Study: Pathfindr AI – Scaling an AI Consultancy Without IT Distractions
Challenge
Challenge As Pathfindr scaled rapidly to meet client demand, they faced mounting challenges with IT operations and cybersecurity. Internal teams were spending valuable time on day-to-day IT tasks like onboarding staff, managing devices, and fielding support issues. The leadership team needed to present a strong security posture to enterprise clients but lacked the time and resources to build that in-house. Hiring internal IT wasn’t commercially viable, and traditional MSPs weren’t built for modern, agile firms like Pathfindr AI.
Solution
Outcomes
Zero internal IT hires needed, keeping costs low and overhead flat. Faster onboarding and support resolution, improving consultant productivity. Security posture uplifted, supporting enterprise trust and helping win new work. Time back to focus on client delivery—not backend IT.
“Kavira took the stress out of IT. Their team helped us scale quickly, stay secure, and gave us peace of mind knowing our operations were handled. It’s like having a trusted partner in the background so we can focus on delivering for clients.” — Dawid Naude – Founder
