Named for Kautilya — the father of statecraft & law

Kautilya (Chanakya) · Arthashastra
More than two millennia ago, Kautilya set down the first systematic treatise on law, economy, and the just exercise of power. We build in that spirit: rigor over guesswork, evidence over assertion, and tools that respect the seriousness of the work.
