Our firm is led by Sheshagiri Anegondi, Managing Partner and Principal Licensing Advisor, who previously served as a Vice-President at Oracle Corporation. This experience gives us a practical understanding of enterprise licensing from both sides of the negotiating table.

Since our inception, we have delivered more than 260 engagements, helping organizations across industries navigate complex licensing agreements, identify financial and compliance risks, and make better-informed technology investment decisions.

What Makes Rythium Different?

We work exclusively for our clients, not software publishers.

Rythium is independent of the software vendors whose licensing and commercial terms we review.

We do not act as a software reseller or earn vendor commissions for recommending products.

Our advice is aligned with our clients' commercial, contractual and compliance interests.

Our approach combines four capabilities:

• Licensing expertise: Detailed interpretation of product use rights, contractual terms, licensing metrics, entitlements and deployment configurations.
• Technical analysis: Evidence-based discovery and analysis of software deployments, usage patterns, infrastructure and license requirements.
• Commercial strategy: Negotiation planning, vendor quote analysis, renewal optimization and strategies to reduce unnecessary expenditure.
• Risk management: Audit readiness & compliance remediation.
