Infrastructure, in India and across the globe, has always been a story of ambition colliding with complexity. Behind expressways, metro networks, refineries, and power projects lie delays, cost overruns, and contractual conflicts that routinely spiral into billion-dollar battles.
For over 25 years, Rohit Singhal has lived this reality. Recognized globally as a leading construction dispute expert, he has guided governments and corporations through some of the world's most high-profile arbitrations, including disputes over Qatar's FIFA World Cup stadiums, the Mumbai–Delhi Industrial Corridor, and India's Bullet Train project.
In 2014, he founded Masin, today ranked as the 4th largest dispute consultancy in the world.
"Across $30 billion+ worth of disputes over 15 years, we kept seeing the same inefficiencies in contract administration and claims preparation," Rohit recalls.
That frustration led to the creation of Masin AI — the world's first generative AI platform for managing construction contracts and disputes.
What Masin AI Delivers
Masin AI focuses on three core areas: contract administration, claim analysis, and dispute management.
The platform is trained on 800+ real arbitration cases spanning construction, energy, infrastructure, and oil & gas, collectively worth over $30 billion.
Market Opportunity
India sees construction disputes worth $20–25 billion annually. Globally, the construction dispute market is valued at $100–120 billion each year.
Pilot projects have shown 65% efficiency gains and a 40% higher success/settlement rate.
