Whorv

Whorv is a design, advertising, and digital agency based in Delhi, India, operating for 14 years. The outfit has completed 500 successful projects across roughly 125+ clients, according to their website figures (which vary slightly depending on the page). The team is small—no headcount is specified—and led by founder Karan Oberoi. Whorv does not fit neatly into one bucket: they handle branding, web design, mobile development, SEO, paid advertising, email campaigns, videography, photography, and event production. Their work spans e-commerce sites, blockchain development, corporate video, and exhibition design for clients ranging from Skoda and Paul John Single Malt to architectural designers in Australia and organic food companies across India.

Services and capabilities

The core offering splits across four areas. Design covers website and UI/UX, illustrations, branding strategy, mobile applications, and e-commerce. Development includes web, mobile, Web 3.0 smart contracts, and blockchain work. Digital encompasses organic local SEO, paid campaign management, social media marketing and strategy, email marketing, and content management. Events and production add videography (corporate, industrial, aerial), photography (industrial, product, fashion, home décor), exhibition design, corporate events, and activations (ATL and BTL).

On email marketing specifically, Whorv designs campaigns to drive repeat purchases and reduce cart abandonment. They work across platforms including Campaign Monitor, HubSpot, and Mailchimp and claim to produce "high click rate" campaigns from a 20-word brief and subscriber list. The team positions themselves as platform-agnostic, plugging into existing infrastructure. For SEO and digital work, they manage Google, LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and Taboola.

Engagement is not fixed-price. Whorv first understands job roles and timelines, then proposes shared or dedicated resources based on need. On the payment side, they charge 50% advance for most work and 100% advance for digital and paid advertising. Their pricing scales with seniority—they ask: do you want an experienced resource or a trainee?

Notable work

Clients include Dynabrade (exhibition design), RP Alloys (website, digital marketing, SEO), Luxuries of Kashmir (website, digital marketing), Paw Purrfect (website, SEO), Coral Haze (website, SEO, digital marketing), Skoda (branding, creative), Spirits and Rituals (website, branding, creative), and CEQUIN (a long-term client since 2009). Other named projects: Jiva Organic, Nuflower Foods, Shaadi Wish, Paul John Single Malt, SMS Group, Fahrenheit Auto, and Asia Spa Awards.

Testimonials mention CEQUIN's partnership since 2009 and satisfaction with Whorv's design and service alignment with organizational objectives. Rana Misho, an architectural and interior designer in Australia, praised the team for delivering a "beautiful website" despite unclear initial briefs. Karan Oberoi is described by clients as responsive and able to implement client goals across design and identity work.

How they work

Whorv runs five steps: coffee meeting (understand objectives, audience, goals), research phase, proposal (strategy and thinking), action (fine-tuning delivery), and reporting (weekly, monthly, quarterly reviews). They work on two models: case-to-case or retainership. Support is not free. The company does not offer refunds if a client dislikes the initial output; they position their team as committed to "100% output."
