We create software that really delivers for Indian companies

Originating in 2013 after watching too many firms waste money on apps that looked good but didn't address real issues. We're a compact team based in Telangana, and we've shipped more than 35 mobile apps for clients across India.

Apps Designed for Actual Users

Here's something we learned early: most app development companies in India focus on features that sound impressive in meetings. But when the app launches, nobody uses it the way they expected.

We spend the first week just talking to the people who'll actually use your app. Not surveys or focus groups – real conversations. A restaurant owner in Hyderabad taught us more about delivery apps in 30 minutes than any design course ever did.

Your customers aren't tech experts, and they shouldn't need to be. We build apps that make sense the first time someone opens them.

Our Unique Approach

How Creating an App Really Happens

No buzzwords, just the straightforward process we follow for every client.

1

Clarifying Your Real Requirements

We spend two to three weeks simply listening. Recently a retail client asked for a loyalty app; after speaking with their customers we realized they needed clearer inventory visibility. We built that instead, and their sales rose substantially in Q1.

2

Design Tailored to How People in India Use Phones

We design based on how people in India actually use their devices, taking into account slower connections, a variety of screen sizes, and multiple languages. Your grandparents should be able to use the app without needing help.

3

Developing and Testing Under Real-World Conditions

We test apps on older Android devices with unreliable networks, not just on the latest models with perfect WiFi. Your app needs to work in Tier 2 cities during rush hour, not only in a developer's office.

4

Launch Support That Really Helps

The first month after launch is when you'll have questions. We're available via WhatsApp, phone, or email. When a payment gateway issue affected a client at 11 PM during a sale, we fixed it within an hour. That's part of the service.

Why Clients Choose to Stay with Us

Most of our work comes from referrals. Here's what clients find most important after the app goes live.

We Clarify Questions Simply

We avoid technical jargon unless you request it. If something goes wrong, we describe what happened and how we're fixing it in plain language.

"They explained why our app was slow in rural areas and fixed it without making us feel foolish for asking." — Retail chain owner, Karnataka

Budgets That Don't Balloon

We provide an upfront price range based on similar projects we've completed. If anything unexpected comes up, we discuss it before spending your money. In the prior year, most projects stayed within a small margin of the original estimate.

"There are no hidden fees or surprise charges. They told us exactly what items would cost and why." — Healthcare startup founder, Mumbai

A Focus on Longevity

We build apps that can grow with your business. A logistics client began with basic tracking in 2019. Today they're handling about 3,500 deliveries daily on the same foundation. We planned for that from day one.

"They inquired about our five-year roadmap during the initial meeting. That prevented us from rebuilding everything later." — Logistics company director, Delhi

Tailored to the Indian Market Realities

Developing apps for India requires tackling challenges unseen in Silicon Valley: patchy connectivity, multilingual users, differing device capabilities, and a wide range of payment options.

We've partnered with companies across twelve states. A delivery app that runs smoothly in Bengaluru could falter in Patna if local conditions aren't considered.
