— Workflows we automate
The busywork, handled.
The repetitive work every business runs on — messages, money, orders, admin — automated end to end, with a human in the loop where it counts.

Money in & out
Payment links, proforma invoices and sales orders raised on request and chased automatically — so cash never waits on admin.

— Bespoke builds
Software worth owning.
When off-the-shelf won't cut it, we design and ship custom systems fast, with senior product judgment and you in the room the whole way.
01
Custom ERP & internal tools
Distribution, inventory, billing — the operational backbone of a business, built to fit exactly how you work. The system your team stops fighting and starts trusting.
02
WhatsApp-native commerce
Catalogue, orders and payments where your customers already are — a storefront that lives inside the chat, with the back-office wired up behind it.
03
Knowledge & RAG systems
Permission-aware assistants grounded in your own documents — every answer sourced, and only from what each user is allowed to see. The engine behind Margin.
04
Dashboards & MIS
Live pipeline, sales and ops visibility, built for the people who decide — the whole picture on one screen, refreshed while you sleep.
05
Automation pipelines
The connective tissue — triggers, routing and hand-offs that move work between your tools automatically, with a person in the loop wherever judgment matters.

— Off-the-shelf products
Ready to run.
Two products we've built and stand behind — live, and ready for you.
Margin
A knowledge assistant for financial planners. Every answer is grounded in the right client's documents — and no one else's — with sharing controls your compliance team will actually trust.
EA Copilot
An AI command center for executive assistants — scheduling, meeting prep, approvals and follow-through in one place. Not an AI pretending to be an EA; a cockpit that makes a great one faster.

— Why us
Why teams choose us.
The reasons founders and operators keep coming back — and hand us the next thing.
01
Shipped in weeks
Live workflows and working software in weeks, not quarters. Momentum you can feel.
02
Human in the loop
AI drafts, classifies and routes; your people decide and send. You stay in control.
03
Built to adapt
We design systems that keep improving with your workflows, so launch is a starting point, not a ceiling.
04
You own it
Your code, your data, your systems — handed over clean. No lock-in, no hostages.
05
One team, end to end
Strategy, design and build under one roof. Fewer hand-offs, one point of ownership.
06
Priced to start
Start small, prove the value, scale what works. We'd rather earn the next phase.

What does a typical engagement cost?
It depends on scope. Automating a set of workflows usually starts in the low lakhs; bespoke builds scale from there with complexity. We scope and price the work before we start, so there are no surprises.
How fast can you actually ship?
Most automation workflows go live in two to four weeks. Bespoke systems ship in phases — you'll see something working early and often, not at the end of a long silence.
Do we own what you build?
Yes, fully. Your code, your data, your accounts. We hand everything over clean and document it, so you're never dependent on us to keep running.
What do you build on?
Modern, boring-in-a-good-way tools — typically Next.js and Supabase — chosen for reliability, ownership, and systems your team can live with for years.
