We build custom CRMs (customer intelligence, lead scoring), ERP systems (extend Tally / Zoho / BUSY / SAP B1), and BI dashboards for CXOs. AI deployments are privacy-conscious by default, with audit logs and explicit operational boundaries.

Three reasons IN SMEs stop shopping after talking to us.
[01] Home market, deep operator vocabulary
We've built across stone trading, freight, wealth advisory, family offices and SaaS in India. Our brief reads like it's from someone who's worked a Bangalore showroom or a Kochi backwater logistics line, not parachuted in.
[02] Multi-lingual where it matters
Hindi, Kannada, Malayalam, Tamil and English fluency on the team. Stakeholder interviews and end-user research happen in the operator's first language. UI translations handled by your team or partner; we wire the technical i18n.
[03] Privacy-conscious by default
AI agents deployed with explicit operational boundaries, audit logs and retrieval citations. India DPDP-ready posture (compliant once your DPO signs off); data residency in India region available on AWS Mumbai or Azure India for engagements that need it.
Frequently asked questions.
-
[01] Where in India do you operate? +
Bangalore is our home studio and we travel across South India for discovery sprints and weekly on-site visits. Most active in Bangalore and Kochi; we also take engagements in Chennai, Hyderabad, Mumbai, Pune and Delhi NCR depending on fit. Travel cost is folded into the engagement.
-
[02] Do you work with family-run SMEs? +
Yes, a big share of our India work. Family-run trading, distribution and manufacturing businesses where the patriarch or matriarch is still the de-facto CXO. We design for that decision-making rhythm: dashboards on the phone, quick approval workflows, audit trails that explain themselves to the next generation taking over.
-
[03] Can you handle GST, e-invoicing and statutory reporting? +
ERP and accounting integrations handle GST invoice generation, e-invoicing (IRN / QR), and TDS / TCS line-item tagging. Statutory reporting cycles are surfaced in admin dashboards. We always recommend a CA firm signs off the actual submissions; we provide the data layer.
-
[04] Do you build for Tally, Zoho Books or BUSY users? +
Regularly. The pattern is: keep the accounting backbone where your CA is comfortable (Tally / Zoho / BUSY / SAP B1) and build the custom layer on top for inventory, dispatch, quoting, customer intelligence, or whatever's specific to your operation. Data flows back into the backbone so the books stay clean.
-
[05] How does pricing work for India engagements? +
Same as everywhere else: quoted in writing after a 30-minute brief, fixed-price, no surprises. We're transparent that engagements here typically price lower than UAE / AU / DE work because the on-site travel cost is near zero and the multi-lingual team is local. The quality bar is identical.
