Faisalabad, Pakistan · taking new projects for Q3
Recent workSoftware for the
operations team
you actually have.
We're a small studio based in Faisalabad, working with teams across Pakistan and abroad. We sit with your team, find the two or three steps that cost you the most time, and build the smallest piece of software that fixes them. Usually in about six weeks.
60+ teams shipped with us

— What we usually find
Most growing teams aren't short on people.
They're short on glue.
The work is getting done. It's just held together by tribal knowledge, a couple of heroes, and one or two spreadsheets nobody is allowed to touch. A short list of things we keep seeing →
field notes
Four scenes you'll probably recognize.
Composite sketches from real client kickoffs. Names and times changed, feeling preserved.
Wednesday, 2:47pm01 / 04
Re-keying the same order into three different systems.
CRM, shipping tool, accounting. Every order. The intern noticed first.
Friday, 6:12pm02 / 04
Building the Monday report by hand, again.
Five tabs of CSV exports, a pivot table, and a prayer that nothing changed since last week.
Tuesday, 9:30am03 / 04
Quotes that take a full day to go out.
Three approvals over email. The customer found the competitor before yours arrived.
Every morning04 / 04
The one person who knows how it all works.
When they take PTO, the whole process pauses politely until they get back.
Our response
We don't replace your team.
We just put down floorboards where things keep falling through.
Pick the two or three steps that hurt the most. We build the smallest fix that holds. Then we look at the next two. The compounding effect is what people notice three months in.
What teams notice after
- Quotes out the door same day, not next week
- Reports that build themselves overnight
- Customer emails answered in minutes, not days
- Approvals that route instead of waiting in an inbox
- Onboarding that runs without a printed checklist
- Visibility into where work actually stalls
We'll do the napkin math with you on the first call — and tell you honestly if it isn't worth doing.
— What we build
Four kinds of work.
Most projects use two.
Pick what fits. We'll tell you what we'd skip. We're not trying to sell you all four.
01 · What it looks like
Internal automation
Order, quote, invoice, support — the handoffs between systems where things keep falling. We replace the copy-paste with software that just does it.
- Quote-to-cash without manual re-keying
- Daily ops reports that build themselves overnight
- Approvals that route instead of waiting in inboxes
- Sync between CRM, ERP, helpdesk, and accounting
Example
Solar installer, Lahore
Replaced a 12-step manual quote process with a single form. Quotes that took a day now go out in under 20 minutes.
Not sure which fits? Take the 4-minute assessment — we'll send back a written take, not a sales call.Full case studies
— How we work
Four phases. Six weeks, give or take.

Phase 01 · Discover
Week 1
Step 01 of 04
Sit with the team. Watch the work.
Half a day shadowing the people doing the work. We map every step, time the friction, and write down what surprised us. No assumptions, no off-the-shelf pitch.
What you getWritten observations + a short list of what to fix first
A
Phase 02 · Architect
Week 2
Step 02 of 04
Sketch the smallest thing that fixes it.
We draft the simplest design that solves the friction, walk you through it, and trim anything that doesn't earn its keep. You sign off before we write code.
What you getPlain-English design doc + fixed scope and price
C
Phase 03 · Construct
Weeks 3-5
Step 03 of 04
Build in the open. Ship weekly.
Working software lands in your hands every Friday. Your team gives feedback on real screens, not slides. We adjust as we go — that's the point.
What you getLive system, integrated into your real workflow
E
Phase 04 · Evolve
Ongoing
Step 04 of 04
Keep it sharp after launch.
We don't disappear. Monthly check-ins, lightweight changes when something shifts, and an honest call about what to build next. Or nothing — if nothing needs building.
What you getSame engineers, same number to call
— How we're different
We're not the cheapest.
We're the ones who pick up.
A few quiet promises we keep, and a few common patterns we don't follow. Toggle to compare on mobile.
Topic
Most agencies
Prob N Tech
Timeline
Weeks 1–6. Working software in your hands by week 3.
Who shows up
The engineer who wrote it is the engineer who answers the phone.
Scope & pricing
Fixed scope, fixed price. We re-bid if scope changes, not silently.
After launch
Same team, monthly check-ins, lightweight changes included for the first 90 days.
What you own
Your code, your data, your accounts. Documented for the next person.
If it doesn't work
We'll tell you on the first call if we don't think it's worth doing.
“Pick a partner you'd be comfortable calling at 9pm when the order pipeline is down. That's usually a small team, not a logo.”
— from a recent kickoff doc
We're not for everyone. If you need a 30-person delivery org, an enterprise procurement track, and an SOW with twelve appendices, we're probably the wrong shop — and we'll tell you so on the first call.

— What you can expect
Six small promises
we've learned to keep.
No guarantees in a frame on the wall — just a short list of habits we've picked up over six years of small projects.
01 · Availability
When something breaks, the person who built it answers.
No ticket queue, no offshore handoff, no five-day SLA. Same engineer, one number, real Slack channel.
02 · Where we are
Faisalabad, PK.
Based in Faisalabad, working with teams across Pakistan and remote clients abroad. Happy to meet on-site when it helps — usually does.
03 · Cadence
Working software every Friday.
Not slides. Real screens you can click.
04 · Pricing
Fixed scope. Fixed price.
No invoice surprises. If scope changes, we re-bid out loud.
05 · What you own
Your code, your accounts, your data.
Documented for the next person, in case the next person isn't us.
06 · A quiet rule
If a feature won't earn its keep within a year, we'll talk you out of building it.
Most agencies get paid more for saying yes. We'd rather have you around in five years than build the wrong thing this quarter.
— The numbers we'll stand behind
A short list,
without the asterisks.
We've seen the “612% ROI” agency slides too. These are the numbers we can actually point at — sourced from our own books and client check-ins, last updated this quarter.

Clients still on retainer a year later
as of last quarter
* The number we'd trust most is the boring one: how many of our clients are still working with us a year later. That's the one we watch.
— Where we've been useful
Nine industries.
Hover for a real example.
Not industry-specific software — just software shaped around how each one actually runs. The patterns repeat more than you'd expect.
Not on this list? Tell us what you do — the patterns usually translate.
— Six weeks, give or take
Discovery on Monday.
Working software by week three.
Most projects fit a four-step rhythm. It's opinionated on purpose — long planning phases are where small projects go to die.
Week 101 / 04
Half-day shadow.
We sit next to the people doing the work. We don't read decks. We watch the screens, time the friction, and write down what surprised us.
what you getField notes · first-week summary
Week 202 / 04
One-page sketch.
We draft the smallest fix in plain English, walk you through it, and trim anything that doesn't earn its keep. You sign off before any code gets written.
what you getDesign doc · fixed scope & price
Weeks 3-503 / 04
Build in the open.
Working screens land in your hands every Friday. Your team gives feedback on real software, not slides. We adjust as we go — that's the whole point of going fast.
what you getWeekly builds · shared Slack channel

Stay close after.
Monthly check-ins for as long as it's useful. Lightweight changes included for the first 90 days. After that, an honest call about what to build next — or nothing.

— The two of us
A small studio
with a short bench.
We're two founders and a few collaborators we've worked with for years. No bench of juniors waiting to be assigned to your account. The people who pitch are the people who build.
Plate 01
01 · CEO & Co-founder
Muhammad Faizan Ashraf
Spent the last decade writing the kind of internal software you don't usually see — the boring back-office stuff that quietly keeps growing companies from breaking. Still does most of the building.
“If a feature won't pay for itself in a year, I'd rather talk you out of it than build it.”
Plate 02
02 · Co-founder, delivery & ops
Sarmad Aslam
Came up running operations at growing service firms, so the question I'm used to is “will the people actually use this?” That ends up being the only one that matters.
“The first version is rarely the right version. We just want it in your hands fast enough to find out.”
“We started this because we got tired of watching good companies pay too much for software they wouldn't end up using. Six years and sixty teams later, we're still mostly fixing that.”

— What clients say after
The kind of feedback
that doesn't fit on a pull-quote.
Eight notes from people we've shipped with. Hover to slow it down, read the whole thing. None of them are paid endorsements — if you want, we'll put you in touch.
We stopped re-keying orders into three systems. The team got their Tuesdays back.

The chat assistant handles the questions we used to answer ten times a day. The phone is quieter and our staff is happier.

If we're a good fit, kickoff usually happens within 7-10 days. The first thing we do is sit with your team for half a day — not a slide deck, just shadowing. Most projects are running in real workflows by week three.
Last thing · the close
If two of the patterns
on this page sounded
like your week, let's talk.
Thirty minutes, free, and free of slide decks. We'll listen, ask too many questions, and at the end we'll either propose something or point you toward someone better suited. Either way you'll leave with a sharper read of what's slowing your team down.
