We are experts at building high quality products from scratch. 

We work in 3 modes
- We work with early stage startups as their core product team & launch their first version of the product
- We work with corporate venture builders to help them build lean startups for their clients
- We work with large enterprises as their innovation team & help them build products like a startup

We do this by building dedicated product teams that works exclusively with each of our clients until their internal team is ready to take it in house.

We build in 3 months what others struggle to do in 6+ months.

Co-Founder & CEO

Napses Technologies

We built AIRA - an artificial intelligent recruiter that communicates with the aspiring candidates on phone and whatsapp, in their native language & makes the process hiring 10x more efficient. 

Built it to an operationally profitable business with minimal external investment. Some of our customers were Swiggy, Dunzo, HDFC, Aegis BPO & many more

Given the drop in recruitment activities after the onset of Covid, we have pivoted to other businesses. 

MVPRockets - we help visionary entrepreneurs build functional MVPs to validate/invalidate their hypotheses  and get them ready to scale. 

TestNinjas - We help successful tech startups automate their regression testing & bring themto zero business disruptions in 3 months. 

Napses remains as a parent/holding company of MVPRockets & Test Ninjas.
