What's in the Build Plan

Four things, delivered free in 48 hours.

Scope
Exactly what gets built, page by page or module by module — no ambiguity about what's included.
Stack
The specific technology choices for your build, and why they fit your business, not just what's trendy.
Timeline
A realistic week-by-week delivery schedule, from kickoff to launch.
Fixed price
One number. No hourly billing, no scope creep, no surprise invoices.

One deep case study

Sevabharathi Vidyakendra — from spreadsheets to a live ERP.

Challenge

A 550-student school running admissions and records on paper and Kannada (Nudi-font) spreadsheets — nothing searchable, nothing shared, no way to scale past one person's memory.

Build

A full ERP — admissions, students, records — with the Kannada data transliterated and structured for real search and reporting.

Outcome

Live in production, used every day by staff, serving 550+ students. The school runs on it now, not spreadsheets.

Working with me from the US

Remote, async-friendly, nothing lost in translation.

Timezone
Bengaluru evenings = US mornings. Live overlap every workday, plus async Loom updates so nothing waits on a call.
Communication
Written scope before code. Weekly demo of the live build. Everything documented.
Payment
USD invoices via Stripe or Wise, milestone-based — you never pay for work you haven't seen.
IP
Contract assigns full IP on final payment. Repos and docs transferred. No lock-in.
How I work

Architecture first. Then we build.

01
Audit
I map your goals, users, data and stack. You leave with a written scope and a fixed quote.
02
Architecture
The data model and system design, before a line of code.
03
Build & ship
You see it live early and often — feedback every week, not one big reveal.
04
Iterate & support
Fixes, features, handover. You own the code and docs — no lock-in.
Plans

Pick the scope. Fixed price either way.

FAQ

Questions, answered honestly.

Yes — completely. Every repo, every doc, fully handed over at the end. No lock-in, no black box, no licence you keep paying for. If you ever want to take it in-house or hand it to another dev, you can.
A modern, production-grade stack — boring, proven technology chosen for reliability, not resume-building. The goal is software that still runs in two years, not a tech demo.
Yes. You work directly with the engineer writing the code — no account managers, no telephone game between you and whoever actually builds it. Faster decisions, and nothing lost in translation.
USD invoices via Stripe or Wise, paid in milestones tied to what's actually built — you never pay for work you haven't seen. No large upfront deposit.
Every project starts with a written scope and contract covering timeline and price. Full IP — code, repos, docs — transfers to you on final payment. No lock-in.
I'm in Bengaluru; most of my evenings overlap with US mornings, so we get live call time every workday. Anything outside that overlap moves async — a Loom walkthrough instead of waiting on a meeting.
If your budget and timeline line up, you'll land straight on my calendar to book an intro call. Otherwise, you'll get your free scoped Build Plan by email within 48 hours — no call required, no obligation to hire me.
