A software firm in Mumbai

We find the work your team still does by hand — and build the thing that does it.

Ankrish is a software firm in Mumbai. We embed with your team, measure the process that is costing you, and build the system that removes it — then stay until it is how you work.

Drag the line on the ledger — that was a real project of ours.

Case study

Resource planning for a construction firm

Their planning ran on spreadsheets and phone calls. A full material, manpower and machinery plan took three weeks to assemble, and it was out of date by the time it circulated. We replaced it with one tool that plans day by day, tracks the actuals, and flags drift while there is still time to act.

3 wks → 1 day

And a replan takes hours, not another three weeks

Manpowerplan 85, actual 88
Materialplan 75, actual 80
Machineryplan 65, actual 87
  • PlanningDay-wise allocation of material, manpower and machinery across the whole project, from groundbreaking to handover.
  • MonitoringActual consumption tracked against the plan as work happens, so drift shows up while there is still time to act on it.
  • Decision supportAI-generated suggestions flag where a project is heading off plan and what to change before it costs money.
  • ReplanningWhen site reality shifts, the plan is rebuilt in hours instead of being started again from scratch.

This is the engagement we point to most. Ankrish is an early-stage firm — for a project like yours we will put you in touch with this client directly.

AI, where it earns its place

A model that does in seconds what your team spent an afternoon on

AI is not the product — the removed work is. But in the right spot, it does the reading, the drafting and the watching that used to take a person all day. The drift suggestion in the case study above is one of ours, running in production.

Human
in the loop

Every one of these has a person checking the output. We do not ship a model making calls that nobody reviews.

  • Reading documents
    BeforeSomeone retypes every delivery note, invoice or form into the system, field by field.
    AfterThe model reads the PDF or the photo and fills the fields. A person confirms it in seconds.
  • Drafting from your data
    BeforeThe weekly report, the quote, the summary — rebuilt from scratch every time.
    AfterDrafted from the live numbers. Your team edits instead of assembling.
  • Catching drift early
    BeforeA project is over budget by the time anyone looks at the numbers together.
    AfterThe system flags it while there is still time, and says what to change — as it did on the construction project.
  • Answering in plain language
    BeforeEvery "how many did we do last month" is a person building a report.
    AfterThey ask the tool and get the answer, with the rows it came from.

We build with the current model providers and open models both — chosen per project on cost, privacy and what runs on your infrastructure.

What we do

Take the work your team repeats by hand, and make the software do it

Four services, one job. Open each one to see the before and the after. Every project is fixed scope and fixed price, agreed before we start.

Business process automation

Best fitReporting, reconciliation, approvals, data entry, scheduling
BeforeAn invoice is typed into Tally, then Excel, then the WhatsApp group — three times, by three people, and one of them is wrong.
AfterEntered once. The sheet and the group update themselves, and the numbers match.

Custom software

Best fitOperations no off-the-shelf product handles properly
BeforePlanning lives in one senior person's head and a spreadsheet only they can read.
AfterA tool the whole team works from, with that person's logic built in and visible.

Web and application development

Best fitCustomer-facing products and internal portals
BeforeCustomers call to ask for a status you already know and have to look up each time.
AfterThey open a link and see it themselves, and your phone stops ringing for it.

Technology consulting and workshops

Best fitChoosing a stack, auditing a process, upskilling a team
BeforeA six-month software plan, a big quote, and no one sure which parts are actually worth building.
AfterA one-page call on what to build, what to buy, and what to leave alone — plus a hands-on workshop for the team.

We build for operations-heavy businesses — the kind where a spreadsheet is holding the company together:

  • Construction
  • Manufacturing
  • Logistics and distribution
  • Healthcare and clinics
  • D2C and retail
  • Professional services

Our method

Embedded with your team, not briefed from a distance

Every Ankrish project runs the same four steps. We work on site, with the people doing the job — not from a brief.

  1. 1

    Sit with the people doing the work

    Not the org-chart version of the process. The real one, including the workarounds nobody wrote down.

    Week one is a notebook and a lot of questions.

  2. 2

    Put a number on the problem

    Hours lost, errors made, decisions delayed. If we cannot quantify it, we tell you it is not worth automating yet.

    No number, no build.

  3. 3

    Build the smallest thing that removes it

    Something your team uses in weeks, not a platform you see in six months. We expand from what works.

    Live in weeks, then grow it.

  4. 4

    Stay until it is actually being used

    Adoption is the deliverable. We train the team, fix what they trip over, and hand over documentation you can act on.

    We leave when it runs without us.

Working with Ankrish

  • Scoping call

    A free 30-minute call. You describe the process; we tell you whether it is worth automating and roughly what it would take.

    No charge, no obligation.

  • Discovery

    The first weeks of the project. We sit in, map the process as it really runs, and put a number on what it costs.

    A founding engineer leads this.

  • Build

    The smallest system that removes the work, in weeks. Fixed scope and fixed price, agreed before a line of code.

    You see it working early.

  • Handover

    Training for your team and documentation you can act on. You own the code, the data and the accounts — all of it.

    Nothing locked to us.

  • After

    An agreed support window, then a support plan if you want one. We stay reachable and reply within one working day.

    The relationship does not end at go-live.
