Software & AI engineering · Hyderabad

From the app in your hand to the AI running in your server room.

Ishtahsoft designs and builds mobile apps, business software and private AI systems for companies that want senior engineers, plain answers and software that keeps working after launch.

Building since 2014Microsoft-certified engineersYour code, your IP

Services

Three new practices, built on over a decade of delivery.

We still do the work clients have trusted us with since 2014. These three practices are where most new projects start today.

Outsourced product development

A dedicated team that owns your product roadmap end to end, from first release to version ten.

Product teams · SaaS · long-term ownership

Web applications

Customer portals, dashboards and line-of-business systems that are fast, accessible and easy to change.

React · Angular · ASP.NET Core · Node.js

Machine learning & NLP

Classification, extraction, forecasting and language models trained or tuned on your own data.

Python · PyTorch · Hugging Face · Azure AI

UX & UI design

Research, wireframes and design systems in Figma, handed to engineers who build exactly what was designed.

Figma · design systems · usability testing

Testing & automation

Automated test suites and CI pipelines so every release is checked before your users see it.

Playwright · Selenium · Azure DevOps · GitHub Actions

Systems integration

Connect the tools you already pay for so data moves between them without copy and paste.

SharePoint · Dynamics CRM · BizTalk · REST APIs

Cloud on Microsoft Azure

Event-driven and data platforms on Azure, from messaging and streaming to data lakes and pipelines.

Service Bus · Event Hubs · Stream Analytics · Data Lake · Data Factory

Desktop & client/server applications

Windows and client/server systems that teams rely on every day, built new or modernised.

.NET · WPF · WinForms · SQL Server

Mobile apps · recently shipped

Apps we've built and released recently.

A selection of apps now live on the App Store and Google Play.

“ISHTAH has been our development partner for our MyUnikorn pet-care platform from ideation to inception. In addition, they have helped with excellent branding and design along with innovation on the services platform offering from us. Post go-live, they have also provided system support for these initiatives. They have a strong technical team and take on responsibility enthusiastically.”

AI-led software development

AI writes the first draft. Our engineers own the result.

AI agents take on the repetitive parts of building software. Senior engineers set the direction, check every change and stay accountable for what ships.

EngineerAI agent
Engineer

Turn your goal into a written spec

Screens, data, rules and acceptance tests agreed with you before any code is written.

AI agent

Scaffold, draft code and write tests

Boilerplate, CRUD screens, API clients and test cases are generated against the spec.

Engineer

Review, rework and harden

Architecture, security and edge cases are checked line by line. Anything unclear is rewritten by hand.

AI agent

Run the checks

Automated tests, linting and security scans run on every change.

Engineer

Demo to you and ship

You see working software every sprint and decide what goes live.

What stays the same when we use AI

  • A named senior engineer is responsible for your codebase.
  • No change merges without human review and passing tests.
  • Your code and data are never used to train public models.
  • You own the source code, the documentation and the IP.
  • We can run the AI tooling on your own infrastructure if your policy requires it.

On-premise AI infrastructure

Your own AI, on your own hardware.

For teams that can't send data to a public AI service, we set up a private stack that answers questions about your documents, drafts text and powers your internal apps, all inside your network.

Data stays in the building

Contracts, patient records and source code are processed on your servers, which keeps compliance teams and auditors comfortable.

Predictable cost

A one-time hardware investment and a support plan instead of per-token bills that grow with every new user.

Works offline

Plants, labs and secure sites keep their AI tools when the internet link is slow or switched off.

One team end to end

We set up the servers and build the apps on top, so nobody has to coordinate three vendors.

REFERENCE BUILD · Team of ~200Example only
Compute

Every build is sized to your users, documents and response-time targets after a short assessment.

Phase 1

Assess

Use cases, data sources, user count and security rules.

Phase 2

Size & procure

Hardware spec and vendor quotes you can take to finance.

Phase 3

Install & connect

Models, retrieval, SSO and your first internal assistant live.

Phase 4

Operate

Model updates, monitoring, tuning and support.

How we work

Four steps from idea to software in use.

01

Discover

We learn your business, users and constraints, then write down scope, risks and a budget range.

Typically 1–2 weeks
02

Prototype

A clickable design or working proof of concept so you can judge the idea before committing to the build.

Typically 1–3 weeks
03

Build

Two-week sprints with a demo at the end of each one. You see progress, not status reports.

Sized to scope
04

Run & improve

Launch, monitoring and a support plan. We stay on to fix, update and add features.

Ongoing

Fixed-scope project

Best for: a clear, well-defined build

Agreed scope, timeline and price. Good for prototypes, mobile apps and AI pilots.

Dedicated team

Best for: evolving products

Engineers who work as part of your team, with a monthly plan you can scale up or down.

Product partnership

Best for: companies without in-house engineering

We own design, development and operations for your product so you can focus on customers.

Keep the customer happy.

Ishtah Software Solutions was founded in Hyderabad in 2014. Our engineers have worked with leading product and consulting companies around the world, so we bring a consultancy's process and customer focus together with a product company's appetite for innovation.

Each person on the team is handpicked for technical ability, communication, customer focus and problem solving, with deep experience across .NET, Azure, integration, mobile, SharePoint and CRM. We judge our work by one measure: whether you would hire us again.

“Ishtah” comes from the Sanskrit for what is wished for. Our job is to deliver it.
