An AI-first studio, run by its founders.

APN Code builds intelligent software for companies that want technology to be a real advantage, not a cost centre.

Our story

Technology, software and AI, built as one.

APN Code started with a simple observation: the best products now combine intelligence, infrastructure and interface, yet most teams have to hire three different vendors to get them.

So we built one studio that does all three. Our engineers work across AI and machine learning, cloud and DevOps, mobile, web and real-time 3D, which means the model, the backend and the experience are designed together from day one.

50+ clients and more than 10,000 coding days later, our apps and platforms serve real users every day, and we run the servers behind many of them. We do it with a deliberately lean model, which is why our clients pay a fraction of typical agency rates for the same production-grade work.

We stay deliberately founder-led. Every client works directly with Pratap and Nikhiil, from the first call to launch and beyond. It keeps decisions fast and accountability clear.

Principles

How we think
about the work.

01 / ai-first

Intelligence by default

We ask where AI genuinely helps, and we are honest when it does not.

02 / ship

Show, don't tell

Working software every week beats slide decks. You always see real progress.

03 / own

Own the outcome

We measure success by what the product achieves, not by hours logged.

04 / handover

Built to hand over

Clean code, documentation and infrastructure as code, so your team can own it.

Leadership

The founders behind
50+ clients.

An engineering-first CEO and a product-first partner. Between them, every APN Code project has a technical owner and a product owner from the first call to long after launch.

Pratap Haldar

Founder & CEO · AI & engineering lead

Pratap founded APN Code on an AI-first view of software: products should learn, automate and improve with every user. He has led engineering across more than 50 client engagements and 10,000+ coding days, from first prototypes to platforms serving real users every day.

He designed the lean delivery model at the heart of the company: a reusable library of proven modules, AI-accelerated development and senior review on every build. It is why APN Code can deliver production-grade software in weeks, at a fraction of typical agency cost.

Nikhiil Siyaal

Partner · Product, UI/UX & Growth

Nikhiil is a product person first. He leads product strategy, UI/UX and growth at APN Code, and he is usually the first person new clients speak to. He takes a raw idea and turns it into a clear product: who it is for, the use cases that matter, the flows people will actually use and the screens that make it feel effortless.

He has designed complete products end to end, from market research and use-case mapping to wireframes, high-fidelity UI and launch. Because he owns both the product and the go-to-market, every APN Code build ships with a reason to exist, an experience people enjoy and a plan to win its first users.

  • Product strategy, roadmaps and MVP scoping
  • Use-case mapping and user research
  • UI/UX design, from wireframes to final screens
  • Market positioning and go-to-market
  • Client partnerships and growth

The team

The people behind
10,000+ coding days.

A lean core of senior engineers organised in specialist pods, with experts brought in only when a project needs them. Every pod reports directly to a founder.

pod / ai

AI & Machine Learning

LLM agents, RAG search, predictive models and the evaluation that keeps them accurate.

pod / cloud

Cloud & DevOps

Architecture, CI/CD, autoscaling and the 24/7 monitoring and on-call behind live platforms.

pod / mobile

Mobile Apps

iOS, Android and cross-platform apps, from first prototype to store releases and updates.

pod / web

Web & Platforms

SaaS platforms, portals, dashboards and fast, search-friendly websites.

pod / design

Product Design & 3D

UX, interface design and real-time 3D experiences that make products easy and memorable.

pod / delivery

QA & Delivery

Automated testing, release management and weekly demos, so nothing ships unchecked.
