About Us

Born in Dubai, building the future from Gujarat.

Two friends working in Dubai’s product scene kept hearing the same request: “We need partners who can think like founders and ship like veterans.” That sparked manki.ai—a lean crew of strategists, designers, and engineers who treat reliability as a feature.

With a Make in India vision, we chose Gujarat as home base, pairing Gulf-market insight with India’s depth of engineering talent. Every roadmap, sprint, and launch is led by the founders to keep delivery intentional, transparent, and on schedule.
