Founder“Our work begins by understanding the operation we’re building for. The interface is downstream of that — never upstream.”
A small studio
building software
that fits.
ZOIR was founded in Bangalore in 2023 by two engineers who had run out of patience with software that fights its own users. We are small on purpose — micro-teams, founder-led on every project, no relay between the people you talk to and the people who write your code.
Things we believe
Four positions
we hold.
- i.
We are a studio, not an agency.
Founder-led on every project. Same people on the discovery call as the deploy.
- ii.
We build for the operation that exists.
Not the org chart, not the roadmap deck. The actual day-to-day flow.
- iii.
Boring fundamentals beat clever ones.
Typed contracts. Versioned migrations. Documented seams. Things that age well.
- iv.
We say no to the wrong work.
We turn down projects where systems-first thinking won’t change the outcome. It is fine.
The founders
Two of us. No middle layer.

Want to work with us?
We take on a small number of projects each year. If yours sounds like a fit for systems-first thinking, write us a line.
