Building Apps That Actually Work
We started SaliaueUP because we kept seeing businesses struggle with apps that looked nice but didn't solve real problems. After years of working with companies across Maharashtra and beyond, we realized something important: good mobile development isn't about following trends. It's about understanding what your business actually needs.
Our team works from Nashik, but our apps reach users across India. We've built everything from inventory management systems for retail chains to customer engagement platforms for hospitality businesses. Each project teaches us something new about what works in real-world conditions.
How We Got Here
Three years ago, we were freelancers taking on whatever projects came our way. We noticed a pattern: clients would come to us after spending money on apps that either crashed frequently or didn't match how their business actually operated. That frustration drove us to focus specifically on mobile development that fits real business workflows.
We've learned to ask different questions during planning. Instead of "what features do you want," we ask "what problems are your employees facing right now?" That shift changed everything. Our apps became tools people actually used instead of downloaded once and forgot about.
Today we work with retail stores, restaurants, logistics companies, and service providers across multiple cities. Each industry has its own quirks, and we've adapted our development approach to handle those specific needs.
Testing With Real Users
We don't guess whether something works. Before finalizing any app, we watch actual users interact with it. You'd be surprised how often what seems obvious to developers confuses the people who'll use it daily.
Honest Timelines
Building quality apps takes time. We'd rather tell you it'll take eight weeks and deliver on schedule than promise five weeks and miss the deadline. Our planning includes buffer time because unexpected challenges always come up.
Post-Launch Support
The app going live isn't the finish line. We stick around to fix bugs, adjust features based on user feedback, and make sure your team knows how to manage the system. Most of our clients stay with us for ongoing updates.
Clear Communication
We skip the technical jargon unless you specifically want it. Our updates explain progress in plain terms, and we make sure you understand the options before any major decision. No surprises halfway through development.
Scalable Architecture
We build apps assuming your business will grow. The code structure can handle increased users, additional features, and integration with other systems you might adopt later. Starting over because the app can't scale is expensive.
Security From Day One
Data protection isn't something we add at the end. Every app includes encryption, secure authentication, and regular security audits. We've seen what happens when companies treat security as an afterthought, and it's not pretty.
Who's Behind The Code
Small team, focused expertise. We handle projects ourselves instead of outsourcing to unfamiliar contractors.
Pranav Kulkarni
Founder & Lead Developer
I've been writing code for mobile apps since college, but the real education came from watching my first few projects fail in the field. Turns out, knowing Swift and Kotlin doesn't automatically mean you understand how delivery drivers use navigation apps or how shop owners manage inventory during rush hours.
These days I split time between coding core features and meeting with clients to understand their daily operations. That second part matters more than people realize. The best technical solution means nothing if it doesn't fit how the business actually runs.
Outside of work, I test new frameworks and occasionally speak at local developer meetups in Nashik about practical mobile development challenges we've encountered. Most of my evenings involve debugging something that worked fine in testing but acts weird with real user data.
Our Development Process
We follow a structured approach that balances planning with flexibility for adjustments based on what we learn during development.
Discovery & Planning
We spend time understanding your current workflow before suggesting solutions. This usually involves shadowing employees, reviewing existing systems, and identifying bottlenecks. Documentation happens here so we're all aligned on what we're building.
Prototype Development
We create a working prototype with core functionality so you can interact with the app concept early. This catches misunderstandings before we've built everything. Changes at this stage are straightforward compared to altering finished code.
Full Development
Once the prototype gets approval, we build the complete system. You'll receive weekly updates showing progress and any technical decisions we needed to make. We handle both frontend interface and backend infrastructure during this phase.
Testing & Refinement
The app goes through multiple testing rounds: our internal checks, your team's feedback, and limited real-world trials. We fix bugs, adjust confusing interfaces, and optimize performance. Launch happens only when the app handles actual use cases reliably.
