Squash Apps — CTO-led custom software & AI development
🇺🇸 Serving US clients · PT/ET-aligned pods · USD invoicing

US-aligned engineering pods.
Senior engineers in 7 days.

Squash Apps doesn't operate a US office — we serve US clients with PT/ET-aligned pods delivered from our Coimbatore hub. CTO-led, US-LLC contracting available, USD invoicing, full IP assignment by default. The trade-off: not in your building. The win: same delivery quality at a third the cost, with no body-shop turnover.

US engagement model

What working with us in the US actually looks like.

Time-zone-overlap pods

We pick engineers for the time zone, not just the stack. PT, ET and CT clients each get a custom overlap schedule with daily syncs in your business hours.

US-LLC contracting on request

Most US clients prefer to contract via our US LLC (California). Procurement-friendly W-9, ACH and wire. We can also contract directly via our Indian entity if your team prefers.

Full IP assignment

All source code, designs and deliverables assigned to the client on a per-engagement basis. No platform lock-in, no shared-IP nonsense.

SOC 2 / HIPAA / PCI ready

Internal controls align with SOC 2 Type II. For HIPAA and PCI we deploy into your cloud account with documented BAA-friendly architecture.

No middle layer

Srijith sells, Srijith reviews. The engineer on the demo call is the engineer who writes the code. No bait-and-switch.

Pricing visible up front

Pods from $10k/mo. AI MVPs from $25k. Fixed-scope projects from $25k. The numbers are on the Pricing page — no hide-the-quote tricks.

Frequently asked questions

Do you have a US office?

We don't operate a physical US office today. Our two offices are the Coimbatore engineering hub (Tamil Nadu, India) and the Dubai Silicon Oasis MENA office. For US-region clients we structure pods around PT or ET — daily syncs at the start or end of your business day, engineering runs overnight in IST, work lands on your desk for the morning review.

How do contracts and invoicing work for US clients?

We can contract via our US LLC (California) or directly via our Indian entity, depending on what your procurement team prefers. Invoicing in USD via ACH or wire. Mutual NDA standard before any technical discussion. Full IP assignment to the client on engagement closeout — no carve-outs, no platform lock-in.

Do you cover both US coasts?

Yes. We've delivered to clients across the West Coast (SaaS, wealth-tech, HealthTech) and the East Coast (FinTech, B2B SaaS). We can pick the engineer or tech-lead seat that overlaps with your office hours; most clients run with daily syncs at 9 am local time.

Do you sign US-style NDAs and MSAs?

Yes. We sign mutual NDAs before any technical discussion, work under your form of MSA (California-law default; we can adopt other state forms), and assign all IP to the client by default on engagement closeout.

What about SOC 2 / HIPAA / PCI DSS compliance?

Our internal controls align with SOC 2 Type II — access reviews, audit logging, encryption at rest and in transit. For HIPAA and PCI workloads we deploy customer data into your AWS / Azure / GCP account — not ours — with documented BAA-friendly architecture. PCI scope is minimised by design.

How does the US engagement actually work?

First call with Srijith (West Coast hours by default). Written proposal in 24h. Optional 2-week paid trial sprint. Full onboarding into your standups, repos and tools within 7 days. Sprint cadence runs in your time zone, not ours.

Pricing in USD?

Yes. Pods from $10k/month (single senior engineer) to $32k/month (growth pod) to custom (enterprise pod). Fixed-scope projects from $25k. AI MVPs from $25k–$60k. See the Pricing page for the full catalogue.
