About us

A small studio with a serious engineering habit.

DarkenTech is a founder-led software house serving clients on four continents. No layers, no bloat — just people who build.

Serving The Web...

Founder in the room

You never get handed to an account manager. The founder who scoped your project is in the codebase, in the reviews, and on the calls — from kickoff to launch and beyond.

Remote-first, timezone-fluent

No office, no overhead, no borders. Our clients span Italy, the US, India, Malaysia, Pakistan, and Mexico — we work where the work is, and communicate like it matters.

Operations software is our home turf

ERPs, POS systems, loyalty programs, supply chains — we specialize in software that a business leans on daily. If it breaks, someone can't sell coffee. So it doesn't break.

Long relationships over quick wins

TastyPlan became TastyPlan Manager. Frosty grew new modes. Most of our clients come back for a second and third build — that repeat rate is the metric we care about most.

Team

Led from the front.

DarkenTech is founder-led by design — the person accountable for your product is the person building it.

Ayan Ali

Founder — engineering, product, and everything in between.

LinkedIn ↗

Behind the founder is a distributed network of engineers and designers assembled per project — small enough to stay fast, senior enough to ship platforms.

Next project

Your operation deserves software built for it — not around it.
