·About
A small firm that designs software before it builds it.
DoonDzn is an engineering studio in Dehradun, India. We work out what a system has to be — data model, screens, integrations, scope, price — and then build it. The team stays small enough that the person who designs your work is the person who builds it.
Abhijeet Ray
Founder and lead engineer. Every project is discussed directly with me. When you brief us, I am listening; when your system ships, I have reviewed every decision in it.
That is not a service promise, it is a constraint on how much work we can take — which is also why the floor is where it is.
·How we work
Five commitments, all checkable.
We design it before we build it
What the software has to be — data model, screens, integrations, scope, price, date — gets worked out in writing first. You hold that document, and it is yours whether or not we build from it.
You own everything
Every line of code, every design file, every architecture document is yours. No dependency on us, no lock-in, no licence. Take it anywhere, any time.
Cheap is the expensive option
A ₹30,000 site that fails under real load costs ₹10L to rebuild properly. We would rather say that up front than take a project at a price that guarantees the bad outcome.
We turn work down
If we cannot build something well, we do not. If a simpler answer exists — including leaving your system alone — we say so. That is what makes a yes worth anything.
No layer between you and the build
No account managers, no juniors you never meet. Every conversation is with someone who understands the technical depth of what you are asking for.
- NDA
- Signed before any technical detail
- Proposal
- Fixed price, before you commit
- Reply
- Within one business day
- Support
- 30 working days post-launch
- After that
- No standby retainers
- Ownership
- 100% — source, infra, docs
·Fit
Worth knowing before a call.
We work well with you if
- You have an idea, or a direction, and need it specified before it is built
- The software is load-bearing — money, stock, patients or students move through it
- You understand that good engineering has a real cost, and why
- You want a team that will tell you the truth rather than take the spec
- You value ownership and a system built for real scale
We are the wrong firm if
- You are shopping for the lowest quote rather than the lowest risk
- You need hands to execute a specification someone else owns
- The budget is under ₹2.5L for a custom platform
- Nobody internally can own the decisions the work will require

Then it is probably worth a conversation. Describe what you want to exist — rough is fine — and you will hear back within one business day.
