Why Kansoft

Our Story

Established in 2008, Kansoft has grown from building ERPs for paper-and-Excel businesses into a global engineering partner — now serving 250+ enterprise customers across India, the UAE, the USA, Europe, and Australia.

Our Origin

Where Kansoft started

Kansoft was founded in 2008 by M.L. Talesara along with co-founders Parikshit and Prashant Talesara. M.L. — a BITS Pilani alumnus and former CSI Chairman — had spent decades watching small and mid-sized industries fall behind on the technology curve. The big ERP vendors were chasing Fortune 500 contracts in Tier 1 cities. Meanwhile, the cement plants, textile mills, pharmaceutical manufacturers, infrastructure firms, healthcare providers, and trading houses that powered the rest of the economy were still running on paper, spreadsheets, and tribal knowledge.

That gap became Kansoft's first chapter. We built custom ERPs for small and mid-sized businesses across manufacturing, textiles, pharmaceuticals, infrastructure, healthcare, fintech, retail, and trade — replacing paper trails and Excel files with workflows engineered to fit how each company actually ran. Serious engineering, applied to businesses the big software houses had never bothered to understand. For many of our earliest customers, we were the people who set the foundation of their digital journey.

Our first flagship product, ATS Teleshopping CRM, was built for India's TV Commerce industry — and it proved a belief we still hold: software shouldn't just fit how a business operates today, it should let the business scale tomorrow. ATS became the largest TV Commerce platform in India, used by over 60% of the market. Customers who started on it as 10–20 person teams handling 50 orders a day grew on the same platform to handling 125,000 orders in a single day.

Going Global

From a regional engineering firm to a globally trusted partner

That track record — engineering that earns its keep, software that scales with the business — is how we grew. Word travelled, references multiplied, and a regional engineering firm became a global partner. Along the way we've helped build standout products with our customers, including Meddilink, now a global business selling IVF software to fertility clinics worldwide, and Datareel, an AI video generation platform serving enterprise customers across healthcare, banking, insurance, and travel.

Today Parikshit Talesara, Co-Founder & CEO and an Oracle alumnus with global delivery experience, leads our customer strategy and the operating model that lets us serve enterprises globally. Prashant Talesara, Co-Founder & CTO and the engineering brain of the company, drives the technical depth that lets us build credibly into niche markets — extending our capability stack horizontally across industries and vertically into specialised technologies. The leadership team is supported by trusted partners running our businesses in the US, Europe, the UAE, and Australia.

Our full values framework

Innovation

At every step, we integrate change into our work process to help customers boost and transform their businesses.

Security

Security is assured at every level — from authentication and authorization to verbal communication and data protection.

Quality Driven

With a team of experts, we deliver on-time quality work aligned with your expectations.

Teamwork

Unity is the word we follow. We respect opinions, share ideas, and provide mutual support across every engagement.

How We Think

An engineering culture, not a services factory

Most software firms grow by adding more bodies. We grew because customers kept coming back — and bringing others with them. That happened for one reason: when we ship something, it works, and it keeps working. Our engineers are encouraged to push back on a brief if something doesn't add up, prove their ideas in code before promising anything, and stay close enough to the business to know why a feature actually matters.

Roughly 10–15% of every sprint goes to research, prototyping, and learning — not as a perk, but because that's how engineers stay sharp enough to be worth recommending. Most of our growth comes from word-of-mouth. Most of our customers stay with us for years. We win business by solving the hard problem in front of us, not by talking about how we'd solve it.

Kansoft has always been an early adopter of new technology. Our team picks up the signals worth paying attention to, builds a playground to test them in, and validates the outcomes before suggesting anything to a customer. When generative AI started showing real engineering capability, we were already building on top of it — turning it into developer tooling and product features while most of the market was still using AI as a chat assistant.

Deep Ownership

Our engineers own outcomes, not tickets. They understand the business behind the brief well enough to flag what's wrong with the spec — and most of the time, they're right.

Continuous Learning

Roughly 10–15% of every sprint goes to research and learning. Engineers who stop learning stop being worth recommending — and word-of-mouth is how we grow.

Build in the Open

Lessons from one engagement become tooling for the next. Architecture decisions, gotchas, internal libraries — all shared across the team so customers don't pay for the same lesson twice.

Prototype First

We've never written a proposal we couldn't prove. New ideas — for clients or for our own tooling — earn a working prototype before they earn a slide.

Beyond Delivery

Your extended research & innovation partner

"After years at Oracle and across global engagements, I've learned that the customers we serve best aren't looking for vendors — they're looking for partners who'll stay long enough to understand their business. Our job isn't just to deliver what was scoped. It's to spot what will matter twelve months out and bring it to the table early."

Parikshit Talesara, Co-Founder & CEO

Technology Watch

We monitor relevant AI, cloud, and engineering advances and filter signal from noise. Every quarter, long-term clients receive a briefing on what's worth exploring in their domain — with recommendations grounded in their actual architecture.

Applied Prototyping

We run rapid 1–2 week innovation sprints to validate new technology in the context of a client's real codebase and deployment environment. You evaluate a working prototype, not a vendor pitch deck.

Innovation Roadmapping

Beyond the immediate backlog, we work with client leadership to identify 6–18 month technology bets aligned to business strategy — not just feature requests. These become part of the annual planning cycle.

"Kansoft develop high quality software through a customer-centric work approach, deep technological knowledge, and exceptional architectural skills, paired with extensive industrial know-how. Throughout our whole association with Kansoft, the interaction with their team has always been highly professional, and they have been helpful way beyond what could reasonably be expected from a service provider."
