About NexaWorks

Three founders. No sales layer. Only working software.

We stay on the hook for outcomes, write the code ourselves, and refuse staff-aug theater or endless discovery decks. This page is the why, the team, and what we won't do.

Our Origin

We built the studio we wished existed.

Founder-led engineering, production delivery, and partners who own risk. No sales relay races. No pitch decks without code.

May 2025: three founders were leading delivery for venture-backed teams. Projects kept stalling—not because ideas were weak, but because vendors hid behind decks and headcount. We decided to change that.

July 2025: NexaWorks. Founder-level accountability, senior engineers who code daily, delivery compressed from quarters to weeks. No sales theater—just live demos, KPIs, and transparent architecture.

First eight months: 10 production products shipped—AI resume screening, automated reporting, real-time analytics, legal research copilots. Trust earned by shipping, not by pitching.

What we refuse

  • No staff-aug masquerading as product teams.
  • No endless discovery without a KPI and owner.
  • No “trust us” slides—only working software and rollback plans.

First 8 Months

Trajectory, Not Hype

Four phases that took us from day one to a portfolio of ten shipped products.

Months 1-2

Prove the Model

What we did: Built two production pilots (AI resume screening, automated reporting) with transparent demos.

Outcome: Closed first enterprise pilots and validated 5x faster delivery cadence.

Months 3-4

Scale Delivery

What we did: Hired core engineers, hardened infra, added QA automation and observability defaults.

Outcome: Shipped three additional products with 99%+ reliability and repeatable playbooks.

Months 5-6

Expand AI Surface

What we did: Built analytics dashboard, added LLM copilots, standardized data pipelines for new verticals.

Outcome: Demonstrated revenue tracking to $179K and real-time insights across clients.

Months 7-8

Institutionalize Craft

What we did: Documented delivery rituals, partner onboarding, and risk reviews; launched legal AI research track.

Outcome: Operational maturity to handle concurrent builds with founder-level oversight on every sprint.

Team

Three founders from Mumbai, SG

Hands-on leaders accountable for every sprint, release, and customer outcome.

SG

Sahil Ghewari

Co-founder & CEO

Sahil grew up in Mumbai, studied computer engineering, and built internal tools for fast-moving product teams before founding NexaWorks. He leads product strategy and delivery rituals, spending as much time pairing with engineers as he does with clients. Sahil obsesses over turning ambiguous business goals into crisp roadmaps, removing blockers daily, and ensuring every sprint ships something demoable. Before NexaWorks he led automation initiatives across fintech and retail, proving that disciplined execution and honest communication beat bloated programs every time.

Superpower: Translate business ambiguity into a technical plan the team can ship in weeks.

Proud of: Keeping founders in the loop with real demos instead of slideware.

PB

Pavan Baber

Co-founder & CTO

Pavan is a systems engineer who has shipped distributed services, data pipelines, and AI infrastructure for high-volume platforms. At NexaWorks he designs the architecture runway, codifies engineering standards, and leads deep dives on reliability and security. Pavan cares about measurable performance: telemetry by default, latency budgets, and guardrails that keep shipping fast without sacrificing safety. He previously led backend and ML platform teams, where he learned that the fastest way to earn trust is to make systems observable and resilient from day one.

Superpower: Builds resilient systems with clear SLAs, tracing, and rollback paths baked in.

Proud of: Standing up infra that let us handle 150 concurrent uploads in week four of a build.

MS

Mangala Sawant

Co-founder & COO

Mangala is an operator from Mumbai with a background in product delivery and customer success. She keeps NexaWorks running on time—owning client onboarding, risk reviews, and the communication rhythm that keeps founders confident. Before NexaWorks she scaled delivery teams across SaaS implementations, learning how to translate technical progress into business language and unblock decisions quickly. Mangala ensures every engagement has clear success criteria, proactive updates, and a smooth path from pilot to production.

Superpower: Designs processes that keep velocity high while stakeholders stay fully informed.

Proud of: Our reputation for transparency—weekly readouts, clear risks, and no surprises.

Mission

Ship reliable automation and AI faster than anyone else.

We exist to turn ambitious ideas into production software with transparent ownership, measurable KPIs, and the craft to keep systems running smoothly after launch. If we can't demo it fast, we don't take it on.

Vision

Be the most trusted builder for founders who need working software yesterday.

A studio where founders who code lead every build, every deliverable is demoable, and refusal to ship slideware keeps trust high.

Values we operate by

Speed

Short cycles, weekly demos, production in weeks—not quarters.

Outcomes Over Output

We measure success in business impact, not ticket velocity.

Practical AI

Models only where they matter; reliable automation everywhere else.

Accountability

Founders stay on the hook for quality, timelines, and results.

Engineering Excellence

Secure defaults, observability, testing, and resilient architectures baked in.

Learning

Retros, docs, and playbooks that improve every engagement.

Why Choose NexaWorks?

Partners who stay on the hook

How we differ from vendors who sell decks and staff headcount.

Three founders, no hand-offs

You work with the founders writing code. No account managers, no sales relay races.

Proven velocity

10 production builds in 8 months. Week-2 live slices, weekly demos, and rollback rehearsals by default.

Risk on us, not you

Stop-rules in every engagement. If we miss the gate, we pause, fix, or you don’t pay to proceed.

We say no often

We reject staff-aug asks, endless discovery, and “just a deck.” We only engage with a KPI and an owner.

The Journey Ahead

We're still very early—and that's the advantage.

If you need production-grade software fast, let's talk. We'll show you live work, share our playbooks, and map a path to the first measurable win.
