Platform builds

When nothing off-the-shelf fits

Some businesses do not fit a product, and configuring one into shape costs more than it saves. We engineer the platform instead — on a core that is already running in production, so you are not paying anyone to rebuild GST invoicing and a general ledger before your own software starts.

What you are not paying to rebuild

The foundations already exist

This is the difference between engineering a platform and rebuilding an accounting system to get to one.

Billing & GST

Invoicing, GSTR-3B, E-Invoice and E-Way Bill. The compliance layer is the slowest thing to build from scratch and the least forgiving to get wrong.

Double-entry books

A real ledger that posts itself on every sale, purchase and payment — not a reporting layer bolted on afterwards.

Inventory & pricing

FIFO valuation, batch and serial tracking, multi-location stock, and pricing that survives contact with the real world.

Payments

Razorpay, BillDesk and Cashfree, with idempotent webhook handling so a retry can never double-credit an account.

Multi-tenant foundations

Database-per-tenant isolation, provisioning, and the operational tooling to run more than one customer without heroics.

Roles, permissions & audit

Access control across 62 modules, MFA, and a full audit trail on every record.

How it fits together

Your surfaces, our core, one ledger

Whatever your business needs on the outside, everything settles in one place on the inside — so a change made in one screen does not become three reconciliations later.

Boxes on the left and right get built for you. The core in the middle already exists.

How a build runs

Four steps, no discovery theatre

We map your operation, not your feature list

The useful question is what actually happens in a day — who touches what, where the money moves, and which step everyone currently does in a spreadsheet.

You get the core on day one

Billing, books, inventory, payments, tenancy and audit are already running. The build starts above them rather than beneath them.

We build the part that is actually yours

The workflows nobody else has. That is where the engineering goes, and it is the only part that should cost you a custom build.

It stays yours

Your data in your tenant, exportable, with a documented API. No lock-in and no hostage data.

Kora Hot Box

A food-service platform we built on the Operato core. It has not launched yet — Kora Hot Box goes live in October 2026, and we will publish the full story then. Until it is trading, we are keeping the detail to ourselves.
