We knew campus life before we built for it.

Ashish and Bishnu began building together as engineering students and hostel roommates at university. Pranjul saw the opportunity to make university hostel admissions work better. In 2022, we committed fully to building FretBox for universities.

  1. Campus roots

    Student life, hostel life and real campus experiences shaped our perspective.

  2. A university focus

    We saw the opportunity to make university systems work better.

  3. Built through trust

    In 2022, we committed fully to building FretBox for universities.

The next idea often starts on campus.

Universities helped us see what to build next.

Room choice

A university wanted students to choose their room and roommate without queues.

That request helped us put student choice within university-defined rules.

Dining experience

A campus asked for cafeteria food ordering from hostel rooms.

Everyday convenience became part of the student experience.

Campus operations

A university leader asked us to connect the rest of the campus.

Residential life opened the door to CampusOS.

Attendance intelligence

An administrator asked us to simplify classroom attendance.

That conversation led to Pratyak.

Four founders. One shared commitment.
