Blackcurrant Labs Pvt. Ltd.

Blackcurrant Labs is a full-stack development shop based in India that builds web, mobile, and AI products. The company works with cloud-native architectures and has shipped applications across HVAC, fintech, edtech, plastics recycling, and media sectors. Their stated focus is on products that scale—they emphasize "cloud-based, hyper-scaled product solutions" and have demonstrated this with clients running 2000+ daily trades, 1000+ engineers across 30 locations, and 28,000 students active on their platforms.

Services and capabilities

Blackcurrant handles the full product lifecycle from concept to live operations. They work through a four-phase methodology: Deduce (research and analysis), Design (prototypes and wireframes), Develop (application building), and Deploy (CI/CD and DevOps). The team includes developers, designers, analysts, system architects, and product managers.

Their technical work spans cloud infrastructure (AWS), blockchain implementations, CRM and CPQ platforms, order management systems, multi-broker integrations, thermodynamics simulation tools, AI-powered music licensing, and service operations management systems tied to SAP. They've also done application security consulting, resolving 255 vulnerabilities across three global applications at Holcim.

Their agile methodology emphasizes flexibility while maintaining delivery timelines. They market themselves as "turn-key," meaning clients can engage them for the full journey rather than isolated development phases.

Notable work

Clients include Stulz CHSPL India (HVAC), where they built and scaled cloud-based applications for global deployment over a six-year partnership. For Lucro Plastecycle, they developed SATMA ACE, a blockchain-based plastics recycling platform that tracked 38,914 tons of CO2 saved and 28,500 tons of waste collected. BeyondSkool engaged them to build both web and mobile apps for their IQ+CQ+EQ Academy, which now serves 28,000 students across 1,800 batches. An unnamed options trading platform they built handles 2000+ daily trades across 20+ brokers. GSharp Media launched an AI-powered music licensing platform with them serving 25,000+ tracks and processing 1000+ songs per hour. For Holcim, they provided security consulting on global applications. They also built a field-force service automation system for an OEM with 600 live technicians and 30,000 tracked assets.

How they work

They operate on an agile methodology with flexible engagement. Projects move through their Deduce-Design-Develop-Deploy framework. No specific pricing model is stated in their public materials. Engagement spans from full product builds to specialized consulting (like their security work for Holcim). Team composition varies by project—they staff developers, designers, architects, and product managers as needed.

Team and credentials

No founding year, founder names, or precise headcount is disclosed publicly. The company has offices in multiple Indian cities (references to Nainital, Lonavala, Ladakh, Goa locations in team photos suggest distributed operations). No certifications, partner badges, or third-party ratings are mentioned in the source material. They built and maintain EMIT, a free time-tracking app, suggesting some internal product work alongside client engagements.
