Cre8ive Labs

Cre8ive Labs is a software development and design agency founded in 2017 by Kunal Lodha, an independent telecom consultant, and Nidhi Lodha, an ex-Accenture software engineer. The pair started the company after working with a venture-backed startup in Austin, Texas, where they saw firsthand how quality development at reasonable cost could drive business growth. Today the team operates from India with a 97% client retention rate, having completed over 100 projects for 110+ customers across eight years.

The company positions itself as a partner for startups and small-to-mid-size businesses building custom web applications, eCommerce platforms, and mobile apps. They work across healthcare, shipping, education, technology, nonprofits, finance, real estate, and eCommerce sectors. The website emphasizes transparent, fixed-price billing, quick delivery to meet deadlines, and ongoing support after launch. Their founding story—quality development at reasonable cost—remains central to their pitch.

Services and capabilities

Cre8ive Labs' service line splits into three main categories. On design, they offer graphic design, website design, UI/UX design, social media design, custom logo design, and branding work. They use Adobe Creative Suite, Sketch, Figma, and related tools. They can work within existing brand guidelines and provide ongoing design support on retainer or project basis.

On development, they build custom web applications, eCommerce sites (WooCommerce, OpenCart, Shopify), blog sites, and mobile apps (custom and web-based). They also handle website redesigns and provide application maintenance. Their process follows five steps: planning, design and development, testing, support, and ongoing maintenance.

Quality assurance is a third pillar. They run functional, regression, compatibility, and system testing. They also offer dedicated developer and designer placement, positioning it as an alternative to full hiring. The company mentions offering DevOps services on the homepage but provides no detail about what that entails.

How they work

Cre8ive Labs describes a four-stage approach: planning (understanding client goals and expectations), design and development (deploying a team of experts), testing (detecting and correcting bugs), and support (ongoing maintenance and help). For design work specifically, the process is consult, conceptualize, design, refine, and deliver.

They offer fixed-price projects, dedicated developer/designer placements, and retainer arrangements. The website emphasizes transparent billing with no hidden costs, regular client updates throughout work, and availability to answer questions. Project timelines are provided as part of the proposal, though no typical engagement length is specified. Pricing details are not published; clients must request a quote.

Notable work

The company showcases three projects in their portfolio: YumSum (an online food ordering platform), Parsoli Gym (a fitness center website), and Negi Fitness Club (a gym website for trainer Rohan Negi). Beyond these three examples, no client names, project outcomes, or measurable results are disclosed in the source material. Testimonials come from named individuals—Elijah Kim (Fate Lab CEO), Darren Edwards (Trail Hiking founder), Shailen Mehta (Astute Group CEO), Roger Peter (Company Kanoon founder), Noah Rafalko (TSG Global Inc CEO), and Nigel Morgan (Body Clinic owner)—but no specifics about those engagements are provided.

Team and credentials

The co-founders are Kunal Lodha (CEO) and Nidhi Lodha (co-founder). Named team members include Pritesh Bhatt (team leader), Akash Desani (full-stack developer), Riyazuddin Mansoori (business development executive), Priyanka Bhonsale (HR manager), and individual designers, WordPress developers, a content writer, and quality analyst. The exact headcount is unclear from the source, but the team appears to fall in the 11–50 range. No certifications (ISO 27001, SOC 2, GDPR compliance, etc.) are mentioned. No partner status with AWS, Microsoft, Google, or other platforms is disclosed. The company states it has seven years of experience, though the founding story dates to 2017, which would be closer to six or seven years ago depending on publication date.
