ESIPICK

Esipick is a software development agency founded in 2013 and based in Pakistan, though it primarily serves founders and visionaries across North America. The team is distributed and small by design—described as a "tribe" of engineers, designers, strategists, and domain experts rather than a body shop. They're selective about clients, explicitly declining high-volume hiring requests, commoditized work, and projects built purely for exit rather than impact. The company has a 5.0 rating on Clutch with independently verified reviews from founders they've worked with.

The agency positions itself around four core industry verticals where they've built deep expertise over the past decade. They don't work across every sector; they work where technology can demonstrably improve lives or protect value.

Services and capabilities

Esipick covers the full stack from validation to launch. They build custom web and mobile applications using React, React Native, and Node.js, with modern UI/UX design in Figma. They also integrate AI—not for hype, but where automation genuinely improves a product or workflow. Their process includes research and wireframing before code begins, product strategy work that challenges assumptions, and go-to-market support.

They describe their approach as "a mini version of McKinsey—but more hands-on and execution-driven." Projects are scoped upfront to avoid surprise scope creep. They use AI-assisted development to accelerate timelines without cutting quality. Their typical project spans 2 weeks for wireframe work to 12 months for enterprise platforms, though most MVPs ship in 4–6 weeks.

The four industry verticals are: Brand Protection & Consumer Engagement (traceability platforms, authentication systems, blockchain-based serialization), Social Impact & Sustainability (software for NGOs and mission-driven orgs), Productivity & Compliance (custom workflow tools for teams outgrown off-the-shelf software), and Product Development & Go-to-Market Strategy (idea validation through launch for founders). They also work in Art & Culture, building archives and interactive tools for artists and cultural institutions.

Notable work

ReGenesis is a 9–12 month engagement built on React, React Native, Figma, and blockchain. The platform aims to foster a resilient, transparent ecosystem across multiple industries. Matt Kaercher, the founder, said Esipick "felt like family, combining technical excellence with genuine care" and credited them as essential to where reGenesis stands today.

Shepherd App Design is a livestock management tool (track animal weight, daily milk yield, health and breeding records) built in 5–10 weeks with React and AI. ReadyHealth launched during COVID—a mobile and web platform connecting patients with doctors, enabling symptom sharing and prescription access, completed in 1–3 months with three people. Afforestt, a natural forest-building service, had their website rebuilt from scratch on a new platform ahead of a major media event; founder Shubhendu Sharma said Esipick "made our mission theirs." Bridge Africa is a platform to digitalize businesses and consumers across the continent. Todo Cloud is a habit-tracking app. GiftCardXP converts cold leads to warm ones through incentivized learning.

How they work

Esipick uses a fractional team model: they assemble the right experts (strategy, UX, development, sales/marketing support) for the specific phase and need, rather than assigning a static team. Each project begins with research and planning before design and development start. Timelines vary: MVP design and development typically takes 2–6 weeks, full-scale product development 1–3 months, and custom UX/UI projects 4–8 weeks. They openly acknowledge timelines vary by scope and that clarity on vision directly affects speed. They say they're a good fit for non-technical founders who can articulate the problem and why it matters; Esipick translates vision into product. They're explicitly not for companies seeking 50 developers tomorrow, the cheapest quote, or pure flip-motivated projects.

Team and credentials

Esipick was founded in 2013 by Umer Farooq Qureshi and Usama Ahmad. The team includes named engineers, designers, and strategists (Wali Ahmed, Ramsha Ali Khan, Arsalan Ali, Muhammad Sufian, Najeeb Khan, Ahsan Kamran, Sana Iqbal, Shafqat Naheed, Zulqur Nain), plus consultants Chris Keller, Matt Kaercher, Anthony Belasco, Josué Canas, and Maxine Moffett Lako. The company holds a 5.0 rating on Clutch based on verified client reviews. No team size is stated as a range, but project teams in the portfolio span 3–10 people depending on scope. They mention working across North America and beyond but are Pakistan-based.
