Kikbits

Kikbits is a software development shop based in Islamabad, Pakistan, founded and led by Bilal Asif (CEO/CTO) and Azza Shahid (CMO). The company builds web applications, mobile apps, Chrome extensions, and machine learning solutions for startups and established e-commerce businesses. Their public portfolio includes work on Dropified (a Shopify automation platform), Coupon Follow/Cently (a coupon browser extension), SalesSource (dropshipping tools), and AliExtractor. Client testimonials highlight fast delivery—several projects completed in three weeks—and strong communication through development cycles.

Services and capabilities

Kikbits offers custom web and mobile application development, browser extension engineering, and machine learning work. They handle full-stack projects from wireframing and architecture through deployment and monitoring. The company has shipped Chrome extensions at scale; for Coupon Follow, they designed a solution to integrate new retailers such that 80% of integrations required no code adjustments, and built ArriveJS (an open-source JavaScript library for DOM change detection at runtime). For Dropified, they architected automated order fulfillment processes, product data scraping from suppliers like AliExpress and eBay, and dynamic pricing systems.

They follow Agile methodology with daily standups, sprint-based task management, and retrospectives. Development is staged: analysis and design thinking, UI/UX design, front-end and back-end development in parallel, then testing, QA, and deployment. They offer incremental delivery—MVP followed by numbered increments and feedback loops—and provide monitoring and error handling post-launch.

Notable work

Dropified automates dropshipping operations by pulling product data from AliExpress, Amazon, eBay, and Etsy, then syncing to Shopify and WooCommerce. Kikbits developed core features including order fulfillment automation and pricing tiers. Founder Chase Bower (Dropified) called Bilal "an amazing asset" with "a wealth of talent, intelligence, and experience."

Cently (Coupon Follow) is a Chrome extension that auto-applies coupons at checkout across thousands of e-commerce stores and feeds cashback rewards. The extension has been featured on Lifehacker, Mashable, VentureBeat, and CNET. Kikbits' key contribution was solving the retailer integration problem—by abstracting coupon detection logic into a reusable JavaScript library, they reduced integration work from full custom code to mostly configuration. SalesSource, another dropshipping tool, was completed in three weeks per client testimony.

How they work

Engagements start with detailed requirement-gathering calls via video conference and screen sharing, producing a validated high-level document. Kikbits then proposes a solution: tech stack, third-party APIs, frameworks, and a project roadmap with features, milestones, and pricing. They offer two pricing structures: fixed-price for defined scope, or full-time resource engagement for ongoing work. Development happens in Agile sprints with daily standups. QA runs continuously as tasks move from to-do to under-review. Clients get transparency throughout—Kikbits has been noted for responsive communication and progress visibility. Deployment follows to app stores, cloud, or web, with ongoing monitoring and regular builds as new features ship.
