Software for Australian companies, built while your afternoon runs
Srinagar starts work around lunchtime on the east coast, so our day overlaps your afternoon and carries on into your evening. We build custom software, mobile apps and AI features for Australian businesses, with cross-border privacy handled in the plan.
Codemites is headquartered in Srinagar, India, with a second office in Mississauga, Canada. We have no office in Australia; we work with clients here remotely. Our India working day lines up with the Australian afternoon.
Australian businesses tend to come to us for one of two reasons: local development quotes that would use up a year's budget, or a product that needs a larger team than they can hire. In both cases, the time difference turns out smaller than expected. Our working day overlaps the second half of yours, so a call after lunch reaches the whole team.
The question to settle early is privacy. Disclosing personal information to an overseas recipient puts obligations on you under the Australian Privacy Principles, so we agree in writing how we handle your data and, where it makes sense, keep it on Australian servers.
Our day is your afternoon
Sydney daylight saving moves the overlap an hour. Queensland does not change its clocks, so Brisbane stays on one schedule all year.
4 hr 30 min
of your 8-hour day overlaps with at least one of our offices (3 hr 30 min in the other half of the year, when clocks change).

Australian rules we plan around
These affect what we build and the paperwork you get with it.
APP 8: cross-border disclosure
Before disclosing personal information overseas, you must take reasonable steps to make sure the recipient does not breach the Australian Privacy Principles, and you stay accountable for what they do. We sign contract terms that set out how we handle and protect that data.

The Australian Signals Directorate's baseline of eight mitigation strategies, from patching and multi-factor authentication to backups. Government buyers expect it, and it is a sensible baseline for everyone else. We build and document against it.

Questions Australian businesses ask
What hours do you work in Australian time?
Our Srinagar office works 9 am to 7 pm India time. That is roughly 2:30 pm to 12:30 am in Sydney during standard time, and an hour later during daylight saving. Calls work best between 2:30 and 6 pm Sydney time.
Can our data stay in Australia?
Yes. AWS and Google Cloud both have Sydney and Melbourne regions. We can host your application and data there, and set up our access so personal information is not copied offshore.
Will you meet the Essential Eight?
We build systems against the Essential Eight strategies that apply to software we deliver, such as multi-factor authentication, patching and backups, and we document them. Your overall maturity level also depends on your own devices and processes.
Do you work with Australian startups?
Yes. Early-stage teams usually start with a fixed-scope first version, then move to an ongoing contract once the product has users.
