About
When you work with QutriLabs, you talk to the people who are building your software. No handovers, no account managers, no jargon. Just three of us, and a real interest in how your business runs.
Our story
Two of us met in junior college. The third joined at university, and somewhere between lectures and late nights the three of us started building things together. Our first build together was a website for Sentosa Kopi, a local coffee company. Working on it, we realised this should be something real and serious, not just a side project, so we built QutriLabs around it. We give it the same care we’d give yours.
Along the way we noticed something. The business owners around us (the shops, cafés and family firms we grew up with) were running on spreadsheets, chat groups and sheer memory. Good software felt like something only big companies could have. We didn’t think that was right, so we started QutriLabs to change it.
The name comes from the qutrit, a unit of quantum information with three states. One for each of us.
The team
We each bring something different, and we all pick up the phone.
Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operations Officer
Arifuddin cares about how things are built and about the people who rely on them. With a Diploma in Mechanical Engineering and a Bachelor's in Computer Science (AI and Machine Learning), he has built websites and backend systems for local companies. He looks after day to day operations, loves building systems, and enjoys helping clients find their place in the digital world.
Chief Technology Officer and Data Protection Officer
Manish builds and deploys the software, and is the person to ask for technical help, questions and anything involving your data. He is studying Computer Science with the University of London and builds software for clients: web apps, Discord bots and automations. He started SettleNotes (opens in a new tab) and works as an engineer on MyRideSG (opens in a new tab), which is separate from QutriLabs. He will tell you honestly what you need and what you don't.
Chief Financial Officer
Swarup oversees the company's direction and major decisions, and takes direct responsibility for its finances: budgeting, invoicing, tax and financial admin. He is an Electrical and Electronic Engineering student at Nanyang Technological University who enjoys debugging, finding root causes and practical fixes. He likes exploring different approaches that improve efficiency and cut unnecessary cost, and he will be straight with you about what you need, what you don't, and what it will actually cost.
Our mission
If we can't explain it simply, we haven't understood it well enough.
The way we'd want it built if it were our own business.
Including when the answer is "you don't need this yet."
Launch day is the start of the relationship.
Engineering philosophy
01
We start from what your business needs to achieve, then choose the tools that fit.
02
Straightforward software is cheaper to run, easier to change and harder to break.
03
You see working software at every stage, so there are no surprises at the end.
Tell us what you are trying to fix or build. We will reply with clear next steps, in plain language, with no obligation.
