About TechknockLabs

A senior engineering team for software and AI.

Since 2021, TechknockLabs has helped startups and growing businesses in the UK, US and Middle East design, build and run software products and AI systems, with senior engineers on every project instead of a rotating bench.

Our story

Why we started TechknockLabs

TechknockLabs started in 2021, when our founder and CEO, Ahmed Khan, saw too many businesses paying for software that was rushed, handed to junior developers, and rebuilt a year later.

We set out to build the opposite: a small, senior team that treats every client's product like its own. We scope honestly, show working software every week, and stay accountable long after launch.

Today we're a team of 25 engineers, designers and product people. We've delivered 138+ projects across SaaS, web, mobile, enterprise systems and AI, from first MVPs to platforms used by 2.5M+ users.

Ahmed Khan

Founder & CEO

8+ years building software and AI for multiple industries. Leads every client engagement from scoping to delivery.

“Most clients come to us after a bad experience with an agency or freelancer. My promise is simple: you'll always speak to a senior engineer, you'll see progress every week, and you'll get honest advice, even when that means building less.”
