What we are for

Software where a wrong answer costs somebody

Payroll is where software gets found out. GOSI, GPSSA, QPEN and EOBI each have their own rules, UAE salaries go out through WPS bank files, and a payslip has to read correctly in Arabic as well as English.

A marketplace is found out differently: a stranger is about to be sent to somebody's home, and the app has to be sure who they are. Between them, our two products cover most of what a business needs from software — keep records straight, move money correctly, know who people are, and work on the phone in someone's hand.

How we work

Four habits behind both products

Decisions are written down

Nova HRM's design rests on 53 architecture decision records. When we choose something, the reason is kept beside the code, so it can be questioned later rather than guessed at.

Prototyped before it is built

iConnect began as clickable prototypes of every screen, customer, tradesman and admin, including the states a demo usually hides: a refused permission, an offer expiring on the road, a wallet in debt.

Tested against the real thing

Both products' test suites run against a real MySQL database, because distance matching and money are exactly what a stand-in database gets quietly wrong.

Quick, without cutting corners

iConnect went from its first written plan to Google Play in under three weeks: planned on 19 September 2026, released on 8 October.

Where we are

Registered in Pakistan, working with the Gulf

Nova Technologies and Business Solutions (Private) Limited is registered in Pakistan. Nova HRM is sold to companies in Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Qatar and Pakistan, and iConnect runs in Islamabad and Rawalpindi.
