Nine years.500+ apps.One mission: help founders ship.
Make An App Like is a clone-app development studio — and a tech news + blogging platform — built for founders who refuse to spend nine months and $150k on what we can ship in 7 days for a fraction of the price.

I started building software in 2016 because every founder I met had the same problem — a great idea, a tiny budget, and 8 months they didn't have. So we built clones. Fast. Cheap. Production-ready.
Nine years later, the team has shipped 500+ apps for founders in 40+ countries — ride-hailing in Africa, fintech in Southeast Asia, dating apps in Europe, AI-companion apps in the US. The model is the same: a brilliant idea + our pre-built engineering rails = launch in days, not months.
Today Make An App Like is two things at once: a catalogue you can buy from, and a publishing platform we run for the founder community. Both pull in the same direction — get more software shipped, more cheaply, with fewer surprises.
From a one-room office in 2016 to 500+ apps in 2026
Nine years of shipping. Here are the milestones that got us here — and the inflection points that changed how we work.
- 2016
Triple Minds founded
Ashish starts the company in a one-room office. First client: a Mumbai-based grocery delivery startup. First clone shipped in 14 days.
- 2017
First 50 clone apps
Ride-hailing, food delivery, and on-demand services dominate the early catalogue. Word-of-mouth referrals hit critical mass.
- 2019
100+ clients shipped
Crossed 100 white-label deliveries. Team grows to 18 engineers. First international clients (UAE, UK, Nigeria).
- 2021
Make An App Like directory launches
Public catalogue of pre-built clones goes live. Buyers can pick, pay, and rebrand without a single sales call.
- 2023
7-day SLA + AI rebuilds
AI-assisted rebuilds collapse delivery times. We commit publicly: any clone in the catalogue, custom-rebuilt in 7 days flat.
- 2024
Tech news + blog platform live
Make An App Like becomes a dual platform — clone marketplace + AI-curated, editor-reviewed tech news for founders.
- 2026
500+ apps · 50k+ founders
Half a thousand apps shipped across 40 countries. Tech blog reaches 50k monthly readers. The flywheel is turning.
A clone-app studio. And a tech newsroom.
We help founders ship in two ways — by building the app for them, and by writing the playbooks that help them figure out what to build next.
Why founders hire us — and keep coming back
We have been doing this for nearly a decade. These are the promises we keep on every build — the kind of things other shops dance around in fine print.
500+ apps shipped
Nine years of clone engineering — most teams haven't shipped a tenth of that.
7-day delivery SLA
Public commitment. Refund the deposit if we miss the deadline by more than 48 hours.
100% source ownership
Perpetual commercial licence. Private git repo. No per-install fee, no SaaS lock-in.
7-day money-back
If the build doesn't match the demo, full refund. No questions, no fine print.
40+ countries served
Founders in the US, UK, UAE, Singapore, Nigeria, India, Brazil — and counting.

Real quotes from founders we've shipped for
“Agencies quoted $110k. The Make An App Like clone cost $6,400 and we were live in 11 days. Same payments, same maps, same chat.”
“The ride-hailing code was already in production for two operators in different countries. Bugs we feared had been fixed two years before we even signed.”
“They promised 7 days. They delivered in 6. The rebrand checklist was thorough — App Store accepted us on the first review with zero rejections.”
“What sold me wasn't the price. The demo admin panel actually worked — I clicked through every CRUD before paying. Nothing was half-finished. Rare.”
“They rebuilt our marketplace front-end in Next.js. Core Web Vitals jumped from 38 to 92 in one sprint. The team's engineering culture genuinely shows.”
“Deep HIPAA expertise. Working FHIR pipeline in 4 weeks. Audit trail and RBAC were rock-solid from day one. They knew the space cold.”
