Founder & CEO
Parvessh Agarwal
An entrepreneur at heart who connects business analysis, strategy, clear objectives and ROI with practical technology solutions.
Since 2004,
one senior team.
Most agencies bolt disciplines together with subcontractors. Ours has been under one roof since 2004: design and development first, marketing alongside for most of that time, AI as the newest practice. Senior teams, working under agency brands (500+ agencies served) and directly for brands that want one roadmap instead of four vendors.

How we're built
Four disciplines.
One roof.
Each practice is senior in its own right: the difference is what happens when they stop being four vendors with four roadmaps and start being one team with one.
01MarketingSEO and AI-search visibility, paid media, content and lifecycle, run on one roadmap and reported weekly against revenue.02DevelopmentCommerce builds, web platforms, migrations and performance work, reviewed, documented and handed over properly.03DesignProduct UI, marketing sites and brand systems, designed and built by the same organisation, so what ships is what was designed.04AIChatbots grounded in your knowledge base, workflow automation and personalisation: deployed systems, not demos.05White-label deliveryThe discipline behind the disciplines: your brand on the work, NDA-backed, with client-protection terms agreed before work begins.06How we workWe typically respond within four business hours. You know who coordinates your engagement, who owns the work and how to escalate an issue.
Senior-led, in writing.
No bait-and-switch between the pitch and the delivery: the people who scope your work stay accountable for it, and we do not approach the clients a partner introduces to us for direct business: that protection runs through the work and for twelve months after the last assignment for that client ends, and it is written into the agreement. You meet the team on a call before anything is signed.

Where it started
We learned to be invisible
before we learned to be known.
We learned to be invisible before we learned to be known. PixelCrayons started in 2004 as a small design boutique on open bidding platforms. Nobody knows your name there. Every job goes to whoever shows they can do it, then shows it again the following week. The work mattered more than the name on it, and it still does.
Agencies noticed before brands did. One-off projects became sustained white-label relationships: design-to-theme work at volume under their brands, with hundreds of marketing engagements alongside. For a while the affordable theming tier ran under its own name, MarkupBox, until buyers asked who could own the whole outcome and it folded back in. Delivering work someone else signs since 2004 is why the white-label side runs as it does: client-protection terms agreed before work begins, working inside a partner's tools, reporting an agency can present unedited. Today the same team also works directly for brands.
The marketing side has run alongside the build work for most of the company's life; leading with it now is a choice about emphasis, not a change of direction.

Our commitments
Each one says where it applies and links to its full terms.
Response and start times
We typically respond within four business hours. Eligible engagements can typically start within two to three business days after scope, payment and required access are confirmed.
Business hours are Monday to Friday, 9:00 am to 6:00 pm IST, excluding published company holidays. Typical expectations, not guaranteed service levels.
Full terms30-Day Corrective Maintenance
Applicable development work includes 30 days of corrective maintenance after production launch.
Development engagements only; not marketing services or retainers.
Full termsClear IP & Ownership Terms
Your materials remain yours. Bespoke deliverable rights, licences and handover are agreed before work starts.
All engagements.
Full termsClear Delivery & Escalation Ownership
Know who coordinates your engagement, who owns the work and how to escalate an issue.
All engagements. Roles may be combined and vary with your engagement.
Full terms14-Day Risk-Free Trial
For eligible managed specialists. Up to 14 calendar days or 80 logged working hours, whichever comes first. End within the trial and pay nothing for eligible trial hours. Continue beyond it and those hours are billed at the agreed rate. Unpaid trial work remains ours if you stop.
Eligible managed-specialist roles only, one trial per customer. Not offered for AI, chatbot, prompt, automation, API-integration or QA work. Brand and graphic designers, brand strategists, video editors, content writers, copywriters and content marketers start with a paid pilot.
Full termsTime-zone overlap
At least four hours a day inside your core working hours. Two hours plus a daily written handover for the US West Coast.
Managed specialists only; not a staffing promise for project teams.
Full termsClient protection in writing
We deliver under your agency's brand and respect your client relationships. We do not approach the clients you introduce to us for direct business. Confidentiality and client-protection terms are agreed before work begins.
Agency engagements. Protection runs through the work and for twelve months after the last assignment for that client ends.
Full termsWill my clients find out that you did the work?
We deliver under your agency's brand and respect your client relationships. Confidentiality and client-protection terms are agreed before work begins, and we do not publish named case studies about your clients. We use your agency's own name, logo or testimonial only with your prior approval.
Will you go around us to my client?
We do not approach the clients you introduce to us for direct business. That protection runs through the work and for twelve months after the last assignment for that client ends, and it is written into the agreement. If one of your clients contacts us directly, we tell you and resolve the enquiry through you.
How does time-zone overlap work?
Your engineers work at least four hours a day inside your core working hours. We set the window with you before the engagement starts and hold it for as long as the engagement runs. For the US West Coast the live overlap is two hours each morning, with a written handover at the end of every Indian day. We do not run night shifts: engineers who work nights leave quickly, and keeping the same people on your team matters more to us than a longer overlap.
How quickly can you respond and start?
We typically respond within four business hours, Monday to Friday, 9:00 am to 6:00 pm IST, excluding published holidays. Eligible engagements can typically start within two to three business days after scope, payment and required access are confirmed. We confirm a proposal date once we have a sufficiently complete brief.
Why pay you rather than a local agency?
We quote each engagement in a written proposal, and the initial consultation, standard proposal and straightforward scoping are free. The proposal states the deliverables, exclusions, fees and currency, payment milestones and any third-party costs, so you can compare it line by line with a local quote. You can buy one service or several, and keep the providers you already have.
What if we want to stop?
Cancellation, notice and any renewal terms are written into your proposal or statement of work before you accept it. If an engagement ends early, we hand over completed, paid-for work and list any unfinished work separately. For an eligible specialist trial, you can stop within the trial window and pay nothing for eligible trial hours.
How we handle claims, credentials and your data: group credentials, dated ratings, how case figures are signed off, client permissions and data handling.
Questions
Frequently
asked.
Headquartered in Noida, India, serving clients across North America, Europe, the Middle East and APAC. You know who coordinates your engagement, who owns the work and how to escalate an issue.
Senior-led, and we're happy to be held to it. Every engagement is run by a senior team, and the people who scope your work in the proposal stay accountable for delivering it. What we don't do is the industry's quiet bait-and-switch: senior faces in the pitch, juniors on the account.
Yes, on calls, before anything is signed. Agency partners meet their dedicated team before any client brief goes near it. That's exactly how we'd want it if the roles were reversed: you're putting your brand on our work.
Since 2004: continuous delivery, 4,500+ projects delivered, and every platform shift from early CMSs to AI search. Longevity isn't the argument by itself, but it does mean the team you hire has seen your problem before.
