Projects where we solved real problems. Our flagship builds are live and publicly verifiable — visit them.
Multi-Location Ops Dashboard
Real-time analytics and operations platform for a multi-location retail business — reporting, inventory sync, and staff management consolidated into one system. Fixed-scope, full IP transfer at launch.

AI system that extracts, classifies, and routes operational documents for a logistics operator, replacing hours of manual data entry per day — every extraction traceable back to its source document.
ChaatPass — Loyalty Platform
10 US Tech's own pilot — an SMS loyalty platform purpose-built for South Asian and halal restaurants. Live at Karachi Chaat House in Chicago. The product, the merchant, and the dashboard are all publicly verifiable.
Quantum Prosthetics & Orthotics
A full website for a prosthetics & orthotics provider running 6 clinics across Illinois, Indiana, and Nevada — service and location pages, a HIPAA-aware consultation booking and intake flow, and an SEO-structured content build. Live and publicly verifiable; 10 US Tech is credited in the site footer.
Karachi Chaat House — Full Restaurant Platform
The complete digital stack for a high-volume Chicago restaurant: a custom-designed website with original food photography, online ordering with first-party delivery via Uber Direct, a self-serve ordering kiosk, a three-screen digital menu board fed live from Square POS, and ChaatPass loyalty woven through checkout. Hand-built Jamstack — no page builder, no template — with structured data on every dish page, a strict Content-Security-Policy, and field Core Web Vitals that pass with room to spare.

How we work.
Engineered for clarity. Built to ship on time, every time.
Discovery Call
Free 60-minute strategy session. We map your goals, tech stack, constraints, and success criteria. You receive a written project brief within 48 hours.
Proposal & SOW
Fixed-scope Statement of Work with clear deliverables, milestones, and pricing. No hourly billing surprises. Sign-off before a single line is written.
Build & Demo
Two-week sprints with live demos every Friday. You see real progress, give real feedback. Architecture and security locked in from sprint one. A typical build runs three sprints — six weeks; larger scopes extend the cadence, not the structure.
Launch & Handoff
Full deployment, QA sign-off, documentation, and IP transfer. 30-day post-launch support included. You own everything — code, infrastructure, data.
Ready to get started? First call is free — no pitch, no pressure.
Start a ProjectBuilt to be trusted.
Production-grade security and architecture baked into every project we ship.
Cloud Infrastructure
All production systems run on AWS with multi-availability zone redundancy. Auto-scaling, load balancing, and managed backups included by default — not as add-ons.
Data Encryption
AES-256 encryption at rest. TLS 1.3 in transit. Secrets managed via AWS Secrets Manager or equivalent vault. No plaintext credentials in codebase — ever.
CI/CD & Deployment
Automated testing pipelines on every commit. Zero-downtime deployments via blue/green or canary strategies — behind a verification gate that never publishes a failed build.
Compliance Framework
SOC 2 controls, HIPAA-aware data handling, and ISO 27001-aligned security policies applied from day one — not bolted on after the fact.
Monitoring & Alerting
Continuous uptime monitoring, anomaly detection, and automated alerting on every production system we operate.
Testing & QA
Unit, integration, and end-to-end test coverage on every delivery. Load testing before every major launch. No feature ships without a passing test suite.
Who we serve.
We work where we’ve shipped. Three verticals, each backed by live systems or delivered client work — see the case studies above.
Restaurant & Hospitality
Loyalty platforms, POS integrations, online ordering, and customer engagement tools purpose-built for food & beverage operators. Tested in a real restaurant — not a boardroom.
LIVE PILOT → CHAATPASSLogistics & Transportation
Fleet management, dispatch platforms, document processing automation, and real-time tracking systems that reduce manual work and improve operational accuracy.
AI · AUTOMATION · OPSHealthcare & Wellness
Secure patient management tools, appointment systems, and wellness apps built to compliance standards. Technology that improves care without adding complexity.
HIPAA-AWARE · SECUREThe team behind the work.
Founder-led. Operator-built.

Kiran R. Katwa is the founder and President of 10 US Tech Inc., a Chicago software engineering firm building production-grade systems for businesses of every size.
He works the way the best builders do: by running the businesses he builds for. The firm's flagship product, ChaatPass, was developed inside Karachi Chaat House in Chicago and now powers the restaurant's loyalty network, self-serve kiosk, online ordering, and payments — every line written, deployed, and operated under live conditions.
That hands-on operator perspective shapes every engagement at 10 US Tech: software designed by someone who has to live with the result, not just ship it.

The Perfect Handoff: How We Run AI Agents on Production Code — Without Handing Over the Keys
Two AI agents, one human, zero unsupervised deploys. The operating model we use to ship production software at agent speed — with a human holding every key.
Why Most Software Projects Fail — And What We Do Differently at 10 US Tech
70% of software projects go over budget or miss the mark entirely. After 10+ years in the industry, here's what we've learned about why projects fail — and the principles we use to make sure ours don't.
Building an On-Demand App in 14 Weeks: Lessons from a Real Delivery Sprint
A behind-the-scenes look at how we architected, built, and shipped a full iOS and Android marketplace in just 14 weeks — the trade-offs we made, the problems we hit, and how we solved them.
Straight answers.
The questions we hear before every engagement — answered the way we'd answer them across a table.
What does 10 US Tech actually build?
Hand-built, production web platforms: business sites, online ordering, loyalty programs, and digital signage systems — engineered end to end, from architecture and code through payments, data, and search visibility. No page builders, no templates.
How is 10 US Tech different from a typical web agency?
Most agencies hand off at launch. We build and operate. Every release ships through an automated verification gate, security headers are enforced on every deploy, and live state is verified after every change. One of our builds runs the complete digital stack for a high-volume Chicago restaurant — live, in production, every day.
How do you approach security?
Security comes first, as standing policy. Server-authoritative payment logic, strict content security policies, least-privilege data access, and credentials that never leave their vault. We audit our own builds against realistic attack scenarios before and after every release.
What does a project cost?
Every engagement is scoped individually. After a conversation about your goals and constraints, you receive a written proposal with clear deliverables before any work begins. We don't publish a rate card because scope — not hours — drives cost.
Do you optimize for AI search as well as Google?
Yes. Every build ships with complete structured data, machine-readable content, and compatibility with AI browsing agents — so your business is findable whether a customer asks Google, ChatGPT, or Claude.
Can you take over or fix an existing website?
Yes. We start with a live audit — performance, security headers, structured data, and indexation — and deliver findings ranked by severity with concrete fixes, before proposing any rebuild.
