Our Engineering Philosophy

At Freshworks, we take a unique approach to engineering and product development. We call it the Indian Democratic Design https://demdesign.in/ approach - built on the five pillars of Simplicity, Self-Reliance, Scalability, Craftsmanship and Affordability. 

Whether it is for SMB customers that require simple, affordable, easy-to-use products with a friendly user interface, or for larger enterprises that want a comprehensive platform to build solutions on top of, we craft and design simple products that are scalable, self-reliant, and affordable. 

Moreover, we’re not just building products but are creating an intelligent customer engagement platform that will enable businesses to engage with their customers through the entire lifecycle. The platform is built on our patented AI/ML platform called Freddy and provides intelligent solutions in customer support and customer relationship management.
