We replaced
the consulting firm.
Appnigma AI lets SaaS companies ship production-ready native apps inside Salesforce and HubSpot — without hiring a single platform engineer.
Our Story
One afternoon of idle clicking and the word Nigma showed up — a genus of spiders that build some of the most intricate webs in the natural world. Master connectors, creating strong, resilient links between points that otherwise have nothing to do with each other.
That's what we do. We build the connective tissue between your SaaS product and your customers' CRM — the intricate integrations that make your product work seamlessly inside the place your customers actually live all day.
So we took the word apart and put it back together.
App + Nigma = Appnigma.
Built by Salesforce engineers. Building for every CRM.
Sunny and AJ have been in the Salesforce ecosystem for 12 years combined.

partners worked with
Ex-Salesforce
AppExchange team
Sunny sat across the table from 300+ SaaS companies inside Salesforce's AppExchange team — and watched them fail security review over and over. So he built the thing that stops it. Before Salesforce, he was a Salesforce Developer at Zennify and ran Facebook's DevCircle community in Sacramento.

7yrs
shipping software
100%
hands on keyboard
AJ shipped production Salesforce solutions at Zennify and Banc of California — Apex, LWC, Flows, the full stack. He builds the native integrations that actually live inside Salesforce, not the ones pretending to. Seven years shipping software, still 100% hands on keyboard.
What makes us different
Your product lives inside the CRM — not in a separate tab someone has to remember to open.
Built from day one to pass each marketplace's security review — right structure, right namespace, first try.
Embedded workflows that sales, RevOps, and CX teams will actually keep using after launch.
Companies with native CRM integrations see up to 26% higher product adoption and 3× faster enterprise deal cycles compared to middleware-based alternatives.”
Our operating principles
Ship to the marketplace.
Anything less is a sandbox demo. We don't build middleware that lives next to the CRM — we build apps that live inside it and survive security review.
Hands on keyboard.
Every person here writes the thing they ship. No consulting layers, no proxies. AJ is still 100% hands on keyboard — so is everyone else.
Security review is the timeline.
If it can't pass review, we don't ship it. The marketplace listing is the bar, not a stretch goal.
The app is the product.
We don't sell promises about what could exist. We ship a native app your customers own, with code their team can read.
Replace the consultant, not augment them.
We're not a co-pilot for a 9-month engagement. We're the reason that engagement doesn't happen.
Move at SaaS speed.
CRM builds traditionally take quarters. We benchmark in days. If something on our side is slower than a sprint, it's broken.
Whiteboard to customers in a year
