Narrative highlights

Yarsa Labs

Yarsa Labs is where our ventures start. We build the systems—finance, HR, legal, infrastructure, and leadership—so product teams can focus on design, engineering, and customers.

Our mission is to make “Made in Nepal” a mark of quality and trust in technology: not as a slogan, but as something people experience in the apps they play, the devices they use, and the platforms they rely on for business.

Yarsa Games

Yarsa Games began in 2017 as a way to teach programming through shipping real games. Early hyper-casual experiments taught us what scales; we doubled down on Block Match, Mighty Survivor Force, the Nepal Driving License game, design, and live operations.

Yarsa Play

Yarsa Play is our game backend as a service: authentication, leaderboards, inventory, tasks, monetization, and live operations—so studios can ship multiplayer titles without standing up their own server stack.

Plug-and-play APIs, documentation for common languages, and a free tier for up to 10,000 players—built to lower the bar for developers who want to focus on gameplay, not infrastructure.

Yarsa Tech

Yarsa Tech is our answer to a harder problem: building consumer electronics in Nepal at serious scale. Based in Pokhara, we combine electronics R&D, PCB fabrication and assembly, product design, rapid prototyping, and mass manufacturing.

  • Electronics design & R&D
  • PCB fabrication & industrial SMT assembly
  • Product design, 3D printing & packaging
  • Mass manufacturing & quality control

Product lines (summary)

  • Nizi Power — backup power for routers and uninterrupted connectivity
  • NiziPOS — QR display for payments with real-time feedback
  • Nizi Scan — reliable scanning for common code formats
  • AudiQR — audio payment notifier for merchants
  • Nizi motor controller & light sensors — automation for homes and businesses

Yarsa Bazar

Yarsa Bazar is our B2B marketplace: we connect manufacturers and retailers so inventory, trust, and pricing move faster across Nepal.

It’s the commercial layer of our ecosystem—built for teams who already make or move physical goods, and need software that fits how Nepal actually does business.
