Ten years building products. Now we build leverage.
We started as a 0-to-1 design and development agency. We built products from scratch for ambitious founders. As AI evolved, we saw a massive gap in the market, and we turned toward it.
Ten years, three chapters
Founded as a design agency
Sketchli began in Melbourne as a 0-to-1 design and development agency, building products from scratch for ambitious founders.
100+ products, built for agencies
We evolved into a sub-contracting design and development provider to leading agencies across Australia, helping take 100+ ideas from concept to market-ready product.
Pivoted to founders and SMEs
As AI evolved, we saw a massive gap in the market. We pivoted to serve Australian SMEs and founders directly, helping them become smarter with AI.
Enterprise-grade problems, at a fraction of the cost
Australian SMEs were drowning in manual processes. They were paying full-time salaries just to have staff copy-paste data between emails, spreadsheets and legacy systems.
We realised our rapid 0-to-1 prototyping skills, combined with modern AI capabilities, could solve these enterprise-grade problems at a fraction of the cost and time.
Who we're built for
You have an idea and no technical co-founder
You're a first-time founder with an idea that needs to move fast. We take you from concept to a market-ready product, the same way we've taken 100+ ideas to market since 2015.
Reality-check my idea, freeSME ownerYou're scaling fast but held back by manual work
You're an Australian SME scaling fast but constrained by operational bottlenecks — across field services, SaaS, manufacturing, professional services, wellness and retail. If growth is outrunning your processes, we're built for you.

Results, not decks
No slide decks, no six-month strategy phases. We show you working product.
Design, build, launch, optimise
One team carries the work end to end, rather than handing off between specialists.
We stay through product-market fit
We don't disappear at delivery. We stay until the numbers move.
Weeks, not months
AI-assisted development compresses agency timelines from months into weeks.
You own 100% of the code and IP
Every line of code and every asset transfers to you. No lock-in.
Monthly retainers, not fixed fees
We stay invested in the outcome instead of chasing a one-off project fee.
The numbers so far
Operational leverage for every Australian SME
Every Australian small and medium business deserves access to the kind of intelligent automation and custom software once reserved for companies with million-dollar IT budgets.
A future where the owner of a $10M field services company has the same operational leverage as a Fortune 500 enterprise. Where repetitive admin is handled by AI. Where decisions are driven by real-time data instead of gut feel. Where every growing business can scale without proportionally scaling headcount or stress.
We're building toward becoming Australia's most trusted AI transformation partner for SMEs — not by chasing the biggest contracts, but by delivering the most meaningful outcomes.
When our clients win, we win. That's the only metric that matters.
From the founder
I started Sketchli in 2015 building products for other agencies. For ten years I watched good ideas die in six-month timelines and $500K quotes. AI changed what a small senior team can do, so in 2025 we turned Sketchli toward the people who need that most: first-time founders and growing Australian businesses. Every enquiry comes to me. If we're not the right fit, I'll tell you.
Questions about Sketchli
Who founded Sketchli?
Sketchli was founded by Vish Prasad in 2015. It began as a 0-to-1 design and development agency and has since evolved into an AI-native transformation partner for Australian SMEs.
Where is Sketchli based?
Sketchli is based in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia (470 St Kilda Rd, Melbourne VIC 3004). We serve clients Australia-wide across all states and territories.
What size businesses does Sketchli work with?
We work with two kinds of clients: first-time founders with an idea that needs to move fast, and Australian SMEs that are scaling quickly but constrained by manual processes or outdated tools. Clients span field services, SaaS, manufacturing, professional services, wellness and retail.
How long has Sketchli been operating?
Sketchli has been operating since 2015 — over 10 years. During that time we have helped design and develop more than 100 products, initially as a design and development agency and more recently as an AI transformation partner.
What makes Sketchli different from a traditional digital agency?
Unlike traditional agencies that quote 6–12 month timelines and million-dollar budgets, Sketchli uses AI-assisted development to deliver results in weeks, not months, at a fraction of the cost. We also don't just advise — we design, build, launch, and optimise, staying through product-market fit rather than handing over at delivery.
How quickly will Sketchli respond to my enquiry?
Vish Prasad personally responds to all enquiries within 1 business day. We do not use automated response sequences — you will hear from a real person.
