HikanovaAbout Us
Purposeful Wisdom, Opening a New Era
Hikanova (PT Hikarsa Nova Indonesia) is the holding company behind the software products we build. We aren't a product ourselves — we're the identity and foundation behind them.
Where the Name Comes From
The name Hikanova is built from two words: 'Hikmah', meaning wisdom or a hard-won lesson, and 'Karsa', meaning strong will or resolve. Together they're shortened to 'Hika', then combined with 'Nova' — Latin for 'new'. Taken as a whole, Hikanova means purposeful wisdom, opening a new era — a meaning we carry into every product we build.
Legal Identity
- Legal entity: PT Perorangan (sole micro-enterprise)
- Founded solo by our founder, Deska
- Business registration number (NIB) currently in progress via Indonesia's OSS system
- KBLI 62199 — Other Computer Programming Activities
Our Role
Hikanova is a brand umbrella, not a product you use day to day. Our job is to be the legal identity and parent brand behind every software product we build. You'll recognize our products by the format '[Product Name] by Hikanova'.
What We Believe
Simple over complicated
We choose to build solutions that are simple to use, even when the engineering behind them isn't.
Independent and deliberate
We build slowly, carefully, and with resolve — not chasing hype.
Open to grow
Our business classification doesn't box us into one product — Hikanova will keep growing to house new ones.
