Kalamade
We make ads that people don’t skip.
Most app ads are noise. They interrupt. They annoy. They get skipped.
The best ads don’t feel like ads. They feel like a moment — humor, recognition, surprise — that happens to be about a product.
We make the kind of creative people choose to watch. Something that earns attention instead of stealing it.
Kalamade is a creative studio for app growth. We make the work that stops thumbs, holds attention, and moves people to take action. The ads that drive millions of installs — that’s our work.
We do this across languages and cultures, because the best creative isn’t translated — it’s born native. What works in Malayalam doesn’t work in Hindi. What stops a scroll in Bangla won’t even register in Telugu. We build for each, from scratch.
We’re based in Kochi, Kerala. Our team works across India.
Small team. Big reach. We like it that way — close enough to the work that nothing ships without someone caring about it.
Beyond our core team, we work closely with freelancers and collaborators across India — trusted people who care about the work as much as we do.
Last week, our ads were watched 0 million times.
This week, we’re making better ones.
We’re hiring.
Kalamade is building its founding team. We’re looking for people who make things — not people who manage things about making things.
If you’re a copywriter who thinks in a language other than English, a motion editor who can’t stop tweaking a cut, a strategist who reads performance data like a story, or someone who just makes things better by being in the room — we’d like to talk.
We’re open to freelancers, full-time roles, and interns. What matters more than your title is whether you’ve made something you’re proud of.
