Softusvista - In News
After initial India-specific launches, we expanded our horizon to global markets, building products that solve universal, everyday problems in math, finance,
planning, mapping, and comparison. Over time that visibility matured: business media began treating our data and calculators as
reference material for real-world decisions like fuel budgeting, loan planning, and daily cost-of-living math. Today, our work shows
up in places we never pitched - Wikipedia cites our calculators, teachers link our visual learning tools in class assignments,
travel blogs use our distance engine to plan multi-country trips, and social communities recommend our tools as fast, reliable, and accessible.
