About us

We have been shaping the digital world for decades with our innovative solutions and professional dedication. Our reliable systems are an integral part of the daily operations of the largest national companies.

Our company first achieved national recognition for its electronic dictionaries and encyclopedias. We specialize in developing linguistic, semantic, and data quality assurance software, which we successfully implement in the fields of finance, logistics, and telecommunications. We work in our own office building, where we provide all our colleagues with comfortable and personalized workspaces. Our systems are used by a number of large companies, including the OTP Group, Hungarian Postal Service, and Hungarian Telekom Inc.

Our Strenghts

Expertise

Our lead developers have 25+ years of experience.

Business Analysis

If we do not understand something, we ask – we also perform business analysis tasks to facilitate effective communication between business and IT.

Legacy systems

We are up to date, but we are not afraid of legacy systems either, because we adapt well to older environments and solutions.

Modern tools

We create stable, well-maintainable systems. We use state-of-the-art technology and tools that are always up to date.

Our most commonly used technologies

Backend

JVM with
Java SE 11, 17 or 21 versions
(depending on requirement)
Spring Boot

Frontend

We have two main directions for web interfaces

In our legacy systems JSF environment with PrimeFaces toolkit.
In our new projects ReactJS environment with Primereact, Formik tools, and GraphQL based communication.

Databases

Oracle and PostgreSQL
(EnterpriseDB)

Data communication

E-mail, Kafka
REST/SOAP WebService
MQ, (S)FTP
