Arbisoft helped build the client's beta product, continued development on the shared codebase and ticketing system, and documented API specifications while restricting production and PII access to a small internal group and DevOps.

Project Outcome

Arbisoft became an integral part of the client's team and contributed to the company's continued existence.
Long-term engagement with team members staying 5–8 years fostered a trusted relationship.
Established agile collaboration and tooling (daily stand-ups, sprint retrospectives, Jira/Pivotal Tracker, Confluence) that improved project management and documentation.
