Avra Software

Avra Software is a Polish software house founded in 2006 (operating for 17 years as of the source material) with 40+ IT specialists on staff. The company builds custom enterprise systems and integrations for mid-market and large clients across Poland, working across fintech, retail, logistics, and public services. One-third of Avra's team holds senior or architect roles. They maintain long-term partnerships—their longest engagement with MyBenefit spans 12 years—and claim over one million end users across their deployed systems, with a 5.0 client rating.

Services and capabilities

Avra's core offering splits into three streams. First, dedicated system development: they build from scratch or extend existing platforms to support business growth, as evidenced by their work on MyBenefit (a benefits management platform that scaled from a two-person startup to a 100+ person market leader) and PITax.pl (which processes 20+ million tax returns annually). Second, system integration using ESB (Enterprise Service Bus) architecture—specifically MuleSoft's Mule ESB—to automate data exchange and reduce manual processes. Their Leroy Merlin engagement automated warehouse inventory synchronization across 800+ product categories and multiple locations, eliminating daily manual script execution that had been creating errors and bottlenecks. Third, system maintenance and support: they provide 24/7 SLA-backed monitoring and bug fixes (Oferia.pl receives 16-hour daily coverage, 7 days a week; Leroy Merlin's integration work includes full 7/365 support).

On the technology side, Avra works with Java (Spring, Hibernate), PostgreSQL, MuleSoft Mule ESB, Orbeon Forms, Google Trusted Web Activity, and front-end frameworks unspecified in the source. For PITax.pl, they built a custom rules engine in Java that lets non-technical staff modify tax calculation logic without developer intervention—a design choice that reduced operational overhead. The team uses SCRUM methodology with 2-week sprints and includes business analysts, systems architects, backend and frontend developers.

Notable work

MyBenefit (Benefit Systems S.A.) began as a two-person startup in 2010 with an idea to digitize social benefit vouchers. Avra built the platform from zero, converting physical vouchers into an online system that eventually supported tourist, entertainment, and sports benefits. The application underwent two independent security audits (both passed), and growth was rapid enough that Benefit Systems—Poland's largest benefits player—acquired the company. Today, 700+ firms use MyBenefit, supported by 25+ developers across 4 Avra teams. The partnership has lasted 12 years.

Oferia.pl is a reverse-auction service for Leroy Merlin's handyman/contractor marketplace. Avra migrated the platform from previous infrastructure to Leroy Merlin's servers—a challenge complicated by incomplete documentation (prior system knowledge came only verbally). Despite this, they moved 300,000+ users with zero downtime and user-visible impact. Post-migration, they integrated the service with Leroy Merlin's loyalty system to expand B2B lead generation, and now maintain it under a strict SLA. Over 8 years, the platform has processed 1+ million job orders.

Leroy Merlin's inventory integration (separate from Oferia.pl) solved a workflow problem: store staff manually ran data-preparation scripts daily to sync stock levels across locations. Avra architected an ESB layer using Mule that automated this entirely, enabling real-time price and availability updates across all shops, faster checkout, and omnichannel buy-online-pickup-in-store capability. The middleware also reduced server footprint by buffering data and handling peaks during high-traffic periods.

PITax.pl is Poland's most-used tax filing platform, processing 20+ million personal income tax returns. Avra built it across three formats (desktop, web, mobile) with banking-grade security. Using Java/Spring/Hibernate and PostgreSQL, they engineered it to handle March–April traffic surges without over-provisioning infrastructure. Their custom rules engine lets PITax.pl staff push tax law updates live without code changes. The Android app reached 4.96/5 stars (600+ reviews) and hit 20,000+ downloads in five months. They deployed the entire mobile version in two weeks using Google Trusted Web Activity.

How they work

Engagements follow a four-stage process: (1) Initial consultation with an analyst and tech lead to surface problems and goals; (2) Analysis of collected data, technology verification, preliminary feature list, rough budget and timeline; (3) Business workshops to deepen domain knowledge and lock down initial task list and delivery milestones; (4) Development in 2-week SCRUM sprints with continuous course correction at business and technical levels. Avra does not disclose pricing on the website, but long-term relationships dominate their portfolio (12 years with MyBenefit, 8 years with Oferia.pl/Leroy Merlin). They scale teams by project—MyBenefit's engagement involved 4 Avra teams with 25+ developers.
