Codino

Codino is a Warsaw-based software development shop with 30+ engineers working across mobile, web, cloud, and data engineering projects. Founded in Poland, the company has delivered solutions for over 40 clients across streaming, fintech, marketplaces, and retail. The firm spans custom application development, AI-powered systems, data engineering, and legacy modernization—with a stated ability to deliver projects ranging from a few months to 1-2 years depending on scope.

The company pitches a full-cycle engagement: discovery workshops to identify opportunities, planning and architecture reviews, implementation with staff training, and ongoing support. Most visible in their case work are outcomes like 90% fraud reduction for an anti-fraud platform, 1.6x revenue increase for a video recommendation engine, 12x ROAS lift for a retail BI platform, and a risk-management tool that cut airline analysis time from four hours to three minutes. They name Recast (streaming), ZipZero (fintech), and Nextbike (bike rental) as clients.

Services and capabilities

Codino's core service stack breaks into a few clusters. AI work covers consulting (model selection, strategy), development (MVP building, model tuning, integration), and industry-specific solutions in manufacturing, retail, ecommerce, and marketing. They run two-day Gen AI workshops that output a strategy document and working prototype, then offer proof-of-concept delivery in 1-2 weeks.

Data engineering and analytics form a second pillar. They handle data preparation (cleaning, consolidation from multiple sources), architecture and modeling, data warehousing and lakes, ETL/ELT pipeline design, and real-time data loading. They've built BI platforms for retail, risk-management dashboards for airlines, and demand-forecasting systems. One case study notes a BI platform that delivered up to 32x return on ad spend for retailers; another airline tool cut reporting time from an afternoon to three minutes.

Data visualization is third: custom dashboards, modernization of legacy platforms, and ongoing maintenance. They emphasize translating spreadsheets into interactive visual reports and KPI tracking. One bike-rental client moved from spreadsheets to a tailored analytics platform and reduced empty station reports by 10x.

Beyond those, they offer MVP development (described as "rapid"), custom application development with their stated tech stack, application modernization (legacy system upgrades), IT consulting and strategy (free audit offered), and dedicated team placements.

On the technology side, they work with Java, Kotlin, TypeScript, Node.js, and Python for backend work. React and React Native appear for front-end and mobile; Angular and Next.js also listed. For data and ML they use PyTorch, Kafka for streaming, and Kubernetes for orchestration. Database choices include PostgreSQL, MongoDB, and Snowflake. AWS is their cloud platform of choice. They do not list Microsoft Azure or Google Cloud in their material.

Notable work

Recast (streaming platform): Codino built infrastructure enabling per-view creator payments rather than subscription-based revenue. VP of Product Pete Willcox noted team members "fit seamlessly into delivery teams."

ZipZero (fintech): A platform for collecting and paying household bills via purchase rewards, using AI to scan receipts and recognize products. CTO Marcin Walaszczyk highlighted the leadership expertise and team integration.

Nextbike (bike rental): Codino developed an analytics platform for Poland's largest bike-sharing operator. The platform identified occupancy issues early, reducing empty stations by 10x through data visualization. CTO Peter Holc praised best practices in code quality and architecture.

Anti-fraud solution (unnamed client): A machine learning system for detecting fraudulent transactions replaced manual processes, achieving 90% fraud reduction by analyzing transaction patterns and anomalies.

Video platform recommendation engine (unnamed client): A machine learning system analyzed user behavior and viewing history, delivering 1.6x revenue increase.

Retail BI platform (unnamed client): Served multiple retailers with transactional data analysis and AI-based predictions, lifting return on ad spend up to 32x in some cases; system achieved 12x average ROAS increase across portfolio.

Airline risk-management tool (unnamed client): Automated risk detection from large datasets, compressing analysis time from four hours to three minutes.

How they work

Codino offers three engagement models: Dedicated Team (long-term, time-based pricing), Time and Material (developers at set hourly/daily fee, final cost driven by person-hours), and Fixed-Price (scope-bound contract). Pricing starts at €15,000 for small business custom software, €80,000–€200,000 for mid-sized companies, with enterprise costs higher. Project timelines range from a few months to 1-2 years depending on requirements and integrations.

Their discovery process involves workshops, brainstorming, and interviews to clarify business goals. They then propose technical solutions, move to implementation with testing and training, and provide ongoing monitoring and support. For AI specifically, they run a two-day business workshop (strategy and ROI), a one-to-two-day technology workshop (tech stack and POC design), and a one-to-two-week proof-of-concept phase delivering a report and working prototype.

Team and credentials

Codino has 30+ technology experts. The source does not name founders or provide exact team breakdowns by role. No certifications (ISO 27001, SOC 2, GDPR, HIPAA compliance) are mentioned. They do not list partner badges (AWS Advanced Partner, etc.). Testimonials are from CTOs and product leaders at Recast, ZipZero, Nextbike Polska, Pathship, Alpaqa Studio, Illumie, MAM, and Axisrooms. The company references Clutch reviews from independent researchers conducting phone interviews with clients, but does not provide a Clutch profile rating or review count in the source material.
