Forkflow

Forkflow is a software boutique based in Poland that builds custom web and mobile applications for startups and enterprises. The team describes itself as small and tightly-knit, though no specific headcount is published. They work across web development (React, Vue.js, Next.js), mobile development (iOS and Android via React Native), UI design, and staff augmentation. Notable clients include Vegan Food Club (Spain), The Vegan Kind Supermarket (UK), and DBR Software, as well as Holder, a fintech portfolio tracker for US-based users. The company offers flexible engagement terms and allows clients to exit arrangements without long-term lock-in.

Services and capabilities

Forkflow's core offering splits into four tracks. Web development focuses on custom applications using React, Next.js, Vue.js, and TypeScript, plus headless Shopify integrations and custom CMS work. They build e-commerce solutions using Shopify and Firebase. Mobile development covers both iOS and Android, primarily via React Native, with emphasis on cross-platform consistency and post-launch support.

UI/UX design is offered as a standalone service or integrated into larger projects. The company emphasizes user-focused design, intuitive navigation, and visual polish. Staff augmentation lets you hire individual developers from their roster on a time-and-materials basis, billed hourly. They claim 100% satisfaction guarantee on staff augmentation—if dissatisfied after the first week, no payment is due.

Development process follows a four-stage framework: discovery conversation, mockups and design iteration, development, and launch with testing and deployment. Project management uses Trello, Jira, or Asana. Communication happens via Slack, Microsoft Teams, or email. For ongoing work, they provide bug fixes, feature enhancements, security updates, and performance optimization as part of maintenance packages.

Notable work

Holder, a fintech portfolio tracker, lets users track investments across multiple holdings in one dashboard. Forkflow designed and built the mobile app for both iOS and Android.

The Vegan Kind Supermarket, the UK's largest online vegan grocer, had Forkflow design and code a headless Shopify web app. Vegan Food Club (Spain) similarly transitioned to a headless Shopify setup to enable custom checkout and subscription management. Both projects involved custom frontend work atop Shopify infrastructure.

A food delivery app design project (iOS and Android UI) was completed, though client name is not disclosed. The work involved interaction design and visual design across both platforms.

Clients have left testimonials noting speed of delivery and responsive communication. Lucas Gonzales-Guija (CMO, Vegan Food Club) highlighted "exceptional speed" and "fluid" communication. Dean Barker (CEO, DBR Software) emphasized "excellent communication" and timely delivery.

How they work

Engagement models include fixed-price, time-and-materials, and hourly billing. Forkflow offers a free consultation upfront to scope work and provide estimates. For web and mobile apps, timelines typically range from a few weeks to several months depending on complexity; mobile apps average 3–6 months. The company handles application migrations to new technology stacks and provides post-launch maintenance. Staff augmentation is billed on time-and-materials; you pay only for hours worked. They do not outsource staff augmentation roles—all developers are in-house—and promise quick onboarding to integrate new hires into existing teams.

Team and credentials

No founding year, team size, or formal certifications (ISO 27001, SOC 2, etc.) are mentioned on the website. The company does not list any major cloud partnerships (AWS, Microsoft, Google) or awards. Languages of communication are not explicitly stated beyond the web presence in English.
