Kivy Software

Kivy Software is a Warsaw-based software development firm founded around 2017 (the site references "6+ years of experience"). The team includes senior developers, frontend specialists, UX/UI designers, and support staff—roughly 11-15 people based on named team members and described structure. They build web and mobile applications, IoT solutions, and AI/ML systems for startups and established companies. Their pitch is direct: deliver on time, deliver honestly, deliver within budget.

The firm works in Agile and Lean methodologies. Clients receive early and continuous software delivery, weekly progress reports, full access to a project management system, and daily visibility into work via a test server. Communication comes via Slack, email, and phone. One client noted their app broke even in three months; another—a logistics firm—said the application reduced order acceptance time and routing complexity while employees reported it was intuitive to use. Kivy's Clutch rating is 4.8/5.0.

Services and capabilities

Kivy offers mobile apps (iOS/Android), web applications, IoT systems, and AI/ML work including neural networks, machine learning, NLP, and data science. They also handle UI/UX design and product design. On the technical side, they work with Python, React.js, Node.js, Docker, AWS, and CircleCI. Git and Bitbucket for version control, Jira for project management, Slack for communication.

They follow a seven-stage workflow: idea clarification, wireframing and tool selection, UI/UX design, backend development, QA testing, deployment, and ongoing maintenance. The firm emphasizes architecture—building "optimal software architecture" and high-quality code. One CTO from StayInFront Digital said Kivy "found many optimizations and a number of database queries, processing time, etc. They helped us significantly in making our service much faster and less resource-consuming." They also noted "deep knowledge of Django framework and Python."
