Prosigns

Prosigns is a senior-only AI and custom software development firm founded in 2018, headquartered in Dallas with regional operations in Doha and an engineering hub in Lahore. The company has 100 senior engineers (6+ years average, zero juniors on client work) organized across 16 specialized departments spanning eight practices. Most clients reduce manual workflow time by 30-60% in the first rollout phase of their AI deployments.

The firm positions itself explicitly for situations where "the cost of a bad system is greater than the cost of a senior team," according to founder and CEO Nayab Raheel. Prosigns serves startups through Series B, growth-stage teams scaling under pressure, and enterprises modernizing legacy systems. It holds ISO 27001:2013 and ISO 9001:2015 certifications, with SOC 2 Type II in progress. The company is a verified partner with AWS, Google Cloud, Microsoft, and Salesforce.

Services and capabilities

Prosigns organizes work into eight practices, each led by a department with budget authority and a senior lead who joins the first call. CORTEX (AI & Machine Learning) covers generative AI, RAG architectures, AI agents and automation, computer vision, predictive analytics, MLOps, intelligent automation, and n8n consulting. The firm emphasizes that "shipping AI is software engineering, not prompt engineering," and designs for evaluation harnesses, governance scaffolding, observability, and cost controls before writing the first prompt.

FORGE handles custom software: SaaS development, enterprise applications, legacy modernization (using strangler-fig patterns), APIs, integrations, and mobile apps. LAUNCHPAD provides product engineering from MVP through scale, with founder-friendly scoping and embedded pods. FOUNDATION and SKYWAY cover cloud architecture (AWS, Azure, GCP, multi-cloud), DevOps and SRE, cloud migration, and data engineering including warehouses, lakehouses, and BI. ATLAS specializes in enterprise platforms: Microsoft Dynamics 365, Salesforce, Power BI, ServiceNow, Shopify Plus, and ERPNext. MESH handles blockchain and Web3—smart contract development (Solidity, Vyper, Move), DeFi platforms, dApps, NFT standards, custody solutions, and enterprise chain integration. GUARDIAN and CITADEL provide QA, test automation, and security engineering including pen testing and secure SDLC. CANVAS rounds out the set with product design and design systems.

Engagements run on three models: dedicated teams (time & materials, quarterly+), fixed-price project delivery (SOW-driven with milestone gates), and managed services (monthly retainers with named SLAs). Minimum engagement size starts under $50K for advisory and discovery; most build engagements begin at $50K for startup MVPs, scaling to $5M+ for multi-quarter enterprise programs. A senior engineer and the relevant department lead respond to briefs within four business hours and join the first 30-minute call—no SDR gatekeeping.

Notable work

A US regional bank deployed real-time fraud detection on AWS (Kinesis, SageMaker, Python) in nine months, raising fraud catch rate by 37% while reducing false positives 42%. A healthcare SaaS for 240+ clinics launched a FHIR-aligned RAG platform with ePHI encryption and SOC 2-aligned audit logs in 11 months (Next.js, PostgreSQL, HL7/FHIR), delivering $4.2M in annualized labor savings. A logistics company achieved 12% fuel spend reduction through AI-driven route optimization combining predictive ETAs with reinforcement learning over six months (Python, Ray, GraphQL, GCP).

In retail, Prosigns replatformed a top-100 brand's monolithic Magento stack onto headless commerce with a read-model architecture in seven months, achieving 8x peak-traffic capacity, zero P0/P1 incidents at launch, and 47% median page load time reduction. A global manufacturer completed D365 F&O implementation across seven plants (North America and Europe) in 14 months with zero unplanned downtime, cutting month-end close time by 38%. A top-50 DeFi protocol redesigned collateral management and risk parameters after a near-miss exploit, completing three external audits and formal verification of critical invariants, then relaunched with $340M TVL under explicit value caps.

How they work

Prosigns engages in three paths based on company stage. Founders (pre-seed to Series B) get fixed-scope, fixed-price MVPs over 6-14 weeks at project-based cadence, aimed at shipping "production-grade, not a demo you have to rebuild." Growth-stage teams (Series B to pre-IPO) embed dedicated senior pods for multi-quarter rotations on time-and-materials terms to fill capability gaps without a hiring cycle. Enterprises (500-10,000+ employees) receive project-plus-managed-services models with board-level reporting, compliance-aware engineering for regulated industries, and SOC 2/ISO 27001/HIPAA-ready infrastructure.

Startup briefs route to a senior engineer plus department lead within four business hours. Most projects kick off within two to four weeks of contract signing. The firm maintains bench capacity across all eight practices, meaning no multi-quarter hiring lag. Every engineer on a client engagement has 6+ years experience; zero freelancers and zero subcontracting.
