Silk Software House

Silk Software House was founded in 2013 by a team with over 20 years of combined IT experience. Based in Poland, the company has grown to over 60 employees and has executed more than 600 projects across 10 countries on 4 continents. About 70% of their work comes from client referrals. They serve roughly 150 clients total, ranging from startups to established brands like Mercedes-Benz, T-Mobile, Ferrero, and GPW (Poland's stock exchange).

The company operates as an agile shop that handles dedicated product builds, web and mobile applications, blockchain and fintech platforms, and team augmentation. Their core leadership—CEO Piotr Żychliński (20 years in IT), CTO Tomasz Mroczek (20 years), and Chief Software Engineer Marcin Piela (20 years)—brings substantial experience in payment systems, infrastructure, and full-stack development.

Services and capabilities

Silk Software House splits its work into four main lines: creative agency support, body and team leasing, blockchain and fintech, and product development for startups.

For creative and marketing agencies, they handle research on emerging technologies, UI/UX design (wireframes, clickable prototypes, user stories), and project management. They work with agencies facing fixed deadlines, overbooked in-house teams, and client demands for newer tech stacks. One client, Grupa LOTOS SA, received a custom Smart GRI non-financial reporting system that was stable and intuitive enough to handle their reporting workflows.

On the team leasing side, they have a pool of 50 developers skilled in Java, PHP, iOS, Android, and UX. Staff augmentation can fill in-house gaps or act as an extended engineering team.

For fintech and blockchain, they cite technological background and project experience as anchors. Portfolio examples include Supergrosz (a startup platform), Mynt and Sports Icon (NFT marketplaces), and DRRT (an NFT robot collection).

Web and mobile apps make up much of their portfolio: e-commerce sites (Frogtech, Supercruises), internal tools (Timebox for time tracking, Planbox for project managers), intranet platforms (Zenith Intranet, which Grupa LOTOS also used), and law firm management software (Iuscase).

Notable work

Mercedes-Benz Vans received a web application; GPW (Giełda Papierów Wartościowych, Poland's main stock exchange) got a trading simulator game. T-Mobile received an integrated communications system. Supergrosz, a startup platform, was built from the ground up. The law firm management app Iuscase handles case workflows. Museo Śląskie (Silesian Museum) has a website in their portfolio.

For Grupa LOTOS SA, Silk delivered the Smart GRI reporting platform plus supporting work on information architecture and designs, then ongoing technical support post-launch. A client testimonial notes the result was "intuitive, stable and accurately reflects information flow and reporting processes."

How they work

Silk operates with agile methodology and emphasizes flexible communication. They have experience with remote collaboration and foreign time zones, using what they describe as a flexible communication system. Their core team of six senior engineers (CEO, CTO, Chief Software Engineer, System Architect, Business Analyst, Senior Systems Administrator) oversees delivery, supported by the broader 60-person team. For creative agencies specifically, they offer project-based engagement with defined scope, timeline, and UX artifacts before build. Pricing is not disclosed on their public site.
