SoftState Technologies

SoftState Technologies is a software development company founded in 2017 by Alexandru Croitoru (CEO) and Alexandru Sîrbu (CTO), based in Timișoara, Romania. The company has built a focused practice around healthcare, developing web and mobile applications using React and React Native. They work with a team of around 20 engineers (names listed on their site include Sebastian Șutu as Lead React Developer, Denis Obreja, Silvana Băbescu as Lead QA, and several others across front-end, back-end, and QA roles). The company positions itself as small enough to maintain direct communication with clients but structured enough to handle complex, scalable projects.

Services and capabilities

SoftState's main offering is end-to-end React and React Native development. They provide three service lines: front-end development (React, Next.js, Gatsby, Redux), back-end development (Node.js, GraphQL, JavaScript), and mobile development (React Native for iOS and Android). They also offer UI/UX design, positioning it as critical to customer retention, with emphasis on user-centric design and functional layouts across devices.

Their stated process centers on communication and partnership. They describe their approach as one where "everyone on the project works together to complete the set of work they have collectively committed to complete"—meaning no traditional hierarchy of software engineering roles. The company emphasizes regular updates on project progress and GDPR compliance as a standard feature of their products.

Notable work

SoftState's portfolio consists primarily of healthcare applications. For Linus Health, they built the Linus Administrator app (patient registration, cognitive assessments, provider routing) and the Linus Research app (clinical trial and research study management for life sciences). They developed Bevie Senior and Bevie Companion, mobile applications for assessing brain health in older adults and facilitating family connections in senior living communities. For Huckleberry, they built a consumer app combining sleep guidance, expert advice, and baby tracking. AtScale was a front-end development engagement around data insights and AI/ML investment visualization.

Client testimonials are specific. Dr. John Langton (CTO, Linus Health) noted that SoftState "truly operate[s] as part of our team" and credited "technical excellence" as essential to their success. Dr. Seng Toh (CTO, Huckleberry Labs) stated the team "will only commit to something that they can do and excel in. Second grade work is not accepted to them." Paul Ardeleanu (Founder, Marketing Deck) highlighted "transparent communication" and speed of implementation.

How they work

Engagement appears to be project-based, structured around Agile/Scrum methodologies. The source indicates SoftState integrates with client scrum processes and attends design and planning meetings. Their stated philosophy is "Clarify first, execute later," with daily working code delivery to keep clients informed. Communication is positioned as central; they describe collaboration as "rather friendly and close" given their team size. Pricing is not disclosed on the website. Team members are described as having no traditional engineering hierarchy, with all contributors owning completion of committed work.
