Why SoftBytes

A new company, built by experienced engineers

SoftBytes is new, but the people behind it are not. Our founders have spent years building production software for startups and enterprise teams in North America, Europe and Asia: AI platforms, Salesforce programmes, data pipelines and the backends behind them.

We started SoftBytes to offer that experience directly: a senior team where the people who scope your system are the people who build it, and where quality is measured, not assumed.

In practice, that means evaluation suites for every AI system we ship, automated tests on every change, a staging environment you can use from the second week, and code that belongs to you.

It also means telling you when a smaller project, or no project at all, is the better answer.

The backend experience underneath

From 2018 to 2023, before the AI and Salesforce work in our case studies, our founders built the kind of backend systems that AI now plugs into.

Distributed scraping and ETL pipelines that turned unstructured feeds into clean data in PostgreSQL and MongoDB.

Payments and commerce backends

Custom ecommerce backends with Stripe Connect, crypto node RPCs and webhook reconciliation.

High-concurrency services

Django and FastAPI services with Celery and Redis queues, built on carefully designed schemas.

Enterprise systems

Management platforms in C# and Java with role-based access, transactional workflows and calculation engines.

Marketplace platforms

Multi-vendor marketplace backend with split payouts, courier dispatch, rider tracking and e-wallets.
