What makes us different you ask?

Our work matters to the (real) world

We solve real and complicated problems for our clients. We manage critical transactions and processes of our clients that standard packaged solutions cannot.

We are technology mavens

Building successful softwares is good, building a technical platform is better. The Kbrw platform that we built makes it easier for developers to create the most highly operable and performant solutions.

Kbrw is a promoter of the latest software design philosophy

Our solutions are based on modern philosophies: Microservices, API-first, Cloud-native, headless…and we keep our engineers at the cutting edge of their skillsets.

We believe in full stack control and low dependence

We are a team of full stack software engineers who master our technology end to end.

Unlike heavy monolith solutions on the market, we design simple and elegant solutions that just work. Developers are at their best when they think, not when they copy.

Our Technology stack

Our stack relies on 3 key components:

- React for front development

- Riak for database

- Elixir/Erlang for all the rest

To which we apply 3 key principles:

- Full stack control, meaning we prefer to rebuild internally than lose control over some external tools and frameworks.

- Performances first, meaning every piece of tech we put out is designed to offer the best end-to-end performances possible

- Less is more, meaning that we only put out what’s required for our client solution as for our platform and other internal tools and frameworks, no more.
