20 million images a day. Smaller, faster, and nobody waits.

We built an image optimisation API backend for an international company, and we have run it ever since. Scaled to 20 million images a day, it compresses, converts, resizes, crops around the subject, and writes alt text with AI.

From MS-DOS to an API. Under 0.3 seconds. Without flying to China.

At a garment factory of one of our Chinese partners, an MS-DOS machine is the heart of an old production line, and nobody may touch it. It still had to be connected to the CRM through an API, with responses under 0.3 seconds, without stopping the production line. We did it, entirely remotely.

Tens of thousands of EU documents, in Hungarian in minutes

MFOI needed tens of thousands of EU grant and funding documents translated into Hungarian, in precise legal and financial language. We built an AI translation system trained for exactly this: nearly 100 times more cost-effective than a translation agency, and minutes instead of weeks.

From zero at 8 pm to a live demo at noon

Just before launch, a partner lost the entire backend of a bilingual video job interview system, backups included. The demo was the next day at noon, with around EUR 90,000 of EU funding at stake. We rebuilt it from scratch overnight.

No card, no guard: 1.2 seconds at the gate

A municipality serving over 400,000 residents ran access to dozens of sites with key cards, manual barriers and security guards. We built AI-based vehicle and personnel recognition: it decides in 1.2 seconds, with no access cards and no on-site guards.

From a hacked server to safety in 12 hours

The server of a webshop with over a billion forints in yearly sales was hacked after five years without maintenance. We moved it somewhere safe in 5 hours, and we've been rebuilding it alongside live traffic ever since.

Millions of images a day, recognised in under a second

A growing enterprise's image recognition service buckled at peak times. We built a horizontally scaling API: it processes millions of images a day with sub-second response times, and handles 10x traffic spikes without manual intervention.
