What Softengi does

Softengi is a privately held custom software development and IT services company headquartered in Kyiv, Ukraine, with an additional development center in Warsaw, Poland. Founded in 2000 (the company publicly claims 30 years of market presence, which is inconsistent with this date and likely refers to the founders' collective experience), it employs roughly 300 specialists and has delivered over 2,000 projects across 50+ countries. Its core offering is bespoke enterprise software development — web and mobile applications, high-load systems, cloud migration, enterprise integration, and UI/UX design — delivered primarily to large enterprises and government/public-sector clients in financial services, manufacturing, oil & gas, healthcare, retail, and telecommunications.

The company layers specialized technical practices on top of its general engineering base, including Extended Reality (AR/VR/MR/WebXR), IoT solutions (hardware prototyping, embedded software, cloud IoT integration, edge computing, IoT dashboards), and AI/ML (NLP, computer vision, predictive analytics, generative AI, autonomous agents). Notable proprietary products include bidXplore (autonomous procurement AI agent), salesXplore (AI proposal evaluator), and solveXplore (autonomous knowledge base AI agent), all hosted under the xplorum.ai brand and built on vectorized knowledge bases and natural language processing; these launched in November 2025 and represent a shift toward subscription-priced software alongside the firm's professional services.

Softengi monetizes primarily through project-based and time-and-materials professional services contracts with no public pricing, supplemented by fixed-price engagements and (newly) potential subscription/usage-based pricing for its xplorum.ai AI products. Distribution is direct via its website and named enterprise sales contacts (Head of Partnerships Svitlana Onyshchenko, Senior Tech Consultant Maurizio Demarch), augmented by Microsoft Partner and Cloud Solution Provider channels, and a notable public-sector delivery track record including the USAID/UNDP-funded PRMIS deployment for the Royal Grenada Police Force across multiple Caribbean nations. It holds ISO 9001, ISO/IEC 27001:2022, and ISO/IEC 42001:2023 certifications, and is led by CEO Gennadiy Axion and CTO Illia Gandzeichuk.
