Relipa

What Relipa does

Relipa is a Vietnam-based offshore software development company founded in 2016 in Hanoi by three Vietnamese engineers who graduated from Ritsumeikan University in Japan. The company provides full-cycle software development services — including web, mobile, and system development, AI consulting and implementation, Web3 and blockchain development, legacy system modernization, and DX consulting — primarily to Japanese mid-to-large enterprises through a wholly-owned Japan subsidiary (Relipa Japan JSC, established 2018 in Tokyo). Its commercial model centers on lab-type retainer engagements (minimum 3-month contracts, 140-180 engineer hours/month) supplemented by project-based contracts, with the company positioning a 30-50% cost advantage versus domestic Japanese development alongside ISO 9001 and ISO/IEC 27001 certifications and a 90% customer retention rate in lab-type work.

Underlying technology spans mainstream full-stack stacks (Java, .NET, Python, Node.js, React, Angular, Vue.js, TypeScript, Go, Ruby), cloud-native infrastructure (AWS, Azure, GCP, Docker, Kubernetes, microservices, GraphQL), and modern AI/ML, blockchain, and zero-knowledge proof capabilities. Relipa has invested in proprietary products that it sells both internally to clients and externally as white-label packages: RetailSatori (AI web scraping), Paradial (MPC crypto wallet), AI OCR Accounting Assistant (Generative AI + AI Agents for receipt processing), AI Agent Document Search System (Microsoft Teams-embedded semantic enterprise search), Symptera (AI symptom triage for healthcare/nursing DX), zkTrade (Zero-Knowledge Proof trading infrastructure on Cardano), and NFT Orip a white-label platforms. Fixed-price white-label offerings for Telegram mini apps ($6,000-$35,000), NFT Orip a platforms (¥3-5 million), and MPC wallets have opened a parallel productized revenue stream alongside professional services.

The company employs roughly 100 engineers, more than 50% of whom graduated from top Vietnamese universities with 120+ annual training hours per engineer, and operates a sales-led GTM through its Tokyo entity with Japanese-speaking BrSE/PM teams. Beyond its core Japan services business, Relipa's broader network has extended into India fintech via the Relipay/Jio Payments Bank cardless cash withdrawal partnership. The firm is privately held by its founders, has not disclosed external institutional funding, and marked its 10th anniversary in April 2026 alongside recognition including the Sao Khue Award 2023 and the Vietnam Top 10 Digital Technology Companies Award 2023.
