What House of Code does

House of Code (legal entity Digitalni klik d.o.o.) is a Croatian software development service provider headquartered in Zagreb, operating as the exclusive IT partner of AVIV Group — the Axel Springer SE subsidiary that consolidates European digital real estate classifieds platforms including Immowelt, Immonet, SeLoger, and Immoweb. Founded in 2009 as the corporate entity behind the Crozilla.com real estate portal, the company pivoted to a pure software development focus after the May 2022 divestiture of Crozilla.com to Real Web S.A. and a May 2021 rebrand from Digitalni klik to House of Code. The company operates from a 330 sqm Zagreb headquarters (23 workstations), a Split regional office (6 workstations), and a Novalja work-and-travel location.

The company's core offering centers on dedicated development teams and custom web development for European real estate platforms, using a TypeScript/NodeJS/.NET/Angular/Vue stack on AWS Lambda infrastructure. Adjacent services include UX/UI design, branding, photography, 3D visualization, social network management, and cyber security (delivered in partnership). Revenue is generated through quote-based, multi-year managed services and professional services contracts; the bulk of contracted work flows from the AVIV Group captive relationship, with a smaller external client portfolio spanning e-commerce (SAOS), media (Objektivno.hr), and political sector projects. The 11-50 employee, Croatia-based cost structure is the underlying economic engine, enabling competitive billing to German and French enterprise clients while maintaining institutional backing from one of Europe's largest digital publishers.
