What Giraffe Studio does

Giraffe Studio sp. z o.o. is a Kraków, Poland-based custom software development company that designs and builds mobile applications, web platforms, e-commerce systems, and enterprise software for clients across multiple industries and geographies. The firm operates a dual model: a professional services software house offering Android (Kotlin/Flutter), iOS (Swift), cross-platform Flutter, WordPress, e-commerce (WooCommerce, Node.js, Vendure), CMS/CRM/ERP (Angular, React, Ruby), UX/UI design, and API development (Express.js, Nest.js), alongside a portfolio of more than 20 proprietary applications either built for clients or developed as in-house case-study products. Technical work spans JavaScript, React, NestJS, Angular, Swift, Kotlin, Flutter, Docker, AWS, and Digital Ocean, with integrations into LS Retail, Vendure, Parse/Back4App, Google Maps API, and Facebook Pixel.

The company monetizes primarily through project-based custom development engagements using Time & Material or Fixed Price pricing, supplemented by IT outsourcing and team extension services. Its go-to-market is sales-led, anchored by a structured six-step engagement process from initial contact through workshops, planning, design, SCRUM/Agile development sprints (2-3 weeks each), and delivery, with a "Get a Quote" intake form as the primary conversion mechanism. It targets SMBs, startups, and large enterprises across diverse verticals including construction, travel, fitness, e-learning, healthcare, e-commerce, beauty, and media, with operational presence in Poland and a regional office in Waterloo, New South Wales, Australia.

The firm has delivered 60+ products to clients in countries including Poland, the UK, USA, Australia, Senegal, and Fiji, with notable engagements including Camps Australia Wide (100,000+ users, 13,500+ campsites), Sovereign (construction management saving 400+ hours annually), New World (Fiji e-commerce platform with 1M+ products across 20 stores), and Swim Express (Australian swimming centers). Ownership appears founder-led, with Sebastian Kruk as CEO & CTO and Agata Kruk as COO & Project Manager, with no disclosed external institutional investment, no M&A activity, and no subsidiaries reported.
