Da Vinci Studio

Custom software from a Polish studio with 15 years behind it

Da Vinci Studio writes and delivers dedicated applications and business software for clients, and has done so for more than 15 years, according to its current site. Its work falls into three streams: dedicated applications, IT services for business, and programmer outsourcing, where developers join a client team. The company says it has released over 900 projects for more than 250 customers, that most new clients arrive by referral, and that nearly all of its projects are delivered on schedule. Those are its own figures.

How a project usually starts

The studio often opens with a workshop, then defines the scope of a first release, a minimum viable product, before moving into longer development. It also runs event storming sessions, a workshop method used to uncover problems early in a design. One client case describes the process: a firm in marine transport saw a problem in how container shipping was quoted, took the idea to the studio, agreed a scope after a workshop, and went on to years of further development after the first version was well received.

Software for freight, health and food

The projects it shows come from different sectors. Quotiss is quoting software for freight forwarders that handles sea, land and air transport, from container sizes to general cargo, and the company says it can produce most quotes automatically. Vinci Medicine is a mobile system for preliminary diagnosis that interviews patients and supports telemedicine, so staff who are not physically at a facility can still give consultations. For a German food brand it built a multi-platform lottery system with an image landing page and e-commerce, designed so that later marketing campaigns could reuse the same pieces.

Mobile apps and virtual classrooms

The Virtual School is a mobile application that lets a person who cannot attend in person take part in language classes, using virtual reality with real-time video and audio streaming. A football club app for iOS and Android has been in use by fans since July 2017, and the studio says it continues to provide technical support for it. Other work mentioned includes web applications and internal systems, plus maintenance and support of an e-commerce platform.

Who it suits

The studio positions itself as a technology partner in Poland for companies that have an idea but not the technical knowledge to carry it out. It says it is open to technologies beyond the ones it lists, and invites visitors to attach a specification if they have one. The pages describe its commitments as timely delivery, steady technical assistance after launch and a collaborative way of working with client teams.
