This year, Softjourn proudly marks 25 years of bringing our clients’ ideas to life.

What began in 2000 as a small team of innovators in Silicon Valley has evolved into a global consulting and software development company with over 200 employees with a presence in over 30 countries.

From the beginning, we’ve believed in the power of collaboration, continuous improvement, and thinking human: designing technology that adapts to people, not the other way around.

That belief is why today, Softjourn is a trusted partner to clients around the world, known for our expertise in fintech, media & entertainment, and ticketing.

As we celebrate this milestone, we’re also marking 20 years of our first R&D center in Ivano-Frankivsk, Ukraine: a city chosen for its top universities, tech talent, and vibrant culture.

We’ve since expanded with offices in Fremont, California; Wrocław, Poland; and, most recently, in 2023, São Paulo, Brazil, reflecting the global scope of our work and team.

A Full-Cycle Partner, From Idea to Launch

Over 1,500 completed projects later, Softjourn continues to help entrepreneurs, SMEs, and enterprises bring their visions to life. We’ve also documented over 150 case studies to showcase the measurable results and lasting impact we’ve delivered across industries.

Our services span the full software development lifecycle — from consulting and R&D to product design, development, and support.

With deep experience in ticketing, banking & fintech, and expense management, we don’t just write code, we apply domain expertise to build smarter, more impactful solutions.

And through ongoing R&D, we’re advancing innovations in AI, blockchain, and other emerging technologies, while offering ready-to-go products like:

Built on People, Driven by Values

We’re proud that our employees stay with us an average of over 5 years: a sign of the passion, stability, and knowledge that fuels long-term client partnerships.

With a recruiting network of 10,000+ skilled professionals, we continue to grow, while keeping our core values front and center:

  • Live Through Software: We believe every idea is worth building.
  • Just Improve: We’re always learning, teaching, and innovating.
  • Think Human: Empathy and collaboration guide everything we create.
  • Do One More Thing: We push boundaries to unlock new possibilities.

Additionally, 80% of our clients return for additional projects or long-term partnerships. We were honored to recently receive this feedback from a client’s VP of Technology: 

“We normally avoid third-party development, but Softjourn’s deep industry expertise saved us significant costs. Our executive team is now asking what else we can send their way — a conversation I’ve never had at any other company.”

Recognized Globally, Rooted Locally

Our commitment to quality and innovation has earned us recognition on the Inc. 5000 Fastest-Growing Companies list and the IAOP Global Outsourcing 100. We’re also proud AWS and Microsoft partners and regular participants and speakers at industry events like Money20/20, INTIX, Event Tech Live, and more.

At the same time, we remain deeply connected to the communities where we live and work. From ongoing aid and donations to Ukraine to volunteer efforts and charity campaigns across our offices in Poland, Brazil, and the US, giving back is part of who we are.

Looking Ahead

Twenty-five years in, we’re just getting started. Whether it’s helping clients enhance existing platforms, launch new services, or explore the next big idea — we’re ready to build what’s next, together.
