Engineering & Solutions for algo traders and market-data companies.
Having spent decade developing solutions for high-load market-data crawling and trading, we now possess many ready-to-use solutions and components. These can be adjusted to meet our customers' needs, saving months or even years of development time.
We can easily assist you with:
- Market data crawlers;
- Data analysis;
- Infrastructure for testing and deploying trading strategies;
- Your custom needs.
Choosing us means:
- Speed: We've developed many components with non-exclusive licenses that can be reused;
- Reliability: Our in-house software products boast more than 90% test code coverage;
- Security: We respect our customers' privacy and never disclose customers' names or business-sensitive data;
- Affordability: The average all-inclusive contract prices vary between $13,000 - $17,000 per month/engineer for engineers with over 15 years of experience in IT. Most of our engineers have between 10 and 25 years of expierence.
Technology Stack:
- Backend: We primarily focus on the Erlang and Elixir technology stack — industrial-grade languages known for distributed, soft-real-time, and fault-tolerant features;
- DevOps & Infra: We do any kind of DevOPS and infrastructure automation, but we barely work with MS stack. We mostly prefer to work with AWS stack, Docker, bare metal Linux & FreeBSD servers, Terraform, Ansible, Jenkins / Github actions.
- FrontEnd: We have Phoenix LiveView engineers and React engineers in our on-demand pool for implement customer-specific apps. We can develop both Web and mobile React-native applications;
- Web3: We can help to create applications that fully integrated with decentralized (e.g. blockchains) platforms.
Models of Cooperation for engineering services:
We strive to offer the most flexible options to our customers, allowing them to find the right balance between engineering costs and rights to the parts of final product.
1. Exclusive Model:
The customer receives full rights to the components and source code developed during collaboration.
- The customer pays for software engineering services and, in return, receives full rights for code produced during colloboration;
- All development activities occur in a customer's private and public repositories.
This is standard outsource development model.
2. Non-exclusive Model (Code-and-Rights-Share):
This model suits businesses needing to solve specific engineering case but are okay with parts of the code being used by our engineers in other parts of our systems or for other customers, in exchange for reducing development costs.
- The customer pays for software engineering services and, in return, receives an expansive license to use, sell, distribute, and modify the code produced during the project;
- The contractor (KawBo engineer) also retains the rights to use, distribute, modify the code, including rights of usage it in other parts of our SaaS Platform or in software of our customers;
- Main development activities occur in a customer's private and public repositories;
- Both customer and contractor receives the equalents rights.
This model suits best when customer want to outsource to us implementation of open source library, or some part which is very generic (example - crawler for some specific market platform).
With this model, we grant a 20% discount on our engineering services from the cost of Exclusive model.
3. Non-exclusive SaaS Model:
This model of cooperation designed for a customers who whish to have some feature added to our SaaS platform.
- The customer pays for software engineering services and, in return, the feature will be added to our SaaS platform;
- All rights of the code and services associated remains on KawBo's side;
- Main development activities occur in KawBo's private and public repositories.
This model is mostly suitable for the following cases:
- Adding new market or feature to our Platform;
- Adding some custom API to our Platform;
- Any of your custom needs related to usage of our Platform.
With this model, we grant a 40% discount on our engineering services from the costs of Exclusive model.
