Software development studio in Limassol, Cyprus
Software that fits the way your business actually works
Avientiq Labs is a small team of senior engineers. We design, build and look after web platforms, data systems and cloud infrastructure for companies in Cyprus, the UK and across Europe. Most of our projects start with a long conversation about how things run today. The code comes later.
We usually reply within one working day.

Services
How we can help
Six ways to work with us. If you are not sure which one fits, describe the problem and we will tell you honestly, even if the answer is that you do not need us.
Software development as a service
Senior developers who join your team for as long as you need them. No recruitment fees and no months spent getting up to speed.
Data engineering and AI
Pipelines, lakehouses and reporting on Databricks and Python, so your numbers are right and your AI plans have something solid underneath.
Cloud and DevOps
Azure and AWS setups that are secure, automated and sensibly priced. We also tidy up the ones that grew by accident.
Digital consulting
An honest outside view of your technology. Architecture reviews, roadmaps and due diligence, written for the people who approve the budget.
Leadership consulting
Practical support for new tech leads, founders without a CTO and engineering teams that have lost their rhythm.
Running an engineering team yourself? Our technology and standards page covers the stack, practices and security details your developers will want to see.
How we work
Understand, focus, build, evolve
The same four steps sit behind every engagement, whether it lasts three weeks or three years. They come straight from the values we started the company with.
-
Understand
We talk to the people who will use the software, look at what you already have and agree what success looks like in numbers that matter to you.
-
Focus
We pick the smallest first release that solves the most important part of the problem. You get a fixed price or a clear monthly cost before any work begins.
-
Build
Short cycles with working software you can try every week or two, and a shared board so you always know what is happening and why.
-
Evolve
After launch we measure, fix and improve. When you are ready to run things yourselves, we hand over the code, the documentation and the keys properly.
Industries
Read about our fintech work
Where our experience runs deepest
We work across many sectors, but some problems we have seen often enough to spot the traps early.
-
Fintech and online trading
Client portals, onboarding and KYC flows, trading tools and the back office systems behind them. We know the pressure regulated firms work under, and we build with audits in mind.
-
Financial data
Market and reference data pipelines, reporting and analytics for asset managers and data providers, where a wrong number is never a small problem.
-
Health and connected devices
Monitoring tools and prototypes that bring sensors, mobile apps and cloud dashboards together, built with privacy treated as a requirement from the start.
-
Startups and product teams
First versions built quickly, without the shortcuts that turn into expensive rewrites a year later. We are comfortable being your whole tech team for a while.
Why Avientiq
Why companies choose a small studio
Big agencies have their place. We suit clients who want experienced people close to the work and a partner who will tell them when something is a bad idea.
You work with senior people
Every engagement is led by an engineer with more than a decade in production systems. We never win the work with seniors and then quietly hand it to juniors.
Plain language, always
Updates you can read in two minutes. We explain every choice in terms of cost, time and risk, and we save the jargon for your developers.
You own everything
Your code, your cloud accounts and your data from day one. You can continue without us at any point and nothing is held back.
Close to Europe
We are based in Limassol, work in English and Greek, and share most of the working day with the UK and the rest of Europe.
Ways to work together
Pick the model that suits the work
You can switch between these as your needs change. Plenty of clients start with a short consulting piece and move on from there.
A defined piece of work
Fixed scope and a fixed price, agreed in writing before we start. Best for new products, rebuilds, integrations and anything with a clear finish line.
People inside your team
One or more senior developers working with your team on a monthly basis. They join your standups, use your tools and scale up or down when you need.
A trusted technical voice
A set number of hours each month for architecture, hiring and technical decisions. Useful for founders, boards and managers without a senior engineer to ask.
Questions
Things people usually ask us
Something else on your mind? Email info@avientiq.com and a real person will answer.
Where is Avientiq Labs based?
Our studio is in Limassol, Cyprus. We work with clients in Cyprus, Greece, the UK and across Europe, mostly remotely, and we are always happy to meet in person when it helps.
How much does a software project cost?
It depends on the scope, so we would rather not quote a number that means nothing. After a first conversation we send a short written proposal with either a fixed price or a monthly rate, and a clear list of what is included.
If you have a budget in mind, tell us. It helps us suggest the version of the project that gives you the most for it.
Can you work alongside our existing developers?
Yes, and we often do. We can join your team for a while, review what is already there, or take over a system that someone else built and get it back into good shape.
Will we own the code?
Always. Code lives in your repositories and runs in your cloud accounts from the first day. If you decide to continue without us, you keep everything, along with the documentation to run it.
Which technologies do you use?
We choose what suits the problem and the people who will maintain it. Most of our work uses TypeScript, Node.js, Angular, Python, SQL and MongoDB, running on Azure, AWS or Databricks. The full picture is on our technology page.
Do you sign NDAs?
Of course. Send yours over and we will sign it before any detailed conversation.
Next step
Tell us what you're working on
Send a few lines about your project or the problem in front of you. We'll come back with honest questions, a rough plan and a sense of cost. No sales pitch unless you ask for one.
