Deputy CSO
Please provide your feedback on how GoodFirms has contributed to increasing your visibility among potential clients.
By listing our company on GoodFirms, we've aligned ourselves with a reputable directory known for connecting businesses with top technology service providers. This enhances our credibility and builds trust with potential clients seeking verified partners. Clients coming from GoodFirms often have a clear understanding of our capabilities, having explored our profile, services, and past work. This shortens the sales cycle, as leads are already familiar with what we offer.
Please introduce your company and describe your role within the organization.
HAKKD is an IT company that specializes in custom software services, AI implementation, and consulting. My role involves collaborating with leadership to define our long-term vision, identifying new market opportunities, and ensuring our services align with emerging trends and client needs. I also work closely with our technical and business development teams to craft solutions that enhance our competitive positioning while maintaining operational efficiency.
What inspired the founding of your company, and what is the story behind its inception?
The founding of HAKKD was inspired by a desire to make technology more accessible and impactful for businesses across industries. Our founders noticed a growing demand for AI-driven solutions, yet many organizations lacked the technical expertise to effectively integrate AI into their operations. This gap, coupled with a passion for innovation, led to the creation of HAKKD.
From day one, our focus has been on building AI solutions, and custom software, and offering consulting services to guide businesses through their digital transformation journey. Over time, we’ve grown into a team of experts who bring together deep technical knowledge and strategic insight to solve complex business challenges.

Could you explain your company's business model? Do you primarily operate with an in-house team or utilize third-party vendors/outsourcing?
HAKKD operates with a primarily in-house team. This allows us to maintain full control over quality and ensure that our services align with our core values of innovation and client-centricity. While our in-house team handles the majority of development and integration work, we also leverage strategic partnerships when specific expertise or scalability is needed for specialized projects, ensuring that we provide the best possible solutions to our clients.
How does your company differentiate itself from competitors in the industry?
We are committed to responsible AI development and data privacy. We adhere to industry standards and regulations, ensuring that our AI solutions are developed and deployed ethically. HAKKD is also prepared to handle increasing demand and adapt to changing market conditions. Our scalable infrastructure and flexible approach allow us to accommodate growth and deliver solutions that meet the evolving needs of clients.
How would you describe the dynamics within your team, and how do you foster collaboration and teamwork to achieve common goals?
We create a positive and effective team dynamic, promote open communication, share common values, foster mutual respect, provide strong leadership, engage in team-building activities, and recognize and reward team members. These strategies can help to build strong relationships, improve collaboration, and achieve common goals.
What measures do you take to support the professional development and growth of your employees? Do you offer training programs or opportunities for skill enhancement?
We support employee development, we offer training programs, create opportunities for growth, implement mentorship, and conduct regular performance reviews. These strategies can help our employees learn and grow, leading to a more engaged and productive workforce.
Could you share a notable success story or case study that exemplifies the impact your company has had on a client's business?
Certainly! Here’s a notable success story that highlights the impact HAKKD has had on a client’s business.
A leading financial services firm operating in a highly regulated industry faced challenges with manual data processing and compliance reporting, which resulted in inefficiencies, increased operational costs, and risks associated with regulatory compliance. Our team implemented advanced machine learning algorithms to automate data extraction, validation, and reporting processes, ensuring accuracy and compliance with regulatory standards. The implementation of our solution led to a 40% reduction in processing time and a 30% decrease in operational costs. Additionally, the client significantly improved their compliance accuracy, reducing the risk of regulatory penalties.

We build and maintain strong client relationships through open communication and the assignment of dedicated account managers who provide personalized service. We conduct regular check-in and progress meetings to discuss updates and gather feedback, utilizing surveys and interviews to gain insights into our services. This client feedback is crucial for our continuous improvement, as we actively review and implement changes based on their input.

This investment in professional development guarantees that our team is prepared to address emerging issues effectively.
What payment structure do you typically follow when billing clients? Is it Pay per Feature, Fixed Cost, or Pay per Milestone (phases, months, versions, etc.)?
Pay per milestone is our most common approach, accounting for approximately 80% of our projects. This method allows us to break larger projects into defined phases, enabling clients to pay as we achieve specific milestones, and ensuring transparency and continuous alignment. For well-defined projects, we also offer a fixed-cost option.
