A good fit

Thinslices fits startups, scaleups and corporate innovation teams that want one partner to take a digital product from discovery through design, build and maintenance. Its industry pages concentrate on fintech, healthtech, telecom and publishing, and the fintech material covers mobile banking, payments, investment, audit and open-banking products. The company offers an Idea to MVP package for validating and launching a first product version, and a Teams as a Service model for dedicated delivery teams. Its published case studies include German fintech companies and international medical and academic publishers, which makes it relevant to buyers looking for a Romania-based product team for international work.

Services

Services are organized in four phases. Ideate covers product design sprints, product validation sprints, rapid prototyping, research and development, and user research and testing. Design covers product design, UX and UI design, UX reviews and design systems. Develop covers web applications, native iOS and Android apps, cross-platform apps with Flutter and React Native, low-code development and AI development services. Maintain covers quality assurance, agile project management, product management and DevOps. Backend work centres on JavaScript and Node.js, with Java and NoSQL databases also listed. The company also presents Ivory, an open-source mobile banking app, and Dataphant, a platform for bootstrapping AI applications.

Representative work

For BMJ, Thinslices describes decoupling the front end and back end of bmj.com, moving away from Drupal 7 to a WordPress-based setup delivered with Node.js, Next.js, AWS Lambda and Vercel, then extending the work to non-article pages across more than 60 further journals. For Hindawi, it describes a six-week product design phase and a nine-month MVP build of a peer-review platform on Node, React, PostgreSQL and AWS, followed by the migration of the publisher's journals from its legacy system. For the Berlin fintech Penta, a team built a React Native banking app to match the existing web platform and later added sub-accounts and permissions.
