Baltazar Bieniek — Custom Software for Mid-Sized and Large Companies
16 years building software that runs operations

Custom software for managerswho need to automate, integrate,and get the data intoone place.

What I do

Custom software for mid-sized and large companies. Automation that earns back your team's week, integration that stops the copy-paste, and AI for the documents your business runs on.

Who I work with

Mid-sized and large companies whose internal tools have outgrown spreadsheets and off-the-shelf software — but who aren't ready to staff a forty-person engineering org.

What I build
01

Custom software, built to fit your team

End-to-end. First working version in weeks, not quarters.

End-to-end ownershipWorking slice in weeksDesigned around your teamBuilt to last
02

Automation that earns its keep

Invoice processing, reconciliations, the back-office routines nobody talks about — replaced by software that runs quietly in the background.

Free up your team's weekFewer manual errorsLower running costsRuns unattended
03

Integration with what you already run

Your ERP, CRM, vendors, identity provider — connected so data flows without copy-paste.

Vendor connectorsOne source of truthSingle sign-onReal-time sync
04

AI for the documents your business runs on

Invoices, contracts, healthcare records, the PDFs your team copies into spreadsheets — turned into structured data. Years of work with NLP, including healthcare-grade models.

How we work together

Fix price, success fee, or time & materials — we'll pick what fits. I run the project end-to-end, so you don't need to staff a project manager on your side. References available on request.
