It began like many classic startup stories — a bold AI-native company with an innovative vision to disrupt the market. The company sought a partner to help bring its product to life, ultimately choosing EPAM for its engineering expertise and proven track record. While EPAM provided valuable support throughout its journey — from augmenting the client team to co-developing the product — the startup’s creativity and drive propelled innovation forward, paving the way for success in redefining the industry. 

As the PaaS solution was gaining more traction in the market, the necessity for more features increased. The company needed to increase the pace of product release cycles while maintaining previous versions. EPAM helped provide hyper-care for releases and took over product support for R&D and continuous improvement. With greater support from EPAM (about 80% of the larger product team), the startup was able to focus solely on driving its vision forward and advancing its platform. 

Recognizing the importance of a strong integration partner to derive value, the startup officially brought on EPAM as its first professional services partner. We worked together to continue building a transformative solution that met market needs, with EPAM helping the company establish its professional services ecosystem and build a resilient infrastructure on Amazon Web Services (AWS) for broader scale and adoption. As the startup expanded its reach, EPAM helped enable additional partnerships, accelerating the growth and impact of the solution. 

To drive adoption at both the individual and organizational levels, the company created a cutting-edge learning platform designed to meet the needs of diverse personas — from business users and citizen developers to AI engineers. Leveraging EPAM’s learning expertise and talent enablement experience, the modern learning platform empowered users to fully optimize and leverage the tool’s capabilities.  

EPAM helped the company build a technology ecosystem around the core product that integrated with third-party systems and provided the scale and reliability required for the next stage of growth. The startup began expanding its reach into the global market, making itself known as an innovator in IDP, anti-money laundering and financial crimes prevention. With EPAM helping to facilitate enterprise connections and aid in speed to market, the startup was able to deliver over 30 large automation programs, cementing its position in the industry and raising more than $300 million.
