About us

We write code, not slide decks.

ArhAI was founded in 2024 in Oradea, Romania. Since then we have put 19 platforms into production: three of our own products with public subscription prices, and the rest built for clients or for our own operations. The company is run by its two founders, who also write the code. When a project needs it, we bring in specialists in design, telephony, accounting or infrastructure. That is our whole CV, and you can check most of it in a browser.

What we think

AI was sold as magic. We sell it as software.

In 2025, only about one in five EU companies with ten or more employees used artificial intelligence. In Romania, where we are based, the figure was 5.2%, the lowest in the EU.

The problem is rarely the companies themselves. They were sold an abstract promise instead of a tool. Nobody buys “digital transformation”. People buy “we stop missing three calls a day” or “we get four hours back every Tuesday”.

How we actually work

Four rules we work by

The code can be yours, and you choose the server

If you want the code, we hand over the full source and documentation, so you could bring in another team tomorrow. The application can run with us, on a dedicated VPS in Europe with minute-by-minute monitoring and daily backups, or on your own server.

Fixed price and fixed deadline, not an estimate

We write down what we will build and what we will not, and for complex processes we set the price only after a discovery phase. If we underestimate the work, that is our problem, not yours. It forces us to understand the process before we start, not halfway through.

We tell you when it is not worth it

If a €30-a-month tool can handle your process, we tell you so instead of selling you a project. We have walked away from deals where staying quiet would have been easier.

You always talk to the people who wrote the code

Nobody hands you over to a colleague. The person on the first call is the person who writes your code, and the one who picks up eight months later when a tax authority changes a file format.

Location

Why our location matters

We are a registered company in the EU, with a real office and people you can reach directly, not an anonymous supplier behind a contact form.

We are based in Oradea, in western Romania, and work with clients across Europe. Half of last year’s projects were delivered entirely remotely. If you are nearby, the first conversation can also take place at your premises, where the process we are discussing actually happens.

Write to contact@arhai.ro, or use the contact page.

What we build with

Tools picked for the problem, not for the CV

  • Laravel and PHP: applications with heavy business logic and many integrations
  • Next.js and TypeScript: user interfaces and public products
  • PostgreSQL and MySQL: the data your operations depend on
  • Claude and OpenAI: natural-language features, with a fallback model
  • Docker and automated deployment: one push ships a new version, and rollback takes one click
Next step

Tell us what your team does by hand every week. In 30 minutes, we will tell you roughly what it would cost to automate it.

A conversation, not a sales pitch. We map one of your processes and you leave with a one-page diagram and a price range, both yours to keep even if we never work together.
