Gain a better understanding of your idea, your end user, the risks, challenges, project scope, and overall objectives.
Lean on the expertise of an interdisciplinary team of UX designers, software architects, and engineers.
With every new software idea, it’s important to first test the waters. Before committing to a full-cycle software development project, we use a design sprint to validate your idea and gain a clearer picture of your user’s needs.
The Keeper Solutions Design Sprint is used to map out challenges, test assumptions, and outline best approaches. We then build a clickable prototype, which is rigorously tested and used to assess if an idea is worth pursuing.
Our approach can be boiled down into five simple words – map, sketch, decide, prototype, and test.
Investigate use cases to see how specific AI technologies could be used to enhance your software.
A Collaborative Approach to Software Validation
You take an active part in the Keeper Solutions Design Sprint. We work with you to better understand your company, objectives, target audience, and current range of solutions. This allows us to design a solution that reflects your company and your values.
In-Depth Understanding of Your Users and Their Needs
To build software that captures the imagination of your audience, you need to step into the mind of your user.
During our Design Sprints we dive deep into user profiles (needs, wants, desires, fears of the end-user) and user journeys (which describes the journey that a user takes to complete a task or create value). This user-centric approach allows you to design a solution that your audience will love.
Continuous User Testing To Increase Speed-to-Market
Once we’ve built your clickable prototype, we perform continuous user testing. These tests provide immediate feedback, serving as a litmus test for the solution’s market fit.
Rigorous user testing drastically reduces risks, increases time-to-market, and informs investment decisions. It also gives you the data you need to decide on next steps.
“What sets Keeper Solutions apart is the quality of its people. That goes for both their own in-house team and the quality of the developers they supply. It’s the perfect solution for us.”
How do venture capital investors respond to founders that use software design and development services from a partner like Keeper Solutions?
Almost all of the companies we work with are venture funded, and we maintain a close relationships with a number of FinTech venture capitalists. They continually tell us that using a software design and development partner like Keeper Solutions is preferred as it allows the founder and team to receive high quality development services at a lower cost than hiring an internal development team. However, investors do want their portfolio company to have a Chief Technology Officer and a Chief Product Officer as part of the leadership team. These leadership positions should not be outsourced.
What important criteria should be considered when evaluating a software design and development partner?
If you are looking to build financial software, you need to find a partner that understands financial services and the critical regulations imposed on financial software. The deeper the understanding of regulations the more likely it is that a development team will be to create software that is compliant the first time around. A strict understanding of information security is also a critical trait in your design and development partner.
Why does Keeper Solutions focus on financial technology?
Keeper Solutions works exclusively with financial software and has worked with many companies in the FinTech space. This area is dynamic, challenging, and full of opportunity. Our teams embrace the software design and development challenges that come with a financial software build. We are also big believers on the future growth of the financial technology market.
Where do your teams reside?
Keeper Solutions builds world-class solutions for FinTech companies in Europe and North America, while utilizing an outsourced software development engagement model.
We have a network of remote delivery centers in Croatia, Serbia, Romania, and Poland, where the majority of our team resides. We also have a team of developers in Ireland, where Keeper Solutions has its headquarters. In this way, when companies work with Keeper Solutions, they reap the rewards of a more cost effective outsourced engagement model.
How does Keeper Solutions support the growing demand for Artificial Intelligence solutions?
With growing demand, Keeper Solutions has made AI a priority in recent years.
We offer a range of services related to AI integration and opportunity mapping.

– Custom Gen AI Chatbot: Our team of AI specialists can work with you to build your own Generative AI Chatbot.
In 2023, we set up the Keeper Solutions AI Lab. This is a focused space where a dedicated team of our AI specialists work together to research the latest AI technologies and their potential applications within financial software.
AI training and upskilling is also critically important. Generative AI is constantly evolving and we dedicate a significant amount of time on upskilling and training on platforms such as Vertex AI, ChatterBot and GPT-5.
