TESTIMONIALS

Chosen by teams that need transformation

We work with business and technology leaders in financial services, health tech, and regulated industries who need to move fast and get it right.

They choose Foci when they need scalable systems, reliable automation, and engineering excellence, not surface-level AI.

The work that Foci did for us was a complete game changer. Our company was under extreme pressure because we had to pivot our product strategy to a completely different cloud architecture and user interface and we had less than a year to deliver. On our own, it would have been impossible. Working with Foci, we completed the project on time and on cost. The final product was so strong that it helped us sell the company less than a year later.

Joe C

CEO

Foci supported us in developing a first-of-its-kind AI model that serves our day-to-day operations while simultaneously establishing a scalable and reusable foundation model. Their architecture and approach significantly reduced future model development time, enabling faster replication across use cases and promoting reusability across multiple operational workflows.

Rayan A

Senior Executive Manager

Foci is an accelerant that helped my team and our business adopt modern software development principles, technologies and processes. They are like a double espresso for your business that breaks blind spots and echo chambers while moving quickly towards a shared mission.

Mark C

Chief Product Officer

Foci partnered with us to deliver several critical projects for some of our top customers. In all cases, Foci's excellence in delivery, their attention to detail, and their incredible ability to generate momentum and velocity resulted in $M's of new revenue and improved our own reputation and standing with our key customers.

Zohaib B

Founder, Managing Partner

Foci's team integrated with mine from day one and brought a level of technical and process expertise that transformed how we work. Their strong agile methodology and modern tooling practices didn't just deliver on our project, they educated and influenced my team in ways that stuck. The team members who worked alongside Foci are now our internal champions for modern development practices and continue to drive that excellence forward.

Nick M

VP Engineering

One of the great things about working with Foci was the breadth of the technical team that they could bring to bear on our project. It was a large project with many complex technical subsystems. The Foci team was able to field exactly the right team -- both the skills and the number of people -- to get the job done. The Foci team would flex up and down as needed in various different skill areas. There is no way to have that kind of flexibility on your own in a small or mid-sized company.

Joe C

CEO

Foci brings a rare blend of strong business acumen and deep technical capability. They quickly grasped the complexities of our operations, communicated clearly, and collaborated seamlessly with both our business and IT teams. Their ability to translate operational challenges into practical AI solutions was a key differentiator.

Rayan A

Senior Executive Manager

Every business/project is unique and different. We have our own culture, history and context that needs to be navigated for a project to be successful. Foci showed up on day 1 extremely collaborative with expertise and empathy that quickly built trust across all of our teams to ensure our milestones were met together.

Mark C

Chief Product Officer

The Foci team also treated the project like they owned it. They weren't just there to help us out and to get paid for doing what they were asked. They were as invested in the success as our own team.

Joe C

CEO

The Foci team are exceptional collaborators. Their team integrated with ours seamlessly. Their engineers were top notch and excelled at everything we threw at them. They showed us what high performance delivery looked like and helped us raise the bar.

Zohaib B

Founder, Managing Partner

The combination of technical excellence and disciplined project management really set Foci apart. Their team was exceptionally well-trained and professional across the board, it wasn't just strong developers, but project managers who brought tremendous value in keeping everything aligned and moving forward effectively.

Nick M

VP Engineering

Working with Foci was effortless. It truly felt like they were a part of our team from the start to the finish. There was never any of that classic consulting feeling of us versus them. Everyone worked together to complete the final project. There was none of the constant negotiation of change orders or questions around the scope of work. It was a seamless amplification of our team.

Joe C

CEO

Our experience has been hassle-free and highly professional. The team consistently goes above and beyond expectations and demonstrates a partnership mindset rather than a vendor relationship.

Rayan A

Senior Executive Manager

Foci is like dropping a start-up product & engineering team into your business that quickly up-levels your people, processes and technology. They truly approach engagements as a partner that delivers on what they say they are going to do.

Mark C

Chief Product Officer

They're the best engineering team you'll ever work with, full stop. You really have to experience it to believe it. It's everything from the way they ramp up to the way they communicate to the way they solve problems and bring you along through the journey. I couldn't ask for more in a partner.

Zohaib B

Founder, Managing Partner

Foci's people become part of your team seamlessly and take their work seriously. It's like getting access to the best talent in the market without having to recruit, vet, and onboard them yourself, they arrive ready to deliver from day one.
