Techwards

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I'm the CEO of OrangePro, an AI-powered QA tool that automatically generates end-to-end test cases from product artifacts. We help SaaS teams reduce QA time, increase test coverage, and catch critical bugs before production.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What specific goals or objectives did you hire Techwards to accomplish for OrangePro?

We hired Techwards to develop our QA platform that uses LLM, RAG, and prompt to generate end-to-end test cases.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Techwards built the backend for our persistence layer that would be used for retrieval of context during test generation. The team also handled integration, testing, QA, debugging, and fixing customer-logged bugs.

What is the team composition?

We worked with one teammate from Techwards.

How did you come to work with Techwards?

Someone referred Techwards to me. I chose them over other options because they offered good value for the cost, and their company values aligned with ours.

How much have you invested with them?

We spent less than $10,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

We worked together from September–November 2025.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

Techwards' work led to a quantifiable increase in customer satisfaction with the platform, a reduction in bug count, and an enhancement of existing features. Specifically, our NPS score increased from 60–85, and we saw a 30% monthly reduction in bugs. These results were due to the persistence layer enhancement, context window increase, duplicated test count reduction, enhanced quality of generated tests, and enriched RAG with stories, code, and incidents.

How did Techwards perform from a project management standpoint?

Techwards' project management was good; they delivered on time. We communicated via virtual meetings, emails, and messaging apps.

What did you find most impressive about them?

Working with Techwards was easy and no fuss. The team was very helpful, especially Nabeel, who provided excellent support. Abdullah was an ace engineer; I'd like to work with him again when he's back. Hussain also ramped up fast and delivered.

Are there any areas they could improve?

I can't think of anything for Techwards to improve.

BACKGROUND

Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.

How many people from the Techwards team worked with you, and what were their positions?

Techwards helped me with 2 projects. Each had a project manager. Project 1 included 4 developers and 2 QA engineers, and project 2 included 6 researchers/analysts.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I'm an engineering director at a prominent semiconductor manufacturer. I have teams in the US and India.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Techwards, and what were your goals?

We inherited a legacy codebase that was not compliant with supported versions for Python and Angular. These needed to be modernized and updated.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?

The engineers at Techwards actually had a relationship with our team and some had familiarity with the codebase. Also, they had the experience necessary in our particular tech stack to make the change.

Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.

Our codebase is > 10M lines of code, so it is a big effort to convert everything over. For Angular, there are many structural changes when converting from AngularJS so it's more than just hitting an "upgrade" button and validating. For python, there are many places in code that need upgrades in libraries first, change the syntax to support both, then update again, in a step-wise fashion.

How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

We worked with about 10 engineers on the techwards. They are all software engineers.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?

This work helped free up a larger number of engineers to focus on other feature deliverables while keeping us up-to-date with the latest frameworks. This is a win for security and compliance.

Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.

We defined milestone deliverables together and tracked those in Jira. We meet every week to check on progress and remove any impediments.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

The team is very responsive and willing to work with flexibility to achieve something that fits with our particular organization. When we had some challenges on our side with QA and verification we huddled together and figured out a better way to work as a whole.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

Can't think of any
