How we compare with the usual options

Most teams weigh the same four choices. This is how they differ on the things that decide a project.

06 / IN PRODUCTION

We build SaaS because we run one.

Our engineers build and operate a multi-tenant SaaS in production: tenants, billing, permissions, migrations and incident response. The patterns we use on client projects come from that work, not from tutorials.

09 / THE NAME

Named after the man behind the algorithm

Muhammad ibn Musa al-Khwarizmi was a ninth-century Persian mathematician who worked at the House of Wisdom in Baghdad. Latin translations of his work rendered his name as Algoritmi, the origin of the word “algorithm”. His book al-Jabr gave us “algebra”.

ALKWAR (pronounced al-KWAR) takes its name from him. We build software the way he solved equations: step by step, with every step written down.
