PayFlow: Payment Orchestration Platform
A startup needed to launch a multi-PSP payment gateway before their runway ended. Traditional agencies quoted 6 months.
The Challenge
PayFlow was burning $40K/month and needed a working product to close their Series A. They had 8 weeks of runway and quotes from agencies ranging from $150K to $300K with 4-6 month timelines.
They needed: Multi-PSP integration (Stripe, Adyen, PayPal), real-time transaction monitoring, merchant onboarding, and PCI-compliant architecture.
Our Approach
We deployed 3 AI specialists focused on backend, 2 on frontend, and 1 on infrastructure. Using pre-built secure templates and AI-generated boilerplate, we eliminated 80% of repetitive coding.
Week 1: Core API + Stripe integration. Week 2: Dashboard + Adyen. Week 3: Testing + PayPal + Deployment.
"I was skeptical about the timeline. But they shipped a production-ready platform in 3 weeks that our internal team couldn't have built in 3 months. We closed our Series A two weeks later."
