Case studies

Three systems, and what they had to survive.

Regulatory screening inside banks, a broadcast archive searchable by what was actually said, and a newsroom publishing against the clock. Each one names the constraint that shaped it.

Banking & complianceLive since 2025

Hawker Limited

AML and compliance screening across the banking sector
The constraint
Screening decisions inside a bank are not support tickets — a missed sanctions match is a regulatory event. The platform had to check every counterparty against sanctions lists, politically exposed persons, criminal records and adverse media, and prove afterwards exactly what it checked and when.
What we built
A screening platform Hawker takes to the banking sector: transaction monitoring, PEP and sanctions screening, adverse-media and criminal checks, with a complete audit trail behind every decision. Built to run inside institutions that are examined, not just audited.
Where it stands
Live across scheduled banks since 2025, reaching 40+ banks and 5+ non-bank financial institutions through Hawker. The discipline it demanded — access control, audit logging, data handling — is now the default on everything else we build.

Media archivingImplementation partner

Rapid PR

TV archiving with automated clipping, transcription and captioning
The constraint
Rapid PR is Bangladesh’s leading media archiving company, and its clients include Bangladesh Police Special Branch and Police Headquarters. Broadcast runs continuously; the archive has to be searchable by who was named and what was said, not merely by channel and timestamp. Manual logging cannot keep pace with that, and an archive nobody can search is not an archive.
What we built
We act as Rapid PR’s technical implementation partner. The TV archiving platform records broadcast continuously and processes it automatically: clipping segments, recognising named entities, transcribing speech and generating captions — so a search returns the moment, not the tape.
Where it stands
In service through Rapid PR, including for Bangladesh Police Special Branch and Police Headquarters. Rapid PR owns the client relationships and the archiving expertise; we own the engineering behind the platform.

News & magazineIn build from 2024

Daily Niropekkho

News portal, e-paper and advertising platform
The constraint
A digital publication has to file against the news cycle, not against a deployment window. Editors publish continuously, the print-style edition has to be ready on schedule, and the advertising that pays for both has to be bookable without a developer in the loop.
What we built
Three connected systems: a news portal for continuous publishing, an e-paper platform for the page-faithful edition, and an advertising panel the commercial team runs themselves — so editorial and revenue operate on the same publishing stack.
Where it stands
Entered build in 2024 as part of our move into media and publishing systems, and remains the reference for the newsroom work we take on.
