Software that grows from good ground.
Loam is an AI-native software house in Bratislava. Senior engineers and AI agents work in the same loop to build web platforms, native Apple apps and AI products.

20 years
Over 70 projects shipped for companies across the EU and US since the early 2000s.
Publishing, retail, healthcare, public sector
Small team, long memory, fast hands.
We've spent more than twenty years building software for publishers, retailers, healthcare and the public sector: over 70 projects for companies across the EU and US. That experience is what we bring to the decisions. AI is what lets a small, senior team turn those decisions into working software at the pace of a much larger one.
We also build and run our own products. Six apps on the App Store keep our process honest: every practice we recommend to clients, we use on ourselves first.

How a project runs

-
Build
Weekly releases you can try. Agents handle routine implementation and tests; a senior engineer owns every merge.
