Our story

How Amalgam started

Founded by a software professional with a decade of experience in core banking. Amalgam has since built software for banks, insurers, energy companies, ventures and foundations.

Regulated work taught the team to review every phase and write decisions down. That discipline is on every project.

Working with us

What you can expect from us

  • We learn your business first

    Before we suggest anything, we talk to your people and read your code and documents.

  • We say when something is hard

    If a plan is risky or not worth the money, we tell you early and explain why.

  • You see working software early

    Each phase ends with something you can test and judge yourself.

  • People own the decisions

    You set the goal and make the calls. AI works only on data you approve.

After launch

We stay after launch

Software keeps changing after it ships. These three clients kept us on after their launch.

I’ve seen other companies do better than us, but I’m yet to see those companies retaining over 95% of their clients like we have.
