Immersive experience that generated more media coverage than anything we had shipped before

Hyun-Su Lim / Director of Platform - Hanam Tech Solutions

Jan 02, 2026

Project summary: Serialisation requirements under new traceability legislation had a compliance deadline. Our supply chain system required targeted development to meet it — generalist knowledge was not sufficient.

Six months after go-live our platform is processing three times the transaction volume we specified in the original brief. The architecture choices made during discovery accommodated that growth without remediation work. That is the difference between a team that designs for what you tell them and a team that designs for what you are likely to need. We are in conversation about a Phase 2 engagement and I expect to be using this partnership for several years.

PROS

Deep domain knowledge that reduced the discovery overhead significantly, proactive risk identification before issues became incidents, delivery cadence that our stakeholders found reassuring

CONS

Their insistence on a detailed functional specification before development began felt like friction at the time. In retrospect, it was the reason the development phase ran without the ambiguity that has derailed similar projects for us previously

Questions & Answers

Please describe your company, your role, and the industry you operate in.
Hanam Tech Solutions operates in the Pharmaceuticals & Biotechnology sector with headquarters in Incheon, South Korea. In my role as Director of Platform I am accountable for the full technology agenda — infrastructure, product, and vendor relationships. We are a commercially driven organisation and every technology decision is evaluated against a clear business case before it is approved.
What specific problem or business challenge led you to hire this company?
Our platform had been maintained by a previous vendor for three years and the accumulated technical debt had reached a point where delivery velocity had dropped to a fraction of what it should have been. We needed fresh engineering expertise and a structured plan to address the underlying issues.
What services did the company provide for your project?
End-to-end AR/VR Development delivery with particular depth in the integration and data migration components, which were the highest-risk elements of the programme. They supplemented this with a dedicated QA resource throughout development and a documented runbook for our operations team at handover.
Why did you choose this company over other providers you considered?
We had a failed engagement behind us and were more rigorous in our selection process as a result. We asked detailed questions about how they managed scope change, how they handled estimation, and how they communicated problems. The answers were specific, evidenced, and consistent across the team members we spoke to. That gave us confidence that the process was real rather than rehearsed.
How clearly did the company understand your requirements and business goals?
Comprehensively. The discovery phase they ran was more thorough than anything we had experienced with previous vendors. They challenged requirements that were vague or contradictory, proposed alternatives where our initial thinking was limiting, and produced a functional specification that our internal stakeholders agreed was the clearest articulation of the product they had seen written down.
How was your overall experience with their communication and project management?
The project management framework was the most structured I have experienced with an external vendor. Sprint planning was tight, acceptance criteria were specific, retrospectives were honest and acted on. The project manager treated the shared backlog as a live document and the risk register as an operational tool rather than a compliance artefact. I never had to ask for a status update.
Did the company deliver the project on time and within your expected budget?
The project landed on time. The budget was managed within the agreed ceiling, which included one client-driven scope addition that was quoted fairly and handled without affecting the original delivery stream. The discipline around budget transparency throughout meant there was no surprise at invoice stage.
What tangible results or business impact have you seen since the project was completed?
The most direct measure is the performance of the system in production. In the five months since go-live we have had zero P1 incidents, our page performance scores have improved across every Core Web Vitals metric, and two enterprise clients who had cited our previous platform limitations during contract negotiations have since renewed without that objection arising.
What did you like most about working with this company?
The willingness to be direct. When our requirements were unclear they said so. When our priorities were contradictory they explained why. When a technical approach we had assumed was the right one turned out to have significant downsides, they told us before we had committed to it. That kind of intellectual honesty is what I look for in a long-term technology partner.
Would you recommend this company to others, and would you work with them again?
Unreservedly. We are in active scoping conversations for a second engagement and I expect this to develop into a multi-year partnership. For any organisation in the Pharmaceuticals & Biotechnology sector looking for AR/VR Development expertise combined with genuine delivery discipline, I would put this team at the top of the evaluation list.

FAQs

Can SEMbyotic take on an old, outdated system rather than starting from scratch?
Modernizing legacy software is usually within scope for a firm like SEMbyotic — re-platforming, refactoring old code, and moving things onto current frameworks or cloud infrastructure without necessarily rebuilding everything from zero.

Can I just hire developers from SEMbyotic to sit alongside my own team?
Usually, yes — a dedicated developer arrangement is a common option with firms like SEMbyotic, where you get engineers working exclusively on your project as an extension of your in-house team rather than as a separate outsourced unit. For context, it has experience across industries such as Events & Event Management, Pharmaceuticals & Biotechnology, Advertising & Marketing, Aerospace & Defense and Retail & E-commerce, and it has been operating since 2014.
Does SEMbyotic only work locally, or take on clients elsewhere too?
SEMbyotic isn't necessarily limited to one region and may take on clients across several countries, depending on market demand and business partnerships.
Is SEMbyotic more of an offshore setup or a local team?
That depends on where SEMbyotic is based and who they primarily serve — some firms like this operate fully offshore, some are local-first, and plenty run a hybrid model that mixes both. For context, it has experience across industries such as Events & Event Management, Pharmaceuticals & Biotechnology, Advertising & Marketing, Aerospace & Defense and Retail & E-commerce, and its average project cost is reported at $5000000+.
Does SEMbyotic actually build with AI, or just talk about it?

For context, its listed capabilities span Crypto Exchange Development, Enterprise App Modernization, Mobile App Design, Custom Software Development and App Marketing, and it has been operating since 2014.
What makes SEMbyotic worth considering over other options?
What tends to set SEMbyotic apart usually comes down to some mix of technical depth, relevant industry experience, how clients describe working with them, their development approach, communication habits, and whether they can actually deliver something that scales. Founded in 2014, the company has built a track record of delivering projects across various industries.
Roughly how long does a project with SEMbyotic take start to finish?
It depends heavily on scope. A lean MVP might be a matter of weeks, while a full enterprise system or a larger digital transformation project can stretch into months once you factor in development, testing, and deployment. With a team of 2 - 9 professionals, SEMbyotic can scale resources based on project urgency.
Would SEMbyotic be a good fit for an early-stage startup?

For context, its listed capabilities span Crypto Exchange Development, Enterprise App Modernization, Mobile App Design, Custom Software Development and App Marketing, and it has experience across industries such as Events & Event Management, Pharmaceuticals & Biotechnology, Advertising & Marketing, Aerospace & Defense and Retail & E-commerce.
Has SEMbyotic actually shipped a SaaS product before?
It's a common line of work for a company like SEMbyotic — multi-tenant architecture, subscription billing hooked up properly, and cloud-native deployment built for a product meant to scale as a service rather than a one-off build. For context, its listed capabilities span Crypto Exchange Development, Enterprise App Modernization, Mobile App Design, Custom Software Development and App Marketing, and it has experience across industries such as Events & Event Management, Pharmaceuticals & Biotechnology, Advertising & Marketing, Aerospace & Defense and Retail & E-commerce.
What should I actually be looking at when comparing a company like SEMbyotic to others?
When you're weighing up a software partner such as SEMbyotic, it's worth looking past the pitch and checking the portfolio, what past clients say, relevant industry background, technical range, how they communicate, pricing structure, project management style, and what support looks like after launch. For context, its listed capabilities span Crypto Exchange Development, Enterprise App Modernization, Mobile App Design, Custom Software Development and App Marketing, and it reports a team size of 2 - 9 professionals.
