At the same time, the market itself underwent noticeable changes. Several competitors consolidated, adjusted their strategies, raised prices, and, in some cases, lowered service levels or product quality. In this environment, stability, reliability, and long-term commitment became more important than ever. This shift played to our strengths. As a stable, independent, technology-driven company with no outside investments, we were able to provide continuity, predictable roadmaps, and reliable support when our customers needed it most. For many organizations, 2025 was a year of transition and of choosing a reliable long-term partner.

Strong growth and new relationships

One of the most rewarding aspects of 2025 was the continued growth of our customer base. We welcomed many new clients from regulated and document-intensive industries such as healthcare, insurance, banking, and legal services, as well as many others with complex and demanding document requirements. Meanwhile, our long-standing customers expanded their usage, rolled out new projects, and entrusted us with increasingly mission-critical scenarios.

Our partner ecosystem also grew significantly. New partnerships were formed and existing relationships were strengthened. Together, we supported more projects in more regions with greater depth and expertise. This collaborative approach once again proved that strong partnerships are a key driver of sustainable success.

A year of technical progress

A major factor in our steady, purposeful technical progress was our continued investment in cross-platform capabilities. Expanding beyond traditional Windows environments was more than just a checkbox on a roadmap; it was a strategic commitment. By advancing our platform-independent technologies, we enabled modern deployment scenarios, including those involving Linux-based servers, containerized environments, and cloud-native architectures, all without compromising document fidelity or editing precision.

An exciting path ahead

Looking ahead, one of the most exciting developments is our extensive work to move beyond a Windows-only foundation. By developing our own platform-independent window management, font handling, and SVG-based graphics stack, we have established a modern, flexible foundation that enables a new level of innovation.

This effort included a deliberate departure from traditional Windows graphics technologies, such as GDI and GDI+. Instead, we developed a custom SVG-based rendering engine that provides full control over rendering behavior, scaling, and visual consistency across platforms. This shift was essential to ensuring an identical appearance of documents regardless of operating system while also removing long-standing platform constraints.

Many performance-critical operations have always required native execution at the core of our technology. Small, high-frequency API calls and CPU-intensive document processing tasks cannot be handled efficiently by managed layers alone. For these scenarios, we have long relied on highly optimized C++ runtime libraries that are deeply tied to Win32 APIs. While this approach delivered the necessary performance, it also presented a significant portability challenge.

To address this issue, we introduced a clear abstraction layer around the native runtime. This design cleanly separates platform-specific functionality from the core logic, enabling us to maintain performance while decoupling from Windows. With this abstraction in place, we successfully ported and compiled our native runtimes for Linux and Windows.

They can also be built for additional platforms, such as macOS, as well as entirely new and highly promising browser-based runtime environments that open the door to exciting future possibilities.

This architectural shift is a significant milestone. It frees our technology from platform ownership and gives us the flexibility to explore new use cases, platforms, and product ideas while maintaining the performance, precision, and reliability demanded by professional document processing.

We are actively researching and experimenting with new approaches built on top of this technology. While it is still early, the potential is enormous.

Stay tuned. More details will follow soon.

Thank you for an incredible 2025

As we move toward 2026, we do so with confidence and optimism. The foundation we have built is strong. Our roadmap for the future is ambitious. Market interest shows that professional document processing remains a critical building block for modern applications.

We are excited to continue this journey, deepen existing relationships, welcome new partners and customers, and deliver technology that developers enjoy working with and businesses can rely on.

Thank you to everyone who was part of our 2025 journey. We look forward to what comes next.
