Kiwi.com is an online search engine allowing users to combine transportation options from non-cooperating carriers. It is powered by its proprietary algorithm (Virtual Interlining) that allows users to combine flights and ground transportation from over 750 carriers.
Kiwi was ranked in the Deloitte Technology Fast 500 EMEA list with 7th place in 2017 and 5th place in 2018.
It all started in 2016. Kiwi looked for a partner to provide a highly-skilled, flexible development team required to collaborate on its quickly rising online portal with an expanding portfolio.
Those four years we guided the development on both ends. Starting with a small efficient team boosting the search tools, the cooperation continuously grew into the development partnership. Nowadays we have teams across four of our locations working on the Kiwi.com project. We are continually enhancing the frontend, flight aggregator, flight search algorithms, scalability, and performance to support Kiwi's multi-thousand-percent growth.
Kiwi.com's Search engine is one of the top customer-facing products on the market using cutting-edge technologies. Vacuumlabs was a logical choice for us to improve user-experience with superb technology in the background. The relationship is very strong and the guys are acting not just like a Vendor or a Partner. Considering the fact our cooperation began 4 years ago, they are acting more like colleagues or even as friends. It's not just about cooperation on development, but they are always happy to discuss and improve even delivery processes.

Kiwi has everything I would ever want from a client—enthusiastic and capable colleagues, daily tech challenges and friendly honest communication which works perfectly both ways. It's great to see what we have done together during those 4 years and how we have recreated the whole search experience on desktop and mobile. The only thing I do not like about Kiwi is that they are not permanently in Bratislava so we could play squash together more often.
