Arbisoft augments staff in development of web crawlers to collect and store data from policy websites. They’ve also helped audit a data ingestion system and assisted with several other development projects.
Revenue has jumped from zero to $1 million in part due to Arbisoft’s contributions and web crawling proficiency. Leading development of critical components, their team has remained flexible to accommodate needs around scalability. They continue to foster trust as an essential development asset.
A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this
client over the phone. Below is an edited
transcript.
BACKGROUND
Introduce your business and what you do there.
We’re a national trade association focused on changing U.S. energy policies to create a future of secure, clean, and affordable energy. I’m the VP of engineering and product development, focusing on leading our software development team to build a particular product.
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
What challenge were you trying to address with Arbisoft?
We were looking for a team who had deep expertise in web crawling, specifically with automated systems that extract content from hundreds of external websites. We needed someone with the flexibility to quickly scale up a team.
SOLUTION
What was the scope of their involvement?
They’ve helped us develop individual web crawlers for collecting and sourcing data (e.g., PDFs, website text) from a range of important policy websites. Web crawling is the process of building automated bots to collect data from public websites in a structured format. We go through this process on a daily, weekly, and monthly basis, so it takes a lot of expertise to orchestrate the entire system. We also have to validate that the data sets are complete and accurate before storing them in one place and performing post processing.
They’ve also added QA engineers to the project to help us with auditing our data ingestion system. They’ve helped us make decisions around certain technologies from a project management and technical leadership standpoint. They’ve augmented our team for short-term, complicated needs that require a lot of people.
They’ve done all of the software development. They’ve used the Amazon Web Services (AWS) infrastructure and a range of Google Cloud services. We’re used Scrapy for web crawling and they’ve also helped us with our Python and Ruby on Rails application. They’re familiar with technologies like MongoDB and Elasticsearch.
What is the team composition?
I’ve worked with one of Arbisoft’s team members longer than anyone at our organization, so I think of him as part of our team. He’s been leading the relationship we’ve had over the last five years as a trusted team member for our big product. I’ve also had a relationship with their CEO and founder. We had about 10 of their people initially, but now we have two as part of our core team.
How did you come to work with Arbisoft?
I had a chance to meet their CEO when we were trying to make a decision about which company to use for this particular work. He’s a very smart guy and someone had also recommended him. One of their biggest contracts involved supporting a prominent search website that utilizes web crawling, so that reassured us that they were the right team.
How much have you invested with them?
We’ve spent $500,000.
What is the status of this engagement?
We started working together in March 2013 and the relationship is ongoing. The relationship began with one specific project, but it’s branched off to others over the last five years. They’re an asset to our company and part of our software development team, assisting us with any problems we have.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
We had zero revenue when we first engaged with them, but we’re now at about $1 million in annual recurring revenue. This is largely due to the system they’ve helped build and the data they’ve helped collect as the core value proposition for the product we’re selling. For context, we now have more data than the largest online encyclopedia as a result of leveraging Arbisoft’s expertise.
How did Arbisoft perform from a project management standpoint?
I trust my main contact with a lot of things that are critical to our application. He’s led the development of our platform’s major components. The project management is fantastic. We do a video call every morning and also use Slack and Trello.
What did you find most impressive about them?
I’m impressed with their ability to scale up additional staff. They’re definitely web crawling experts.
Are there any areas they could improve?
They do really great work. The only challenge we’ve faced is that their team is based in Pakistan. Dealing with the time difference sometimes makes synchronizing our communication difficult and there’s also an occasional language barrier. However, we answer this through extra iterations and more communication to ensure that we’re on the same page regarding what we need to implement.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
Make sure you’re very clear about goals and the metrics you’re using to measure performance so that everybody on the team understands what they are and why they’re important. This will set you up for success.
