Business context
Yousif, a Kuwait-based entrepreneur, set out to build Wafaa, a contract creation and signing platform localized for the Middle East. He vetted his freelance team personally. Background checks. Reviews. Portfolios. Solid CVs, good references, no red flags. 12 months in, Wafaa was 65% done. Too raw for investors. Too rough for paying users. Runway shrinking. The team wasn't bad - they were freelancers. Juggling 2–3 projects at once. One ghosted mid-sprint. By the time Yousif called Radency, he'd almost signed with another vendor.
"You have one day. Show me what you can do."

Founder and CEO at Wafaa

"By the time founders call us, they've usually been burned once. They don't need another pitch, they need proof the next team won't do the same thing. That's why we audit before we start. With Wafaa, Yousif saw the full picture of his codebase before he signed anything. No surprises later."

A contract platform
stuck at 65%
Before Radency stepped in, Wafaa faced four blockers that no amount of additional freelance hours could fix
Legacy
Large portions of legacy code
that couldn't be safely reused
Security
Security gaps
unacceptable for a platform handling legal contracts
Performance
Unoptimized cloud infrastructure
with slow response times across the Middle East
CALCULATIONS
Missing local integrations
Arabic localization, RTL layouts, KNET payments
Radency audits the codebase, handles the issues, and helps Wafaa release
Yousif didn't need more developers. He needed a team accountable for the system, not just the tickets.
01
The 24-hour audit
Radency skipped the slides. In 24 hours, Eduard audited the full codebase against Wafaa's spec. He mapped what was missing, flagged what needed refactoring, called out the real risks, and handed Yousif a roadmap, plus a blunt breakdown of how the delivery process itself had to change.
02
Structure where there was chaos
Set up staging and production environments within the first weeks (so features stopped vanishing). Introduced weekly release cycles, weekly demos, and daily progress reports. Clear ownership on every piece of the platform.
03
90% of the backend rewritten
The platform had been built with mixed coding styles and unstable architecture. Radency engineers rewrote ~90% of the codebase and supported the remaining legacy parts.
04
Security-first rebuild
Wafaa handles legal contracts, so security had to be the foundation, not a final pass. Radency implemented encryption, 2FA, phone verification, VPN and threat checks, and an architecture ready for DoS attacks and enterprise traffic.
05
Custom-built signature microservice
Node.js libraries couldn’t handle contract signature preparation, so we built a separate microservice in TSharp. This ensured correct signature processing and legally compliant PDF generation.
06
80% latency reduction
Moved servers from Frankfurt to Kuwait to put infrastructure closer to users. Average request latency dropped by ~80%.
Results: A contract management platform users can trust
Live and in front of enterprise users in 3 months
Wafaa went from stalled to shipped, with enterprise clients onboarding onto the platform.
Contracts without legal friction
Users can now create, send, and sign contracts independently, without involving lawyers.
Security as a differentiator
Contracts and personal data are protected with strong authentication, encryption, and threat detection, a requirement to compete for enterprise accounts.
Built for the region, ready to scale.
Arabic-first experience, local payment rails, and infrastructure hosted in-region.
“I want extend my thanks to Radency team. They have been great. Eduard was amazing”
From a stalled build to a live product
Radency helped Wafaa solve all issues and successfully enter the market. The platform is now live, fully localized, and trusted by users to create and sign contracts without legal complexity
Before
65% done after 12 months, with shrinking runway
Freelance team juggling multiple projects, one ghosted mid-sprint
No staging environment — features disappearing between sprints
Inconsistent code and architecture with security gaps
After
Live platform with enterprise users onboarding
Embedded team with a Solution Architect owning delivery
Weekly releases with staging and production environments
Security-first platform ready for legally binding contracts
Wafaa, a secure contract creation and signing platform
Wafaa is a contract creation and signing platform built for the Middle East, with global reach. It lets users create, send, and sign legally binding contracts online, without needing a lawyer for everyday agreements
.avif)
01
Contract creation & templates
Users can quickly draft contracts from forms and templates that guide them through hundreds of clauses and conditions.
02
Secure digital signing
Contracts can be signed online with legally binding e-signatures, speeding up workflows from days to minutes.
03
Local payment & verification
Support for local payment systems like KNET and verification services for payments and identity confirmation.
04
Regional compliance & security
Strong authentication, encryption, and verification layers help users trust the platform with sensitive documents.
05
Audit trails & document history
Each contract stores a history of actions — who signed, when, and in what order — giving users confidence in compliance and record keeping.
06
Real-time collaboration & review
Contracts can be reviewed and approved anywhere in real time. All data is stored securely in the cloud, with databases hosted locally in the region.
