# Orange Hill

Orange Hill is a small, senior, AI-native software studio founded by Tihomir Opačić in 2007, with offices in Belgrade (Orange Hill Development d.o.o.) and Vienna (Orange Hill GmbH). It builds and maintains platforms for high-profile clients and runs most of its delivery on AI agents, with people owning direction and the quality bar. Website: https://orangehill.ai

## What Orange Hill does

### 1. AI automation and workflow development

Production systems that take repetitive, rule-based or data-heavy work off a team: processing invoices, qualifying leads, generating compliant documents, monitoring data for anomalies. Multi-agent systems, browser automation, document intelligence and CRM integrations, built on the client's real data and tools, documented and handed over to the client's team.

### 2. AI consultancy and education

Workshops and training for leadership and development teams. Before the session, Orange Hill finds the team's most painful workflow and builds a working prototype around it, so the workshop starts with something real. The goal is independence: teams that can build their own automations and extend their own workflows with AI tools. For development teams this includes AI-native delivery, meaning how to direct coding agents (for example Claude Code) and review their output, which is how Orange Hill itself works.

### 3. Software development

Web applications, mobile apps (iOS and Android, React Native) and APIs. Most web projects combine Photon CMS (Orange Hill's own headless CMS) for the API layer with Next.js on the frontend. Backend in PHP and Laravel, also Node.js.

## How an engagement works

1. **Discovery workshop:** map the problem, find the highest-leverage opportunities, agree on what success looks like in measurable terms.
2. **Prototype first:** for automation, a working prototype on the client's real data before a full build; for software, an architectural prototype and proof of concept; for education, prototypes built around the team's own pain points.
3. **Hand-over:** the client's team is trained to operate, extend and own what was built.

Orange Hill is selective about new engagements. If the fit is not right, it says so.
