Render Partner: Heroku Migrations & AI Data

Showoff x Render

Showoff named a Render solution partner to build, migrate and maintain modern cloud applications

Irish software engineering and data consultancy becomes Render’s first solution partner based locally in EMEA — pairing its prism. delivery model and AI-and-data expertise with Render’s cloud


CO. WICKLOW, IRELAND – 16 JUNE 2026. Showoff, the Irish software engineering and data consultancy behind digital products for Bentley Motors, British Airways and Local 150, has been named a solution partner by Render, the cloud platform trusted by more than 4.5 million developers worldwide. As a Render solution partner, Showoff will design, build, deploy and maintain client applications on Render — and migrate existing applications onto it — giving customers faster delivery and lower running costs. Showoff expects the partnership to double the number of client projects it delivers this year.

Showoff is Render’s first solution partner based locally in EMEA — and will also deliver Render services for clients in North America, where the platform continues to grow rapidly. Having built production applications since 2012, with more than 300 projects delivered, and with a long history as a Heroku partner, it is a natural step: Showoff already knows how to ship software that stays healthy for years, and Render removes much of the operational work of running it.

From fragmented data to AI that actually works

Founded in 2012 and headquartered in Co. Wicklow, Showoff is a senior team of software engineers and architects who build systems that last. It has delivered more than 300 projects across fintech, medtech, retail, transport, hospitality, automotive, construction, member engagement and enterprise digital transformation, and holds partnerships across the Salesforce, MuleSoft and Stripe ecosystems alongside a long history as a Heroku partner. Showoff is also an Enterprise Ireland client company and a Pledge 1% member.

Showoff’s focus is squarely on AI and data: it builds the clean data foundations that let enterprises deploy Salesforce Agentforce, predictive analytics and intelligent automation with confidence. Its Intelligent Document Processing practice combines OCR and large language models to read large documents — claims, contracts, manifests and statements — extract what matters, and hand the next step to a customer’s systems, all with a human in the loop. Recent work includes a modern member experience for Local 150 of the International Union of Operating Engineers — putting a native iOS and Android app in the hands of 30,000 trade-union members and replacing a legacy My150 Visualforce community with instant feature rollouts, on a Heroku backend integrated with Salesforce — and a multi-year customer-data programme delivering a 360° view of the customer for British Airways.

What the partnership means for customers


Showoff delivers through prism., its outcome-priced model: one brief in, many builds out, landing on the right platform every time — with senior architects orchestrating and a fixed price on the invoice rather than an hourly rate. As a Render solution partner, that work now runs two ways. For new applications, Showoff handles design and development and deploys to Render from day one — a running production system, not a repository and a list of next steps. For existing applications, including those on Heroku or another platform, Showoff plans and runs the migration to Render. After launch it can stay on to maintain the application or hand it to the client’s team, with logs, metrics, deploys and scaling all living in the Render dashboard. Showoff and Render share a belief that infrastructure should disappear, letting companies focus on the value their applications deliver rather than the infrastructure they run on.

Quotes

“Most AI projects don’t fail because of the model — they fail because of the foundation underneath it. That’s the work we’ve always done: turning the data a business already has into applications people can use, so our clients see real outcomes, not just pilots. Becoming a Render solution partner lets us put that engineering on a cloud built for what comes next — whether we’re building something new or migrating it from Heroku. We both believe infrastructure should disappear, so our clients can focus on the value their software delivers.”
— Shane Byrne, CEO and co-founder, Showoff

“We’re excited to welcome Showoff as a Render partner. Their expertise will help more customers build, scale, and bring modern applications to market faster on Render.” 
— Sumi Das, Head of Partnerships and Operations, Render

This Wicklow-based solutions provider is leading the way in the design, build, and deployment of digital products and cloud-based applications.  As an EI client company, we look forward to continuing to support Showoff as they expand into key export markets and build out the business through strategic partnerships in EMEA and North America”
— Amanda Ward, Head of Digital Technologies, Enterprise Ireland
