Gophers was engaged by Trancis Group, a full-service digital agency, to augment their staff with Golang resources. The project, which ran from February 2019 to January 2020, required immediate expertise in Golang, which Trancis Group lacked in-house. Gophers initially focused on development, but their role expanded to include direct client interaction as the project evolved. The team of five provided by Gophers was proactive in addressing any issues, even providing a backup developer when one fell ill. The partnership cost Trancis Group between $80,000 and $85,000, but the value delivered by Gophers was deemed satisfactory.

A telecommunications company hired Gophers to develop custom software as part of their digital transformation strategy. Gophers was involved in many implementations, including automating a sales funnel app, an online voting app, and a survey and feedback app. The vendor was selected after a competitive interview process, with the decision influenced by their competitive cost and the positive feedback from the interview team. The team composition varied depending on the scope of the project, with Gophers providing between 2-3 developers or setting up entire scrum teams as needed.

Gophers was selected by an AEM implementation company to provide Golang integration for a digital transformation project. The company, which serves many Fortune 500 companies, required Golang resources that they didn't have in-house. Gophers was chosen after an extensive technical interview process that involved three companies from India, Ukraine, and Russia. The project involved using AEM, one of the world's largest CMS, to transform the digital platform for a global client. The Gophers team comprised of a Golang architect, two senior Golang developers, and a junior Golang developer.
