Billingo, Számlázz.hu (Hungarian invoicing systems)
Related service Custom software · everything else
DEFINITION
The two largest Hungarian online invoicing services. Both automatically submit invoices to NAV Online Számla (mandatory for B2B), handle Hungarian VAT rates (27% / 18% / 5%), reverse-charge for EU B2B, and Hungarian / EU / third-country buyers correctly. E-commerce and SaaS API integration: 1-2 days of development. Typical pricing: Számlázz.hu from HUF 1490/mo, Billingo from HUF 990/mo. Often better than building a custom invoicing engine for SMBs.
- Firmware→
Low-level software that controls a hardware device · microcontroller, router, IoT sensor. Typical languages are C, Rust, MicroPython; OTA-updateability and signing are the critical parts.
- IoT OTA update→
Over-The-Air firmware update for IoT devices · signed image, staged rollout, rollback switch, telemetry. Lets you update a deployed fleet without physical access.
- HSM (Hardware Security Module)→
Specialised key-storage hardware · the private key never leaves the HSM, every cryptographic operation runs inside it. Foundation of banking and fintech integrations.
- OPC-UA→
Industrial communication protocol (IEC 62541) between PLCs, SCADA systems, and higher-level IT. The 2026 standard for manufacturing IT/OT integration.
- Modbus→
One of the oldest industrial protocols (since 1979) · PLCs, sensors, power meters communicate over it. TCP and RTU (serial) variants exist.
- CRDT (Conflict-free Replicated Data Type)→
Conflict-free Replicated Data Type. A data structure (counter, set, map, ordered text) that mathematically guarantees that if many peers edit it offline and sync in any order, the result is the same everywhere with no manual conflict resolution. Classic demo: the synced multiplayer cursor, where colleagues type in the same Figma or Notion document at the same time, characters do not overwrite each other, and cursors move live. Problem solved: last-write-wins and manual merge are weak primitives for collaborative editing, offline-first apps, and replicas running at the edge. Two schools: state-based (CvRDT, states can be merged) and operation-based (CmRDT, operations are commutative). In production: Yjs, Automerge, the Loro Rust library, plus Liveblocks and PartyKit as a service. The price: bigger payloads (operation logs) and you need garbage collection.
