How we approach Mobile app development
One codebase or native?
Most apps work best with React Native or Flutter: faster to build, cheaper to maintain and the same on both platforms. We recommend native Swift or Kotlin only when your app truly needs it, and explain why.
Designed before it is built
You test a clickable prototype first, so changes happen when they are cheap and the app you launch is the one users want.
Store-ready from the start
We follow App Store and Google Play guidelines throughout, prepare listings and handle review, so launch day is not a surprise.
After launch
We monitor crashes and usage, keep the app current with new OS versions and keep shipping improvements.
Remote, but close to Chicago
Time-zone overlap
We overlap with Central Time mornings and offer flexible shifts for live stand-ups, with daily written updates in between.
HIPAA and US state privacy laws
For healthcare we build to HIPAA requirements: role-based access, encryption, audit logs and HIPAA-eligible cloud hosting, with BAAs in place for vendors that touch PHI. For other products we follow US privacy laws such as CCPA, and we sign NDAs before any work starts.
Billing
Invoices in US dollars (USD). Typical senior rates are $25 to $49 (USD) per hour, or a fixed price for a defined scope.
Built for Chicago's key sectors
Chicago's logistics, manufacturing and financial services companies come to us for software that connects to the systems they already run: TMS and ERP integrations, document automation, dashboards and AI assistants for operations teams.
SaaS and enterprise software
Fierce competition rewards fast product iteration and AI features. Customer and field apps are where we usually start here.
Healthcare
Providers need HIPAA-aware portals, scheduling and claims automation. Apps for customers, staff and partners, built on one codebase.
Financial services
Banks and fintechs modernise onboarding, fraud checks and payments. We design and ship iOS and Android apps for teams in this sector.
Retail and e-commerce
Direct-to-consumer brands live on conversion-focused stores and paid ads. Customer and field apps are where we usually start here.
