Mobile App Development
in Austin
Austin Roots, Global Reach
We're not a remote team that happens to have an Austin address. Our founder lives here. We understand Austin's tech ecosystem—the startups on South Congress, the enterprises on the Domain, the VC scene on Sixth Street.
But we also build products that scale globally. We've shipped IoT platforms for Belkin, e-commerce systems for enterprise retailers, and mobile apps used by millions. Whether you're a funded startup looking to ship your MVP or an enterprise launching a new digital product, we bring the same senior-level engineering to every project.
Deeply Rooted in the Austin Tech Community
Austin isn't just where we work; it's where we build. From the vibrant startups in East Austin to the established tech giants in North Austin's "Silicon Hills," we are integrated into the fabric of this city. We've seen Austin transform into a global tech hub, and we're here to help the next generation of ATX innovators lead the way.
Whether you're grabbing coffee on South Congress or attending a meetup at Capital Factory, you'll find our team engaged in the local ecosystem. We don't just build apps; we help grow the businesses that make Austin unique.
I interviewed over 12 firms. What stood out was Shane's technical expertise—he came back with incredibly thoughtful questions about my needs and opportunities. He was also very candid about time and costs.

Years Building Apps
Local Presence
Test Coverage
They were part of our product team, rather than just an outsourced delivery engagement. When we ran into issues, they could help us brainstorm the solution.
How We Work
Validate First
We start with Product Liftoff™—a 4-week process that validates your idea, creates interactive prototypes, and produces a roadmap that actually works. If you already have validated designs, we'll audit them for technical feasibility before writing code.
Architecture That Scales
Our architects design systems before developers start coding. Database schemas, API contracts, infrastructure diagrams. We've built platforms handling thousands of concurrent users—and we've rescued apps that crumbled under their first traffic spike.
Ship Every Two Weeks
2-week sprints with working demos. You see progress, test features, and steer the product. Full transparency: access to our project management tools, Slack channels, and the engineers building your product.
Launch and Beyond
App Store submission, production deployment, post-launch monitoring—we handle all of it. But launch is day one. We stick around for feature iterations, scaling challenges, and whatever comes next.
iOS, Android, or Both?
The "native vs. cross-platform" debate misses the point. The right choice depends on your product, timeline, and users.
For most Austin startups, React Native lets us ship faster with a single codebase while maintaining native performance. For hardware-intensive products, we architect custom native bridges. For apps requiring specific platform features, we build native.
We don't have a one-size-fits-all answer because your product isn't one-size-fits-all.
Our Stack
Technologies We Master
We choose tools that give you leverage, not tools that are trendy.
Is This Right for You?
We're a good fit if:
You're an Austin startup that's raised funding and needs to ship a quality product fast. You're an enterprise launching a new digital product and can't afford junior dev mistakes. You want a local partner who can meet face-to-face when it matters.
We're probably not a good fit if:
You're looking for the cheapest option. You want to micromanage every technical decision. You need a team of 50 developers next week.
