From idea to App Store in 12 weeks.
We build consumer mobile apps that people actually use every day. Engineered for retention from the first screen, not just downloads.
Downloads mean nothing
The hard part isn't getting people to download your app. It's getting them to come back tomorrow. And the day after that.
Day-1 to Day-30 retention is brutal
The average consumer app loses 77% of users within 3 days. If your onboarding doesn’t hook people immediately, your CAC is wasted.
Speed to market matters more than features
In consumer, the first mover with a good-enough product beats the slow mover with a perfect one. Every week you’re not live is a week your competitors are learning.
Engagement loops are hard to retrofit
Push notifications, social features, streaks, and habit loops need to be architected from the start. Bolting them on later rarely works.
How we build for retention
We don’t just ship apps. We ship engagement machines designed to turn first-time users into daily actives.
Onboarding Engineered for Activation
Every onboarding flow is mapped to an activation event. We design for the moment the user first experiences value — and we make it happen fast.
Push & Notification Strategy
Habit-forming notification loops designed to drive re-engagement without annoying users. Personalized triggers based on user behavior, not generic blasts.
Social & Viral Mechanics
Friend graphs, activity feeds, sharing flows, and invite mechanics that turn your users into your growth engine.
Real-Time Features
Live check-ins, real-time feeds, instant messaging, and concurrent event handling. Built for the spikes that consumer apps demand.
Analytics from Day One
Retention cohorts, funnel tracking, and engagement metrics instrumented before launch. You’ll know exactly where users drop off and why.
8-Week MVP Option
For simpler consumer products, we can get you from concept to App Store in 8 weeks. Validate with real users, then iterate based on data.
