AI Copilot & App Development
We have years of experience building AI-enabled apps with a proven process.
Get StartedWhat to expect
Our Delivery Process
- Realizing an app for the first time? If you approach us with your challenge we guide you on a clear iterative path going though discovery, validation, lean implementation and optimization.
- Overwhelmed by managing a product team? You will appreciate the leadership experience we have working with design and development teams.
- Tired of massive budget overruns? By partnering with you on a proven path we help you minimize the risks that come with any software-based product.
Kick-off Workshop
A one day workshop with your entire team gives us in-depth insights into your point of view and learnings. We establish a common working mode and define what success means for us as a team. A key task of the workshop is to map out the current and desired customer journey for your product or service. Together we then review the product status and go deep into any existing designs, code and delivery pipelines.
App Prototyping Sprint
Prototyping your app ideas is the most cost-effective and fastest way to validate your assumptions. Within a few days we iterate through stages from discovery to prototype implementation and user testing. Basis for the discovery phase is the customer journey we identified in our initial workshop. The goal is to come up with a prototype which is the foundation for the first minimum app implementation.
Launch Sprint
Minimum Viable Product (MVP) is a loaded term - we define it as the minimum version of the app that can be launched to real users. Based on the validated prototypes for the initial app we help you develop the first native or web-based version of your product. Once the initial MVP is launched we keep iterating in the same mode with every major new feature by first prototyping and user testing and then implementing lean feature versions.
Iterative Optimization Sprints
The first launch of your app is minimal in order to reduce risk and receive real user feedback as early as possible. Actively listening to the feedback and reacting in the form of continuous optimizations is crucial. Before experimenting with new features, every MVP phase should be followed by careful optimization and bug fixing.
We don't start from scratch
Our App Packages
Embedded AI Assistants & Copilots
Integrate a GPT-powered conversational interface directly into your app. We will design and train a custom chatbot or copilot, hook it up to your backend via our LLM Ops stack, and ensure seamless hand-offs between AI and human support.
On-Device Personalization & Recommendations
Leverage on-device or cloud-based machine learning to deliver personalized content, product suggestions, and UI adaptations in real time. We handle data pipelines, model selection, and integration so every user sees exactly what they need.
AI Voice & Speech Interface
Add natural voice controls and accessibility features with AI. We build real-time speech-to-text, text-to-speech, and voice command flows using Whisper, Elevenlabs or your chosen stack—plus conversational fallbacks and analytics to ensure a seamless hands-free experience.
AI-Powered Media Generation
Embed on-demand image, video or audio generation directly in your app. We integrate leading generative models (DALL·E, Veo-3, FLUX, Whisper and more) so users can create custom visuals and voiceovers without leaving the interface—complete with moderation and provenance tracking.
App Signup and Login
We have standard components for user signup via email, phone number or third-parties like Facebook, Twitter or Google. The look and feel can be fully customized but you save precious time building backend integrations and ensuring the components are secure.
Payment in your App
We have implemented a range of payment options both for web and mobile apps. Our components for Stripe, Paypal and WorldPay get you ready to accept payments from customers in reduced time. If your requirements allow for mobile in-app purchase on iOS and Android we can help you benefit from increased conversion rates.
Mobile forms that convert
Forms are boring but sometimes there is no way around them. We ensure your users don't get stuck in them and optimize your conversions for completion. We have built complex forms for e-commerce checkouts, research surveys, insurance signups and more.
Remarkable maps for your app
We help you create a remarkable map experience for your apps on web and mobile. From data overlays to easy to grasp directions to animated camera movements we can deliver. If you are looking to build an app in real estate, travel and tourism, geo-based research or navigation, maps will be at the center of the user experience.
End-to-end encryption for your app
Is your app working with sensitive medical, legal or propietary data? We have ready-to-use components to ensure your user's data is end-to-end encrypted. In collaboration with Heidelberg University we have developed a framework for handling of medical data gathered in research surveys.
Internationalization of your app
You have traction in your home market and plan to go global? We helped products succeed at the complex task of internationalizing their apps. You will not only have to localize any existing assets and user facing components but also have to put a continuous process in place. Every future change to the app has to go through translation and review processes.
Solutions we delivered
A Native Control System for High-Fashion Wearable Tech
For Studio XO, the innovators behind Lady Gaga's Flying Dress, we developed the native app and IoT backend to control their creations. This project showcases our ability to build highly reliable, real-time control portals for mission-critical, bespoke hardware experiences.
Zappy: An Essential Tool for Asynchronous Team Collaboration
We built Zappy, a best-in-class native macOS utility designed to make team collaboration faster and clearer. This tool is a perfect example of our philosophy: creating highly-performant, intuitive software that solves a critical operational need—in this case, effective asynchronous communication.
Daimler - An Intelligent Sales Portal
We transformed the sales workflow for a leading automotive manufacturer by building an intelligent CRM portal. By unifying real-time sales data, customer histories, and predictive analytics into a single iPad interface, we empowered their team with the insights needed to make smarter, faster decisions.
Bringing Workflow Automation to iOS for Zapier
We partnered with Zapier to bring their powerful workflow automation platform to a native iOS experience. Our work, from user research to MVP, focused on translating complex automation logic into an intuitive mobile interface, empowering users to take control of their workflows from anywhere.
