Grabango is a free service offered by grocery and convenience stores that lets shoppers skip the checkout line and walk out using the Grabango app. Facing the challenge of delivering a retail MVP app for key clients in just three months, they turned to us. With our nearshore staff augmentation services, we provided a specialized React Native team to make it happen on time.

01

/ Challenge

Grabango's challenge was the critical need to launch a high-fidelity MVP mobile app in just three months. This app was essential for demonstrating their revolutionary checkout-free technology to key clients and kicking off pilot programs, but they lacked the specialized in-house team to deliver it on that timeline.

02

/ Goal

Put a working app in the hands of key clients within three months. It had to support multiple retailers on one platform, know which store each shopper was in, and send a receipt the moment they walked out.

03

/ Solution

Our solution was a strategic Staff Augmentation engagement, deploying an elite nearshore team of senior React Native engineers to meet the ambitious timeline. Working in lockstep with Grabango’s internal teams and under the direct leadership of their VP of Technology, our engineers became a true extension of their workforce. This seamless integration was the key to delivering the high-fidelity MVP on time.

04

/ Outcome

The MVP shipped on time, in three months. It's a multi-tenant app that detects which store a shopper is in and sends the receipt on the way out.

We built families together

Modamily's family-matching app was live and carrying technical debt. A React Native and Node pod stabilized it, then moved to a monthly retainer that has kept it running for years.

We supercharged revenue cycles

Adonis needed scraping and RPA work its in-house team had no room for. A senior nearshore pod with healthtech experience joined their workflow and helped the AI revenue cycle platform release faster.

We accelerated going to the movies

AMC Theatres gave itself one year to bring assigned seating to Android. A tech lead and three senior engineers built it alongside AMC's team, with real-time seat locking, and delivered on schedule.

We had trucks grow air wings

Growing through acquisitions, Fleetworthy needed senior .NET engineers who fit a highly collaborative culture. Seven out of ten candidates we presented were hired, and the pod has stayed for years.

We tinderized finding a home

A founder wanted apartment hunting without filters. In FlicFlat, renters take a short quiz, the app scores every listing in real time, and the best matches show up first in a swipe feed.

We gamified coaching

Ibis had an early version of idea+, its leadership coaching tool. We rebuilt it in Node.js and React around game mechanics and connected it to the LMS platforms companies already use.

We revolutionized alternative data

Kamba ran its alternative data business through manual consulting work. We built Kamba Data Exchange, a SaaS marketplace where financial firms test datasets in real time before buying.

We wholesaled caviar

Petrossian handled every restaurant and hotel order by hand. Our Magento developers built wholesale into the existing store, with automated inventory and billing, while retail kept selling.

We built live trivia fun

The agency behind HQ Trivia had milestones to hit and no time for a long hiring process. Our engineers helped ship key features and live streaming, and part of the team stayed on to maintain the app.

We reinvented the resume

HelloHive gives students a free resume builder and employers a way to recruit them. We helped build the platform, staff it, and hire for it. Disney, BlackRock, and American Express use it today.

We baked an online store

Levain Bakery needed a full redesign and a move to the latest Adobe Commerce, with every integration intact. We treated it as a new build and delivered a faster, more stable store.

We simplified client finances

Altair Advisers' client portal was outdated, and no one had defined what should replace it. Our discovery workshops set the direction, and we delivered a full redesign and design system ready to build.

We streamlined toll systems

Bestpass combines tolls from more than 40 authorities into one account for commercial fleets. Its teams needed senior .NET engineers, so we embedded a nearshore pod across them. The partnership is still going.

We shared decision making wisdom

A breast cancer surgeon wanted patients to understand every surgical option and feel empowered to make informed decisions. For Toliman Health, we built Breast Advocate, a free HIPAA compliant app with evidence based guidance and a patient community.

We delivered hyper-local PR

Headliner wanted PR that small businesses could afford. Our engineers helped build a platform where anyone can write a press release, pick local outlets, and send it for one flat fee.

Two founders with medical backgrounds brought early designs for a telehealth platform. We built MomentMD's mobile app and web portal, with video visits, scheduling, and chat, all HIPAA compliant.

We made staying really different

Furnished Quarters had no tech team and too many disconnected systems. We gave them a booking platform where guests reserve and sign in a single visit, synced with Salesforce.

Dynamic Resources builds retail spaces for brands worldwide. Working from their designs, our team rebuilt the mobile app crews use on-site and the portal where every project gets tracked.

We shook hands across borders

An AI powered referral exchange platform for real estate agents, built from design to launch and supported ever since.

We made cyber complexity click

Years of quick fixes had slowed NetDiligence's eRiskHub down. We rebuilt the portal with role-based views, better search, and a drag-and-drop builder, so admins edit dashboards without a developer.

We flexed mobile fitness

SoulCycle had a new Android app and the UI for its At-Home device on the roadmap at the same time. Our mobile, backend, and QA engineers joined the team and kept releases on schedule.

We guided digital adventures
