Compliance documentation is part of the scope from day one, not a sign-off after launch. The scope is defined by your auditors, not by us.
Compliance mapped before the first sprint
HIPAA-compliant healthcare systems delivered
Patient-facing apps and portals for healthcare organizations
HIPAA-compliant by design. Patients and families need more than a booking screen on their phone. They need a mobile layer that connects them to their care between visits, not only during them.
What we build
The work has a consistent shape: a patient-facing layer that connects to existing care operations. The starting point is always what the patient needs on their phone.
Patient-facing mobile apps
Native iOS and Android apps that give patients on-demand access to care tools, communications, and health resources.
Wrappers over existing systems
A clean mobile layer over your EHR, CMS, and patient portal, connected through standards like HL7 without replacing the back end.
Scheduling and communications
Multi-tenant scheduling with resource management and booking conflict handling, plus SMS, email, push, and in-system alerts.
Cross-platform parity and stabilization
Bring an Android build to iOS feature parity, or stabilize a live app that is generating crash reports, as a defined engagement.
Member and provider portals
Web portals with authenticated patient and provider access, administrative interfaces, and provider directory functionality.
Documented HIPAA and PCI compliance
EHR scheduling integration
Android parity, no restart
Capacity for specific services
Patient-facing scheduling only works if it reflects real availability from your existing systems. We design the integration and conflict-handling logic together.
Multi-source booking conflicts handled at architecture stage
Double-booking handled gracefully across sources
Cross-platform parity is a defined scope. We assess what exists, identify the gaps, and build what is missing without touching the working version.
Stabilization for apps generating crash reports
Targeted feature addition without a full rebuild
Component-level work is a normal engagement shape. We scope the services you need, build to your architecture, and hand back cleanly to your team.
Built to your architecture and compliance standards

Which engagement fits you
Different starting points call for different work. Here is where most healthcare teams land.
Extend an existing app
You have a working product and need targeted feature work or crash fixes. We build to your architecture, then hand back to your team.
Wrap existing systems
Your EHR, portal, and CMS are fine. You need a clean patient-facing mobile layer over them, without replacing the back end.
Build a new product
You are starting from zero. We run a fixed-scope discovery first, then a native iOS and Android build with compliance planned from the first sprint.
How an engagement works
Every engagement starts with a fixed-scope discovery. We do not estimate a build before we understand the patient workflow, the existing systems, and the compliance constraints.
