We treat clients as friends. Our strategy depends on making your projects successful. So let's get to know each other.
Your device creates unique user experiences. So your results should be beautiful, purposeful, powerful, and just for you.
We can do all the implementation, or work with your team. It's part of our "plays well with others" corporate policy.
We employ an Agile and Lean iterative development approach and keep quality high by building a software immune system.
When Disney contracted with special effects creator LiveSpark to build a one-of-a-kind fire and water show, Concrete Interactive constructed a software toolkit for a brand new way of controlling fire that moves right in time to the music.
Dr. Harvey Karp perfected the Five-S method of helping babies sleep, and helping parents too. Concrete Interactive built the back-end infrastructure for the Snoo Smart Sleeper - a bassinet that hears when babies cry and rocks them back to sleep. With our total software immune system, now everyone can sleep a little easier.
The iconic musician-turned-tech maven created a line of style-heavy wearables, cameras and audio accessories. Concrete Interactive built the i.am+ platform and foto.sosho app, a unique camera-integrated photo experience.
At the heart of everything we do is attention to detail. We focus first on the human experience, delivering software that improves life. Here are some aspects of the service we offer. Concrete Interactive is a custom development firm, so if you don't see something you need, .
PRODUCT INNOVATION
When it comes to hardware, there's no such thing as old hat. Even technology that has been been around a while is now placed in new cohtexts like mobile, appliance, even auto. The market has higher user quality expectations than ever. When it comes to making something new, choose the experts who've done it a while to create the truly revolutionary today.
MOBILE
Too many great hardware products ship with crappy apps. They get terrible reviews, low ratings, and what was a brilliant product launch turns into lackluster sales once the initial hype wears off. Consider your software effort as part of a wholistic user experience to ensure that your iOS and Android apps work as well as your device.
SERVER
As in life, server communication is key. Our back-end development approach starts small but anticipates large-scale, with potentially millions of devices connecting. API versioning, firmware updates, monitoring, metrics, administration: back-end components like these work together to keep your hardware usable for its lifetime.
TESTING
From user testing to quality assurance, we make sure product workflows perform as expected. Once all automated tests are confirmed to pass, real live humans run through workflows and deliver testing reports. When bugs are found we add new tests that cover them so they don't show up in future releases.
DESIGN
Beautiful hardware design deserves a beautiful user interface. Can we simplify a workflow? Can we navigate more smoothly? Software design is truly at the interface of the human being and the device they are controlling. We give it the prominent attention it deserves.
QUALITY
Hardware / software interfaces involve building new technologies. As seasoned innovators, Concrete Interactive has standardized project estimation and quality. We measure each feature in terms of three factors: size, risk and difficulty. We stand by our work and fix bugs for free.
