We're Pixo, a software development and digital strategy company headquartered in Champaign-Urbana, Illinois, right in the University of Illinois Research Park. We've been at this since 1998, and in that time we've built more than 1,500 custom applications, websites, databases, and digital tools for clients across the country — all while staying deeply rooted in the Midwest region that shaped how we think about our work.
We build custom web applications, custom CMS-powered websites, mobile applications, custom databases and dashboards, embedded device software, digital product prototypes, and custom AI tools. Our engineers and designers work across a broad technical stack — AWS, C#, Node.js, React, WordPress, Drupal, PHP, Timber, Symfony, Docker, MySQL, TypeScript, and Python — and we choose the right combination for each client rather than pushing a one-size-fits-all platform.
Put simply, we build software that everyone can use. That's not a tagline we picked for marketing — it's the standard we hold ourselves to on every project. We believe accessibility is a responsibility, not a feature or a checkbox, so we offer dedicated WCAG 2.1, Level AA compliance services and bake inclusive design into our process from day one rather than bolting it on at the end. Whether we're designing for a researcher, a farmer, a state agency employee, or a first-time site visitor, we want the experience to work for them — fully and comfortably.
We're proud to be a certified Women's Business Enterprise through the State of Illinois and the Women's Business Enterprise National Council. Our leadership includes CEO, President, and co-owner Melinda Miller and Director of Product Strategy and co-owner Jason Berg, alongside a close-knit team of strategists, designers, engineers, and project managers, plus a few trusted outside partners in UX design, project management, and digital marketing who we love teaming up with.
If your team needs software to make work easier, we'd love to talk.

A university hired Pixo to audit a website’s content and interview stakeholders for a website redesign initiative. The team also facilitated two content creation workshops and built a site map for stakeholders.
The client used Pixo’s outputs as the blueprint for the websites the university created, indicating the team met expectations. Their members were organized and always ready to work with the client. They were knowledgeable and ensured everything ran smoothly, resulting in a fruitful engagement.

BACKGROUND
Please describe your company and position.
I am the Assistant Dean, Mktg & Communications of University of Illinois | College of Applied Health Sciences
Describe what your company does in a single sentence.
The University of Illinois College of Applied Health Sciences' mission: To promote culturally relevant individual and community health and well-being across the lifespan, facilitate optimal living with disability, and foster the development of livable communities in a diverse society through learning, discovery, and engagement.
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
What specific goals or objectives did you hire Pixo to accomplish?
Interview AHS stakeholders for a better understanding of desired outcomes for a website redesign
Conduct a content inventory on our college's website (including academic departments)

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.
The general project scope was to conduct a full content inventory of the College of Applied Health Sciences' website and offer suggestions for next steps. The site was sorely out of date and a fresh approach to content and UX was needed.
Pixo interviewed stakeholders, conducted a content inventory, held at least two workshops with the marketing team and other participants regarding content creation, and presented a site map and other recommendations to a larger group of stakeholders, including the college's dean and department heads, among others.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?
Their recommendations and site map are the blueprint for the websites we're currently developing with the university's new Web Center of Expertise.
Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?
Pixo's team was very organized and ready, always, to work with us (if anything, our team were the ones needing to be kept to a schedule!). They were knowledgeable, the deliverables were extremely useful, and their team had a sense of humor about this rather culturally complex project.
What was your primary form of communication with Pixo?
Virtual Meeting
Email or Messaging App
What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
The project with Pixo was one of the few experiences I've had working with a team exclusively in a virtual environment where things ran smoothly. There were few, if any, misunderstandings, miscmmunications, or unnecessary meetings. I have no doubt whatsoever that they are equally as effective in person, but the virtual nature of the project absolutely worked for us.
Are there any areas for improvement or something Pixo could have done differently?
Pixo did the best possible job with us and the (very) small team we had at the time.

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.
As an Engineering firm, we found it difficult to keep qualified in-house programmers to support our project needs. Therefore, Pixo has provided us with as-needed web development programming and software support since 2016. During that time, our main project with Pixo has been their development of a web tool building framework and components that we use to deliver engineering results and data to our clients in the form of customized data visualization websites.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?
Using the framework that Pixo has developed for us, we have been able to deliver online data-visualization web sites/tools for over 50 clients over the past 7 years. This includes 9 commercial airport clients, 17 state departments of transportation, and numerous cities and municipalities. On the airport side, our airport-based visualization tools are making our engineering results and pavement management data accessible to over 1200 individual airports in the US and other countries.
Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?
Pixo has always been very responsive to our needs. And since they have provided us with on-demand programming support, they have allowed me to be part of the development and creative process from day one.

The only downside over the years is that there has been some employee turnover that has caused changes to the project team. But I understand that as they are in a competitive business. But Pixo always made sure that our team was restocked with talented people.

To migrate the distributed work of the BAS bibliographic and editorial production team from an antiquated system (FileMaker) producing records on individual PCs to then be sent by email for central editing, compilation, and export in CSV, into a modern, streamlined production framework with a centralized controlled-access web-based interface to increase producitivty of the team and of myself as editor, with XML output compatible with our online hosts (EBSCO)

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.
A customized 20-year-old application in FileMaker whose original programmers were long gone was being used by the whole team of Associate Editors of the Bibliography of Asian Studies published by The Association for Asian Studies to produce and edit hundreds of thousands of bibliographic records for inclusion in the online BAS hosted for subscribers on EBSCO.
Over the years, the old system became less and less effective, productivity and accuracy suffered, data integrity was being lost, and our online database hosting service (EBSCO) was not able to assist in quality control, and was intending to migrate ALL of their databases to XML input, rather than the BAS's old FileMaker output in CSV. The parent Board of Directors of the AAS was losing patience with the diminishing quality of the product and the expense of producing it with such an ineffective production framework and tool.
PIXO was contracted to work with us and with EBSCO to design a much more streamlined data production application (with controlled-access online data entry instead of individual PC-based FileMaker app), with a more efficient user interface for the Associate Editors and for me as the Editor of their records, that would maximize the value of each keystroke, use intelligent data validation in each field, create one-click data export from from the server to EBSCO, and improve our overall productivity of the whole BAS operation, with XML output compatible with EBSCO's data-integration setup for bibliographic information.
In the first phase, PIXO worked with the existing dataset (over 130 fields of interlocking data in nearly 1 million records in FileMaker and CSV) to understand the field structures and dependencies, and modeled new data structures for us that better matched the bibliographic needs of BAS end-users and their searching practices. Then they programmed the new web application for us, provided our team training in its use, and ran pilot runs and testing in a Staging server, using all the re-mapped migrated data. The XML output of this pilot data was then tested by EBSCO and approved for compatibility.
PIXO then launched our production server, which they continue to run on AWS on our behalf. Later phases included lots of debugging and algorithms for fixing internal problems in the legacy data and sessions with me and the Associate Editors team for tweaks to the UI to further improve everyone's efficiency. Although we have greatly increased productivity in the new Pixo setup, we continue to partner with PIXO for a large set of future enhancements and tweaks to optimize this complex system even further. S, and which utilizes PIXO as our programming partner to create, enhance and maintain our online distributed bibliographic production platform for the BAS
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?
Annual production (and accuracy) of records created for the BAS has skyrocketed since implementation of the system PIXO created for and with us. Board of Directors is very happy with the results and with the return on investment. End-users of the BAS are now getting more accurate and up-to-date research support bibliographic data from the BAS, and susbscriptions have increased.
Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?
We work collaboratively to establish specific sub-tasks and needs and to timeline each of them, and they always met those expectation and were proactive in reporting challenges or unexpected hiccups. They've been amazingly responsive whenever we uncover something that needs their attention outside the planned development timeline.
What was your primary form of communication with Pixo?
Virtual Meeting
Email or Messaging App
What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
The BAS is a highly specialized product -- I was very impressed with how PIXO dove into the complex and interlocking data structures needed to make it work properly, and how quickly they grasped and even anticipated when those needs would turn into in terms of the application they have been building.
Are there any areas for improvement or something Pixo could have done differently?
None that I can think of now

Our Story
The values that guide us are simple, and we try to live them every day: people come first, ahead of process. We're honest and transparent with each other, talking through hard decisions together instead of behind closed doors. We see ourselves as being on our clients' team — dreaming with them, educating them, and helping them make smart decisions, not just executing orders. We demand quality of ourselves and of each other. We take initiative, speaking up when something needs addressing.
What Sets Us Apart
We're genuinely on your team
Our internal values — honesty, transparency, taking initiative, demanding quality of each other — aren't just posters on a wall; they shape how we show up for clients too. We dream with you, push back when something doesn't serve your users, and tell you the truth even when it's not the easy answer.
We treat accessibility as a responsibility
We offer dedicated WCAG 2.1 AA compliance services and build inclusive design into every project from day one, not as something we tack on at the end. It's a stance that takes more care, and we think the people who actually use your product are worth that care.
We don't hand you off between vendors
We don't hand you off between vendors. Strategy, design, and development all live under one roof at Pixo, with the same team carrying a project from research through launch. That continuity means we're a partner who actually understands the why behind the what by the time we start building.
