RapidDev

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am the Chief Operations Officer at ECD Measure. We create better early childhood measurement products to empower early childhood professionals use data effectively.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Rapid Dev, and what were your goals?

We hired Rapid Dev to develop the MVP of our app/portal to monitor the quality of early childhood education settings. We were looking for a team that could work closely with our team to understand requirements and how they translate into new application features.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?

We searched online for app developers and received dozens of proposals. We interviewed 3 other companies. We really appreciated how Matt (CEO) went above and beyond to understand our project needs and prove to us that his company was a good fit. We had multiple calls with him, we appreciated that he made himself available. We also appreciated that he shared specific examples of other apps RapidDev had developed.

Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.

• Phase 1: Project Setup- The RapidDev team first started with a few calls and back-and-forth to understand the functionalities and features we needed.
• Phase 2: App design: created wireframes on Figma
• Phase 3: App development: front end and back-end programming and development in Bubble
• Phase 4: Test & debug- several iterations between our teams to finalize the MVP before launch

How many resources from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

Primary point of contact was project manager, and I worked closely with the lead developer as well. The lead developer was very responsive and collaborative.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?

We've done multiple focus groups and user testing with our new app and have received positive feedback and the usability and features of the app.

Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.

The four phases took slightly longer than originally proposed, but the team was very communicative. During the design phase, we collaborated effectively directly on Figma (through comments). We also used Google Docs and Loom (video/screen sharing) really effectively to communicate and make sure we were all talking about the same thing. We were very impressed with the management and communication on this project!

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

The RapidDev team was very patient with our team, who has no expertise in app development. They really helped translate our vision into a reality! We've worked with another developer in the past who did not go the extra mile to make sure we were all on the same page. We were really impressed with how the RapidDev team would iterate with us to make sure we were happy with the end product.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

When timelines shifted, it could've been helpful to get status updates and revised timelines.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I'm the Founder and CEO of Our Leg Up, a VC-backed start-up which develops financial products to diminish wealth inequality.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Rapid Dev, and what were your goals?

Rapid Dev needed to design and build a landing page for a novel financial product. We needed to both educate potential clients and capture their interest, certainly not a simple task. This project was also under very tight deadlines as Demo Day for investment was fast approaching - an opportunity we couldn't miss.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?

Matt was knowledgeable about the landing page design and converted and understood our requirements well. I could sense the genuine passion in his engagements. I wanted a custom design and he provided options to make this work, even though we had a tight budget. It was a clear decision.

Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.

• Customer landing page design (Figma)
• Multiple iterations
• Development on a platform which we could update but had robust functionality (Bubble)
• Couple iterations
• Support turning it live on our domain
• Handover development project (Bubble)

How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

2 - Matt (CEO/Lead) and a Designer

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?

• Design went through multiple iterations until I was content - Development offered all the necessary functionality (email capture, pop up screens, investment calculations, database capturing leads) 
• Delivered, reviewed, and live on time before Demo day

Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.

Matt was in communication throughout and ensured the designer was across all the details we discussed as well.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

Matt made time on and prior to Demo day to talk through the finished product and ensure we were happy. Keep in mind this was during AU work hours so for him it would have been past midnight! I'm very grateful for his commitment and support.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

I was quite involved in the design process, providing specific guidance. I don't think this could have been done differently as I was quite particular about certain details.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am the founder and CEO of a consumer mobile app startup.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Rapid Dev, and what were your goals?

We were building a no-code MVP of our app to get initial user traction & feedback and brought on RapidDev to help fix our current version on an expedited timeline, which was very buggy and low quality from both a performance and UX perspective.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?

We searched online for no-code app developers and shortlisted several. After interviewing them all, we went wit RapidDev based on their estimates for cost, timeline and understanding of our goals as well as current issues with the product.

Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.

Worked closely with CEO of RapidDev to understand what we wanted changed and create a detailed scope. Then worked very closely on cost / benefit trade-offs and what we actually wanted implemented vs. what could be held off until a later version of the product. Designs were done in Figma to be abundantly clear we were on same page, and actual product was created in Bubble (with extensions, etc.)

How many resources from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

CEO was our point of contact throughout project. There were several other team members working on project, but our communications went through CEO which was great.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?

Quickly fixed app and got it launched on app store. They Did a great job understanding feedback and working quickly.

Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.

CEO was very easy to communicate with and was super sharp. Primarily communicated via phone calls where we would live collaborate on scope details, most frequently in Jira. Could then monitor progress in Jira.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

I was most impressed by the honesty the CEO demonstrated when discussing potential features or changes to be implemented. Rather than accepting everything that we thought might be helpful, he pushed back and made us really thoughtfully consider what was actually worth including in the MVP and what was not.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

No real areas of improvement for RapidDev themselves. We came to the conclusion that no code software was not the best long-term solution for our mobile app in the long term, but that did not have to do with RapidDev. Plus, no code was very helpful in getting a quick validation of the idea and getting actual user feedback (vs. hypothetical)

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I'm the Head of Marketing for a company that's disrupting the dental space. We are growing revenue 2-4x quarter over quarter for the past 2 years.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Rapid Dev?

When I started at this company, our sales and marketing data was all over the place. The underlying structure of our data was flawed, and not easily accessible to the team or the company. Our business started to take off and it felt like we were driving in a monsoon without windshield wipers. Our goal was to improve our data management processes as well as create automations to view and take action on key insights and customer triggers.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?

I've known of Matt Graham's work from previous companies and knew he was the type of partner that could move as fast as us and with the level of intelligence required.

Describe the project in detail and walk through the stages of the project.

First, they audited our existing data as well as our business needs. Then they built a plan, which we jointly shopped around internally to get buy in. With all stakeholders bought in, he ran... really fast to build this sophisticated and highly effective data management and insights machine.

How many resources from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

Their founder was our main point of contact, and there was 3 other team members on his team at any given time.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

Working with RapidDev has transformed our sales and marketing decision making. Roughly two years later and we're still using the systems that their team implemented. Their work has scaled with our company and enabled us to reach 600% growth year over year.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

They had a reliable team of experts who were willing to respond to questions. We mostly spoke over Slack and email. If there was a change in the schedule on our side, they were quick to adapt.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

The team drew on their extensive experience and empathetic demeanor to get things done across multiple teams. Their creative thinking has also helped keep our field sales team engaged, which was genius.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

Nothing jumps out at me.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

Executive of a new venture with an innovative SaaS product.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Rapid Dev, and what were your goals?

The key deliverable was a web application that allows sales teams to exchange reports between reps, managers, and executives. It allows users to create a template for the report, save it on the system, and share it with other users for them to edit it and make comments.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?

I found them on Bubble listed as an agency. They offered the best value in terms of speed and budget. They were also local which was a big plus for us. We wanted to avoid the uncertainty of working with players outside our community.

Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.

Bubble software solution was the main technology used. There was also a high-level overview on Figma. They essentially built a new sass software platform for sales organizations.

How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

Directly with us, there were two main contacts, the CEO and a PM. There were also their development and design teams.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?

The web-app works really well and is exactly what we needed. I have started to test it with initial customers and all the feedback has been very positive.

Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.

Their team developed a project management system that was great at keeping us in touch with the development of the project and communicating their progress. I did not have a lot of time to micromanage the process so they worked very autonomously but absolutely nailed the deliverable. It all went very smooth and on time.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

They delivered the product we needed on a timeline and budget that worked well for us.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

None listed. The product and project went exactly as planned, on time and on budget

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I’m the Chief Executive Officer and Co-founder of a company that focuses on data science and artificial intelligence to help uncover both unqualified and unclaimed exemptions with ease.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Rapid Dev, and what were your goals?

We work with the government and their tax data. Our client's outdated web application intake forms needed additional features and updating. They wanted to transfer all the inputs to the new convenient and modern design that integrated with their CMS and our eligibility rules vetting software

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?

Choose Rapid Dev out of a couple of vendors. Low cost, speed, and flexibility were factors that they promised and delivered.

Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.

A complex form built using a low code framework, which was a quick and flexible solution for us. RapidDev made it work using custom code.

How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

I worked with Matt, (CEO), and we discussed every aspect of the work. then he introduced his project manager, Max, and the design team.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?

It was successful. The Rapid Dev team was able to stick to the budget and timelines that were laid out in the first proposal. The resulting forms are functional and user/friendly and integrated into our back office systems.

Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.

We communicated mostly through email and we use Google Meets when we had larger items to cover.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

We were impressed with the results and speed at which they delivered within our budget. We expected and received a high quality deliverable. Also as a busy founder, they made assumptions and executive decisions to keep me from having to weigh in on every detail.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

The initial scoping document did not have every detail, it was a working document that grew as the project came into focus. This isn't an area of improvement, just a statement of how the work was performed.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

We're founders of a veterinary relief company

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Rapid Dev?

We hired Rapid Dev to build an MVP for our project, which was aiming to match work to veterinarians and technicians with available jobs.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?

We found Rapid Dev after screening many different web design companies. We chose them because of the quality of their answers during the interview process. Matt, the owner of Rapid Dev, was quick to respond to any questions, and he asked questions that showed his understanding of the product we were looking to create.

Furthermore, Matt oversaw the entire process -- this was a MAJOR reason why we chose to work with Rapid Dev - because we wanted a company that could meet our specific needs/requirements. Many other companies had a sales rep, and then we would be passed along to the development team. Rapid Dev's process built trust from the beginning of the the first email.... and that was maintained throughout the entire process of working with them. Most importantly, they delivered exactly what we had asked them to create.

Describe the project in detail and walk through the stages of the project.

We had an initial meeting to discuss the details of our scope and Rapid Dev later delivered a proposal according to our needs. After that they started to build the application from zero (Previously we had a wordpress site). They used Bubble and they integrated many new features into the app, like a complex calendar with a lot of configuration options and messaging in-app.

How many resources from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

They had:

• a design team
• development team
• QA team

It was all coordinated via the primary project manager.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

The MVP was successfully built to spec and what I had originally intended.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

We mainly communicate using e-mail and very detailed comments within Figma.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

We were impressed with the results and the communication. They provided regular updates, and by the end of the project, we had a high-quality app to scale our business.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

Maybe the speed of the app could be improved.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I’m the CEO of one of the fastest-growing companies in the travel industry. We operate divisions in the corporate travel management and independent agency network segments. Our independent agency division, Travel Quest Network, is the premier platform for travel entrepreneurs to start and grow a travel business in America.

Our platform is built specifically for travel professionals who want to thrive and our team is dedicated to delivering outstanding support to help our member agencies achieve success in this complex industry. Whether you are an experienced advisor or brand new to the industry, we have the tools and the know-how to support you.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Rapid Dev, and what were your goals?

We began experimenting with the Bubble platform in 2021 and after validating that it was a great platform for fast, iterative development, we wanted to create an industry-changing web application for our member agencies to build, manage, and grow their businesses. We began initial development internally, but quickly realized we needed to partner with a leading firm to add needed functionality for our members, improve the visual design, increase app performance, and accelerate release deployments.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?

We engaged numerous potential partners. We were looking for a firm with deep platform knowledge, but one that also offered a broad spectrum of knowledge in supporting technologies outside of the core app. We wanted a firm that was not simply focused on short-term MVP projects but could be a long-term trusted partner for our app's development journey. Rapid Dev offered the hands-on approach we were looking for accompanied by a team of experts that could move quickly.

Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.

We had several kick-off meetings to discuss our goals and timelines. Our app has been divided into several phases, with an emphasis to deliver functionality quickly while still working towards our designed end-state. We set up a Jira Board to add and track tasks with their team.

How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

We work directly with Rapid Dev's CEO, Matt, regularly, as well as a dedicated project manager.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?

Rapid Dev developed the following functionality blocks:

• Redesigned and updated the member onboarding experience
• Made the entire app mobile-responsive
• Improved app security
• Assisted and coordinated with our internal for the initial app launch and migration of users from two legacy systems
• Designed and built an advanced LMS module
• Designed and built a consumer-facing web app
• Developed API connections and workflows to sync data with our customer service platform (FreshDesk)
• Many other deliverables...

Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.

We have weekly 1-hour meetings with my team and theirs to set new tasks and review tasks in progress. We stay in sync with direct communication via emails and Jira.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

We were very impressed by the level of communication and speed at which they deliver results. Rapid Dev is a true partner. They care about the quality of the work and most importantly the impact on the business and our customers. We collaborate to find solutions to problems. They challenge us when needed and aren't looking to just generate billable hours by following directions blindly.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

No.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am the founder of a SaaS tool for real estate agents, that helps them generate QR Codes for their sign-in sheets at open houses to capture more leads and paid their visitors to increment their meetings.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Rapid Dev, and what were your goals?

We had the project in mind and draft some sketches and concepts, but we needed experienced developers to build the project based on those ideas in a short period. We knew that the project would require a form editor, multiple integrations for communication with users, and grand designs that match the nature of the project. We hire Rapid Dev to conceptualize our objectives in a more technical matter and construct the application. Our main goal was to have a functional, easy-to-use, and effective application as soon as possible.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?

We published our proposal in multiple mediums like Upwork, and we contact multiple developers before finally choosing Rapid Dev. Their approach to how to build the application, combined with the fast development process that Bubble provided on a smaller budget, were the main factors in our decision. Also how involved they were in the project right from the get-go.

Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.

The partnership started with a meeting to have an introduction to the company CEO Matt, guiding on how the development was going to be and the steps that they would follow. After that, we received a detailed proposal document going through each phase of design and development itself, the duration of each item, and the cost of all the processes.

We were communicating through various platforms like Jira and we received concepts made on Figma, and after everything was completely set, they start the development period in Bubble. They deliver our SaaS application that generates the QR codes for vendors, with SMS integrations and email campaigns.

How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

Our main point of contact was the CEO of the company, that was present in every meeting and check on us with updates and the latest information about the development. There was a project manager assigned to us to facilitate immediate communication. And their full team of developers.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?

We had our application live in under 3 Months thanks to Rapid Dev, with a notable increase in the leads and traffic.

Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.

There were weekly synch meetings with Matt and the project manager, weekly updates on Friday emails that include Loom videos showing the progress made on that week, and constant messaging through our Jira board, Slack, and Gmail about any doubt that we could have or if we had any new requests. They were responsive and communicative. 

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

How involved was their CEO in all of the stages of the process was very refreshing, all their team was very communicative and knew how to interpret our feedback to build the application without many setbacks.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

There were some minor expected issues in the development, and there was a Facebook developer review process that needed to get approval that took some time, but everything was solved at the moment that we communicate with them.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the founder and CEO of PursuitTeam.ai, an AI-powered business development and capture management services company for government contractors. We help clients automate and optimize processes to find, qualify, and win more government contracts.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with RapidDev?

We needed to bring the stage one MVP of BD Signal™ from concept into a working product under an aggressive timeline. BD Signal™ is an AI-powered opportunity intelligence platform designed to help government contractors identify, evaluate, and prioritize the right pursuits by matching live opportunity data against contractor profiles, capabilities, NAICS codes, agency targets, past performance, and other fit criteria.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

RapidDev has helped us build the stage one MVP of BD Signal™. The team has built functionality around opportunity ingestion, contractor-profile matching, AI-assisted scoring, and pursue/pass recommendations — the core components we need to validate the stage one product vision. RapidDev has also built the following features:

• SAM.gov integration: Connect to SAM.gov public API, manual trigger to pull RFIs/RFPs, map response to opportunity card schema
• Data cleanup: Fix blank fields and UNKNOWN-IDENTIFIER issues across existing opportunity cards, normalize field mapping from API response 
• Company profile form: Build form UI (NAICS codes, capabilities, contract vehicles, certifications, past performance, disqualifiers, agency targets), save profile to DB/local storage
• AI scoring engine: Office hours for technical questions, implementation review, and team enablement
• Opportunity card UI: Display scored cards with score badge, fit sary, rationale, pursue/pass tag, clean and demo-ready layout
• Demo flow and polish: End-to-end QA of the full demo path (load profile → pull opps → score → show cards), fix visual inconsistencies, loading states

What is the team composition?

We’ve worked with 2–5 teammates from RapidDev, including Rahul (Partner), Fabian (Project Manager), and Ali (Software Engineer).

How did you come to work with RapidDev?

I met Matt and his team at an industry event, where we started discussing AI. We chose RapidDev because they had high ratings, their pricing fit our budget, they had a great culture fit, they offered good value for the cost, and their company values aligned with ours.

What is the status of this engagement?

We worked with RapidDev in May 2026.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

We have a live stage one MVP that we can demo with real data and present to potential customers. We’ve also seen increased interest from potential customers. RapidDev’s work has given PursuitTeam.ai a tangible product foundation and helped us accelerate conversations around pilots, partnerships, and future stage two development.

How did RapidDev perform from a project management standpoint?

RapidDev has delivered on time. We meet regularly to discuss progress and work through any operational blockers. Our primary forms of communication are virtual meetings and emails or messaging apps.

What did you find most impressive about them?

RapidDev’s speed, flexibility, and willingness to engage with a business problem that requires more than just coding stand out. The team is very easy to work with and extremely open to new ideas and methods. RapidDev has also worked directly with my internal technical partner, who started the platform build, to glean his institutional knowledge.

Are there any areas they could improve?

I don’t think there’s anything they can improve on.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

I recommend RapidDev to startups, founders, and product teams that need a fast, capable technical partner to help bring an MVP to life, especially when speed, collaboration, and practical execution matter.
