Naked. We don’t just build apps — we help new Founders build app companies.
Our CA-based team of entrepreneurs, innovators, and visionaries partners with early-stage Founders and business owners to design, develop, and launch apps that solve real problems - and avoid the costly missteps most startups make. From strategy and branding to development and go-to-market, we bring deep product thinking and decades of app experience across every stage.
We’re not here for every project - we’re here for the right ones. The kind where we get just as excited as you about the possibilities. Led by Founders who know what they don’t know and want to get it right the first time.
That’s why we don’t believe in assumptions - we ask the tough questions we’ve learned to ask across dozens of projects, the ones that create clarity, reduce risk, and improve your odds of success.
Led by CEO John Driscoll, with 15+ years of app experience and a portfolio that’s generated 3.7M+ downloads and $96.5M raised, we bring more than services - we bring the edge you need in a crowded market
