QED Ltd

BACKGROUND

I am the Founder & CEO of My Home Call

My Home Call is a biometric safety platform that enables people to connect with trusted contacts from any smartphone when their own phone is lost, stolen, broken or out of battery, while also helping schools operate phone-free environments safely.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

• We engaged QED to develop and launch the My Home Call mobile application, integrating biometric identity verification to enable users to access their trusted contacts from any smartphone. Our objectives were to build a secure, reliable and scalable platform, launch successfully on both iOS and Android, and establish a technical foundation for future features and expansion into schools, corporate partnerships and other markets.

SOLUTION

• Great culture fit
• Good value for cost
• Referred to me

2-5 Employees

QED provided end-to-end software development services, including technical architecture, UX/UI design, iOS and Android app development, biometric technology integration, backend infrastructure, testing, deployment and ongoing technical support. They also provided CTO-level guidance, helping us develop the platform, introduce new features and support our expansion into the education sector.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

QED successfully delivered and launched My Home Call on Google Play in September 2025 and the Apple App Store in October 2025. Since launch, we have introduced a free subscription tier, expanded the platform's functionality and developed a dedicated solution for phone-free schools. We have successfully deployed the technology in schools, supporting thousands of pupils with a secure way to contact home without carrying a mobile phone. The platform has also achieved Cyber Essentials certification, providing a strong foundation for further commercial growth, partnerships and future product development.

QED managed the project professionally, maintaining regular communication and responding quickly to our changing requirements. As a startup, our priorities have evolved considerably, and the team has been flexible in adapting to new challenges and opportunities. While some development milestones took longer than originally anticipated, QED remained committed to delivering the right solution rather than simply meeting a deadline. Their responsiveness, technical expertise and willingness to work closely with us have been particularly valuable as we have moved from initial development into live operations and school deployments.

Virtual Meeting

What impressed me most about QED was their genuine commitment to our business and its success. They operate more like a technology partner than an external development company, taking the time to understand what we are trying to achieve and contributing ideas beyond the original brief. Their technical expertise, flexibility and willingness to tackle complex challenges have been invaluable, particularly when integrating biometric technology and adapting the platform for schools. As a startup, having a development partner who understands both the technical and commercial challenges makes a significant difference.

As with most complex software development projects, there is always room for improvement in project timelines and communication around delivery dates. At times, clearer visibility of development progress and earlier identification of potential delays would have helped us plan more effectively, particularly as a startup working towards commercial deadlines. However, QED have always been receptive to feedback and willing to adapt their approach. Overall, the positives have significantly outweighed any challenges, and we continue to value them as a trusted technology partner.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the co-founder and data scientist at a data science startup.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with QED Ltd?

We wanted to display the power of an algorithm we developed through a website.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

QED Ltd developed a website for us. It was a full stack website where we gave them the results of the algorithm we created, and they turned that into something that could receive visitors using Google Maps API.

What is the team composition?

We worked directly with Anto (Founder), and he organized his team behind the scenes.

How did you come to work with QED Ltd?

We found them through a freelancing platform. We chose them because of the communication of our first calls; they seemed straightforward, and it was easy to get our ideas across, which can be challenging with offshore providers.

How much have you invested in them?

We’ve spent around $18,000 with them so far.

What is the status of this engagement?

We worked together from November–December 2021.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

For me, having a working admin page to monitor our customer visits was proof of the project's success.
How did QED Ltd perform from a project management standpoint?

Project management was perfect; we had weekly meetings where they explained the progress and plans for the project, and there never was a time when they didn’t deliver something. In terms of communication, we used emails and phone calls.

What did you find most impressive about them?

Their communication and ability to understand our complex requirements were outstanding. They were able to translate what we needed for the UX’s look and feel into an actual working code. Overall, we noticed that there was a lot of thinking behind their choices, which was important to us.

Are there any areas they could improve?

I don’t think there’s anything they can improve on; their process was smooth, and I wouldn’t change a thing about it.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Have a strong idea of what you want the UX to look like. Also, be clear about your requirements for it in terms of the functions of each element of the website.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

My company was a startup and I was the founder.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire QED Ltd, and what were your goals?

I hired QED to help design and build the software that was the sole commercial offering of the company.

QED did all of the design and build of the software platform over the course of a few months with tweaks and refinements over the year from customer feedback.

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

Key factors were cost, experience, and the interview with Anto, a principal at QED.

2 individuals with one primary. They were both senior designers and software engineers.

The software was amazing. They did a fabulous job designing what I wanted and building a robust, scalable, sustainable app from the design. I was the principal architect and had the vision, but what I needed, they implemented. However, they were not shy to offer alternatives if they thought something I was asking for could be done better. This was the best outcome imaginable for me.

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

We typically used Slack and to a lesser extent e-mail. Communication was always prompt. While I worked in the US Pacific time zone and QED was Central Europe, that never slowed down my project. Our interplay was ideal.

The implementation pace, follow-up, and overall care from a company that didn't "own" the product were fabulous.
