Pain Points You Might be Feeling

You need to go faster

You need to deliver more, faster—and augmenting your team with AI-first developers can help speed up delivery.

How We Engage to Drive Product-Enhancement ROI

We have 20+ years’ experience helping clients like you alleviate headaches with their ongoing software projects. Here are three engagement models we offer.

Complementing Your Team

You hire us for your expertise to deliver on an independent work stream for an application (e.g., a mobile app, feature set, or human-centered design). Your in-house team stays focused on their core backlog.

Integrating into Your Team

You hire our expert designers or developers to work directly with your current team. This is a valuable and flexible option if you don’t have time, desire, or long-term need to hire and manage a larger team.

Replacing Your Team

You hire us to take over a struggling project. We help you smoothly transition away from the team failing to meet your expectations. This helps you course-correct when it’s clear success requires a change.

What Sets Us Apart

In 25+ years of helping clients like you, we’ve built a brand promise other firms don’t match: a great product and a great client experience at a great value.

Here is the set of choices we’ve made—that other firms won’t:

Full Product Team

Unlike specialized service providers that only offer design or development, we help you focus on the bigger picture. Atomic provides and coordinates the multidisciplinary skillsets you need to ship a great product.

Advanced Tools & Practices

Every team member uses AI to move faster and build smarter. We invest hundreds of thousands of dollars each year in tools, training, and knowledge management so our clients can benefit from the latest software development innovations.
