The Reckless, Inflexible Way
We could start every project by creating a detailed, step-by-step plan. That would mitigate the risk, right? Absolutely not.
The beginning of a project is the point of maximum ignorance. If we can't course-correct—if we never ask: “Are we still headed in the right direction?"—we'll end up with a so-so product and a long list of things to do “next time."
A comprehensive project plan can’t handle the pressures of the real world.
The Atomic Way
Atomic's approach is to make a broad plan, and then get creating. We build a small piece, test it, discuss it, refine our plan, and then do the whole thing over again.
Our creations grow organically, gradually increasing in size and complexity. This gives us the freedom to adapt, incorporate new information, and launch the best product possible.
What does this mean for your project?
We looked for partnership and execution; Atomic delivered this and more. AO moved beyond simply following our directions to anticipating analytic and evaluative needs and developing solutions to challenges. Bob Van Eck, Priority Health
Results
Atomic delivers so much more than code.

A Predictable Project
We hate surprises as much as you do. Atomic makes sure you always know exactly where your project is and where it's going—with frequent communication, open accounting, and weekly software releases.
Delighted Users
Users are the audience who matter most. With Atomic's help, your users will get an app that's beautiful, reliable, and helps them get things done with ease.
Great Value for Your Investment
Our business-savvy teams of designers and app developers will help you prioritize features, plan releases, and make smart trade-offs.
Peace of Mind
Things that don't happen on Atomic projects: vague answers, blown budgets, confusing interfaces, buggy software. Things that do happen: planning, tracking, testing, communication, testing, and more testing.
