What Users Say

NaNlabs is very punctual with their timelines and deliver timely

Nadia Giacinti , CX Designer LATAM at Bayer

The team effectively managed the engagement, ensuring the project stayed on track.

Jeff Starr , Principal & Founder at Growth Accelerators, Inc

We had a great time working with them. Looking forward to work with them again.

Wes Walker , CEO & Co-Founder at Propersum

Perfection is the word for their work.

Shahar Bar , CEO at Loquatree Ventures

Leandro Calcagno , E-commerce Director at Open Sports

What Users Like The Most

We were impressed with the quality of both their management and individual programming capabilities. Not only does NaNLABS have an extremely capable group of senior level managers who were easily able to understand our project needs and recommend architectural enhancements, the individual members of our team were exceptionally capable. This was a difficult thing for us to find in an industry where most assigned resources are either very junior, or lacking in relevant project experience.
We have found the level of passion for the project and creativity has far exceeded expectations. Meeting spec sheets and release features was my normal expectation. With this group, the level of professionalism and infectious energy keeps us going even during the inevitable periods of doubt and question. They are problem solvers and risk spotters.
We had direct contact with developers. They were all involved and committed to our project. Their talent is exceptional and always had a strong relationship with their leadership team. Leadership team is very keen to take feedback and find ways as to how to collaborate and deliver better results.

What Users Like The Least

Most of the challenges we faced were due to the nature of our preexisting code, or the hasty departure of our previous development partner. NaNLABS did a great job of managing through that chaos and installing an effective team very quickly.
We would love it if Argentina was closer to our home base.
Not really. Along the way, we had some minor issues that were discussed and addressed quickly.

Web Development

Describe your project in brief

NaNLABS is redeveloping an existing parenting website, adding new features and making the site more responsive. They provide a full-service solution, building, operating, and maintaining the platform.

What is it about the company that you appreciate the most?

They were flexible when we had different ideas for implementation. They did a really good job of researching tools online. Even if they weren’t aware of a certain kind of toolset or engine or library, they researched them quickly and were able to incorporate them. They have a very high learning skill level. When we came across something they had not done before, it wasn’t an issue. They covered the gap within days.

What was it about the company that you didn't like which they should do better?

Nothing stands out. They’re based in Argentina. It’s a foreign country and for payments, you have to do an international wire transfer. It’s little details like that. That’s not a problem, but if they had a U.S. entity or some sort of mechanism to work within the U.S., that would be a little easier.

Very good experience working with NaNLABS.

Front- and Backend Development Staff Aug for Art Gallery

What service was provided as part of the project?

Web Development

Describe your project in brief

NaNLABS provides development staff augmentation for an art gallery. They’ve provided frontend and now focus on backend work for a web app. The team helps maintain and build features for the client’s technology.

What is it about the company that you appreciate the most?

NaNLABS’ team quality is high, and their output is good. They’ve been quick to bring on multiple people who have very swiftly understood a fairly complex system. I’ve worked with providers where that was not the case, so NaNLABS’ ability to source talent distinguishes them from others.

What was it about the company that you didn't like which they should do better?

NaNLABS has an interesting approach to how they model some of their developers, where some resources come as a unit, which is fair. However, this introduces cost and complexity because it’s a rigid system. Although I wouldn’t say they’re inflexible, this has definitely prevented us from continuing with a resource we may have wanted to keep working with. On the other hand, this might be what makes their team work well across the company, so it’s a cost-benefit aspect I can’t really speak to. Still, it would be ideal for me to more easily scale a team up or down without dealing with ramifications across the rest of the development team.

What is it about the company that you appreciate the most?

NaNLABS is extremely committed to building and retaining talent. They use the opportunities available as teaching moments and bring in team members to shadow and learn. We like working with a partner that's so committed to their team and who puts so much into the education and training of their team members. We have a steady team that we work with, which is great because we don’t always have to get people up to speed. They’re highly organized, especially in terms of approaching big development problems. They have a robust documentation system and always evaluate before diving in. They’re also highly flexible, open to feedback, proactive, and quick to solve any issues.

PROPERSUM: Vacation Rental Real Estate Marketplace

CONTEXT

Propersum is a startup that launched a vacation rental real estate marketplace. The startup connects buyers, agents and managers, allowing each one to make the best deals. They first reached out to NaNLABS to build an MVP prototype within 2 months. This project marked the beginning of a dynamic partnership. Two other projects followed.

CLIENT NEEDS

We worked on different projects with Propersum. The first one was the creation of an MVP prototype. They knew exactly what they needed but didn’t have the know-how to turn their vision into reality. The success of this project led us to collaborate on a second one where our dev team had to completely redesign the user experience and develop a PWA with insights gathered from their target audience testing round. The third project is ongoing so let’s focus on NaNLABS work for the second one, the Progressive Web App.

NaNLABS WORK

Complete UI/UX redesign.
Brought support for 3 different user interfaces in the vacation rental home space which are industry vendors, real estate agents and property managers.
Conceived the app to be SEO friendly.
Architected the app as a PWA to ease and increase user adoption.

TECHNOLOGY & METHODOLOGY

Management: Agile methodologies, ClickUp
Front-end: ReactJS, Material UI, React Helmet, Storybook
Back-end: Python & Django

CONTEXT

WootCloud is an emerging innovator in enterprise IoT device security. In 2016, the startup launched an innovative IoT risk assessment platform able to uncover all types of unmanaged devices by scanning both the radio and network spectrum to provide critical context about each device. Thus, the platform analyzes a large amount of data in order to detect, prevent but also remediate security issues.

CLIENT NEEDS

Back in 2018, WootCloud needed NaNLABS to support their in-house team in creating new architectures to empower their existing platform and analyze their codebase. The purpose of these analyses was to simplify workflows among other collaborations. Overall, the goal was to improve and scale the platform.

NaNLABS WORK

NaNLABS' team helped WootCloud in upgrading the full stack platform.
We released some core features like anomaly remediation.
We initiated the first of many WootCloud serverless integrations.

ELTON AI: Receipts Collecting & Processing App

CONTEXT

Elton AI was created to resolve a corporate problem: keeping track of employees’ travel expenses. The app had to make the process of uploading receipts as easy as possible to be efficient. To do so, this app allows users to scan their receipts with their smartphones and extracts information automatically from them.

CLIENT NEEDS

While collaborating with Elton's in-house team, we were in charge of the whole user experience, as well as defining the software architecture of the platform and its implementation.We faced complex challenges: the app needed to be seamless for users (scanning receipts info from several data sources) and their finance teams (data collected should be automatically injected in their record systems). Moreover, we had a short deadline to release an initial MVP version to launch pilot programs.

NaNLABS WORK

We did several iterations and made sure that the system inspired trust.
The app used an OCR system linked to a machine learning engine.
Integrations: integration with several corporate email providers, integration with banking APIs, integration with corporate ERPs to upload all the expenses data collected.
We also implemented a recommendation system to reduce human interaction as much as possible.

OX: Soft Skills Development Application

CONTEXT

Ox is on a mission to change the way people get jobs, making it easier to acquire the skills needed to get started in technology. They're providing companies with access to a remote, ready and trained workforce.

Ox contacted NaNLABS in order to develop an MVP that would be tested by their target audience. The MVP would also be used to run pilot programs and attract investors.

CLIENT NEEDS

Ox already had the vision but they needed product guidance. They wanted a handy mobile application with a friendly UI and a system that would be able to provide a complete speech analysis and save users' progress on their learning milestones. Thus, Ox needed a partner to help with the design and development parts of the MVP.

NaNLABS WORK

NaNLABS brought together a cross-functional team: 2 full-stack Developers, a UI/UX Designer, a Product Manager and a Technical Lead/Support.
Our team laid down the software architecture to make the MVP foundations solid and future-proof.
Our UI/UX Designer fully revamped the initial design to create an easy-to-use and engaging experience.
Our full-stack developers implemented the different microservices and set up the orchestration of the several software pieces.

TECHNOLOGY & METHODOLOGY

SCRUM methodology with the following setup: one week sprints, weekly refinement and daily meetings with NanLABS’ team, weekly meetings with the client to present a demo and show the progress we’d made.
Front-end: React with Apollo Client.
Back-end: NestJS framework with GraphQL (Apollo Server)
DevOps: Google Cloud Platform (GCP) services such as Firebase authentication, Docker containers, Natural Language Processing (NLP) with Digital Signal Processing (DSP).
Design: Figma

RESULTS

Within 90 days, NaNLABS shortened the time to market with an MVP in the form of a fully functional PWA that used NLP and DSP to analyze human voice notes.
The success of this first collaboration got Ox to collaborate with NaNLABS on a second project.
