Smaller products, still taking shape.
(02) What we build
One studio, every screen your product lives on.
- 01 iOS and iPadOS Native apps in Swift and SwiftUI that feel at home on Apple’s platforms and take full advantage of them.
- 02 Android Kotlin and Jetpack Compose apps built to Material 3, or a shared codebase when one product needs to reach both stores quickly.
- 03 macOS Mac apps in SwiftUI and AppKit that respect the platform: keyboard first, fast, and comfortable in the menu bar.
- 04 SaaS and web platforms Laravel platforms with Livewire or React: the product itself, its back office, and the API behind your mobile apps.
- 05 Product design Research, flows and interfaces, tested as prototypes, so the build starts from a clear and shared picture.
(03) How we work
Calm, steady, in the open.
No black box. You see the product take shape every week, and you always know what comes next.
-
01
Understand
A short discovery to agree on the problem, the people and what success looks like. It ends with a written scope and a plan.
-
02
Design
Flows and interfaces designed in Figma, then tested as clickable prototypes before any production code is written.
-
03
Build
Short cycles with a working build every week, on TestFlight, Play testing tracks or a staging server. You see progress, not reports.
-
04
Launch
Store submission, review, analytics and the many details of launch day, handled with you.
-
05
Evolve
After launch, we stay: fixes, OS updates and the next features, planned month by month.
(04) What we care about
The details people never notice, and always feel.
-
Native where it matters
Platform conventions, accessibility and speed are not polish added at the end. They are where we start.
-
Made for real conditions
Patchy networks, older phones, French and English, mobile money. We build for the places people actually live.
-
Private by default
We collect what a feature needs and nothing more. PinKeep, for one, keeps every saved place on the device, with no account.
-
Built to be maintained
Tested code, a clear architecture and written decisions, so the product keeps growing well past version one.
The studio
Small by design.
Asraya Labs is a founder-led studio. You speak directly with the person designing and writing your product: no account managers, no hand-offs, nothing lost in translation.
