Software People Love

We Build Software People Love — Our Purpose-Driven Approach to Development

During a software development project, you must achieve synergy between three key pillars: user experience (UX), quality assurance (QA), and continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD). At Upstart 13, we strike the perfect balance between these foundational elements to build software people love while simultaneously delivering a strong return on investment for our customers.

The Process

What sets Upstart 13 apart from other development partners? The easy answer — everything! Your meeting with a development partner shouldn’t consist of endless tech speak and countless acronyms. The conversation should center around the needs of your organization and what you hope to achieve with your project.

Most of all, the strategy and process need to prioritize the following areas:

People First

At Upstart 13, we take a deep dive into the needs of your organization and those of end users, whether they be employees or customers. We ask the question, “What functionalities would this audience love and embrace?” By putting people at the center of all we do, our team creates a frictionless user experience that yields impactful products and high adoption rates.

What makes our process different is that we don’t make assumptions or draw conclusions based on trends or patterns. We go straight to the source, gathering user feedback and conducting extensive research to ensure that the layout, function, and design of your deliverable aligns with what people want.

Goal Alignment

Speaking of alignment, we ensure our priorities are in lockstep with your defined goals. Moreover, our team ensures that we stay in sync for the entire project through our systematic quality assurance processes. QA focuses on improving our software development process and preventing defects during the development lifecycle.

Throughout the project, we’ll complete numerous check-ins to make sure the deliverable is still on course to meet your time, budget, and purpose. In addition to performing extensive testing, we keep you in the loop every step of the way.

Ongoing Optimization

The CI/CD approach to software engineering improves delivery speed, quality, and efficiency. Through these processes, we can automate key phases of integration, testing, and deployment, thereby allowing our team of creatives to devote more time to UX, layout, and optimization.

Most importantly, Upstart 13 understands that the needs of your audience evolve over time. Through continuous integration and continuous deployment, we stay ready to adapt, keeping your deliverable relevant and useful.

Measuring the Impacts of People-First Solutions

At Upstart 13, we care about much more than just checking all of the boxes on your list of software “must-haves.” We build solutions that positively impact society and change lives.
