DreamLabs
[Who we are]
Tustin businesses, including companies growing around the Tustin Legacy development and The District, build custom Android apps with our senior engineers, using an AI-augmented process to launch production-ready software in weeks, not months.

“Other app developer quoted 10X the price to create a live testable version. DreamLabs pricing structure has meant we can quickly get the app in users hands and see what they think!”
Jenn Brooks · Founder & CEO @ Nurture
As a fractional product team, we start by defining your vision and sharpening your strategy. We don’t just say “yes,” but always ask “why?”, helping your dev budget go further and faster.
We use AI-accelerated development to help teams of all sizes launch custom, scale-ready digital products. Ship in days/weeks, not months/years.
User testing is a bonus service we offer to all clients for free. This means we learn together from real users with each release.
[What We Do]
For Tustin clients, we combine AI-assisted planning and implementation with hands-on senior engineering to move from concept to a working Android app quickly. AI handles a meaningful share of the repetitive build work; our engineers own architecture, code review, and every decision that affects long-term quality. We break projects into short, visible phases so you see real progress at every step rather than waiting for a single big reveal. Continuous integration and automated testing run throughout the build, which lets us maintain a fast pace without sacrificing stability. Businesses growing around Tustin's newer commercial districts often need to move quickly to establish themselves in a developing market, and we build with that pace in mind, without treating speed as an excuse to cut corners on architecture or security. Whether you're a startup building a first product or an established Tustin company adding a new mobile offering, we deliver Android applications that are genuinely production-ready: performant, secure, and built to scale as your business and the city around it keep growing.
[Deliverables]
Custom Android applications for Tustin's established and newly growing businesses, engineered by senior developers using AI-accelerated development. We handle the full build, from architecture through Play Store launch, at a pace suited to a fast-developing local market.
Enterprise Android solutions for Tustin companies that need an app to integrate with existing systems as the business scales. AI-enabled workflows speed up implementation while our engineers keep full ownership of security, performance, and long-term maintainability.
Interface and experience design built around how Tustin's growing customer base actually uses Android. AI-assisted prototyping means you see and react to real, working screens early, keeping design decisions grounded in feedback rather than guesswork.
[FAQs]
Our published tiers anchor the range: prototypes start at $6,000 and full MVPs at $15,000. A typical custom Android build with our AI-enabled process runs around $20,000 all-in, compared to the roughly $200,000 a traditional agency might charge for comparable scope. AI reduces the manual hours required for scaffolding, testing, and iteration, and we pass that efficiency on directly.
Most projects ship in about 6 weeks with our AI-enabled process, compared to the industry-typical 6 months, which matters in a fast-developing market like Tustin where getting to customers quickly can matter as much as the build itself.
A typical shop bills largely for manual hours across design, development, and QA. We pair a small, senior team with AI throughout architecture, implementation, and testing, so you get comparable or better code quality with a fraction of the billable hours.
We typically can begin discovery within a week or two of an initial conversation, depending on current workload. Because our AI-enabled process compresses the build itself down to roughly 6 weeks, the full path from first call to launch is usually much shorter than working with a traditional agency.
[01] Product Strategy
We start by helping you define your long and short-term product visions. We then break down the concepts into concrete features and functions, so we can piece them back together into a prioritized roadmap.
[02] Development
With the framework pinned down, we go heads-down on execution. We leverage AI-powered tooling and a modern Flutter + Firebase stack to develop your product in record time.
[03] Polishing + Launch QA
Your finished product to ensure that each feature works seamlessly, every color is precise and all copy is ready for publication. We then manage the entire app publishing process on mobile, web or both.
