“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 Orange County clients, we combine AI-assisted planning and implementation with hands-on senior engineering to move from concept to a working iOS app quickly. AI handles a meaningful share of the repetitive build work in Swift and SwiftUI; 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 or cutting corners Apple's App Store reviewers would catch. Whether you're a startup building a first product or an established Orange County company adding a new mobile offering, we deliver iOS applications that are genuinely production-ready: performant, secure, and built to scale as your business grows.

[FAQs]
We offer full custom iOS development, from UI/UX design through architecture, engineering, and App Store launch, plus ongoing support. Our AI-enabled process keeps pricing around $20,000 and timelines around 6 weeks for a typical build, without cutting corners on quality.
Our published tiers anchor the range: prototypes start at $6,000 and full MVPs at $15,000. A typical custom iOS build with our AI-enabled process runs around $20,000 all-in, compared to the roughly $200,000 a traditional agency might charge, with delivery in about 6 weeks rather than the industry-typical 6 months.
Custom development means the app fits your business instead of the other way around. Paired with AI-enabled engineering, Orange County businesses get that customization at a fraction of the usual cost and time, with a team that stays engaged well past App Store launch.
A local team means easier collaboration and a partner who understands the Orange County market you're building for. We add AI-enabled development on top of that, so you get local accessibility plus a build that's genuinely faster and more affordable than the traditional model.
