[Testimonials] Don’t just take our word

We decided to go with a no-code MVP after having many conversations with full stack development contractors. Dev agencies were quoting us 6 months and $70,000+ for our mobile app MVP. DreamLabs promised 6 weeks at a fraction of the cost.  They delivered in 4 weeks.

As an early-stage, non-technical founder, DreamLabs broke down every step of the development process into easy, simple terms. They helped with scoping, building, beta testing, and handoff to our team - a thorough process from idea to launch.

I’d highly recommend DreamLabs to any founders wanting to build a market-ready product quickly and affordably.

DreamLabs has been very strategically helpful to the early phases of the Functional Health app. They have given excellent direction and guidance; they have challenged me to think critically in areas where I needed it.

With their services, I have been able to better steer the ship on a good course. I feel grateful to have found them and benefitted from their experience, skills, and services.
