[Who we are]
Burlingame companies work with our senior engineering team to build custom software accelerated by AI across architecture, development, and testing, delivered in weeks rather than the usual 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]
Our process for Burlingame clients pairs AI-assisted architecture and implementation with direct senior engineering oversight at every stage. AI accelerates the scaffolding and repetitive coding work; our engineers stay focused on the architecture and integration decisions that determine whether the system performs once real customers or staff are using it.
We move from requirements to a working system quickly, then iterate with you in short, visible cycles instead of a long, opaque build phase. Continuous integration and automated testing run throughout, catching problems early rather than at the end of a multi-month cycle.
Whether you're a hospitality business managing bookings and logistics or a biotech company handling sensitive research data, Burlingame clients need software that performs reliably under real operational pressure. We build for that standard, using AI to move fast on the parts of development that benefit from it while keeping senior engineers accountable for security, performance, and the parts of the system your business actually depends on.
[Deliverables]
Custom software built for Burlingame businesses, from hospitality operators to biotech companies, engineered by senior developers using AI-accelerated development. We handle the full build lifecycle, from architecture through deployment and ongoing support.
Integration work for Burlingame businesses connecting new software to booking, logistics, or operational systems that already run the business day to day. AI-enabled development speeds implementation while our engineers keep full ownership of reliability and data handling.
Full-stack development covering both the backend systems Burlingame businesses depend on and the front-end their customers or staff actually use. AI-assisted prototyping puts working software in front of you early, so decisions get made on real functionality rather than assumptions.
[FAQs]
Our published tiers anchor the range: prototypes start at $6,000 and full MVPs at $15,000. A typical custom software build with our AI-enabled process runs around $20,000 all-in, substantially lower than the roughly $200,000 other agencies might charge for comparable scope. AI reduces the manual hours needed for scaffolding and testing, and we pass that savings directly to Burlingame clients.
Working with a Burlingame-area team means faster collaboration and a partner who understands the Peninsula business environment, from hospitality to biotech. Paired with our AI-enabled process, that translates to delivery in about 6 weeks instead of the industry-typical 6 months, without cutting corners on quality.
Pricing depends on project complexity, technology stack, and feature scope. Our AI-enabled process typically brings a build to around $20,000, well below the roughly $200,000 a fully manual build might cost, with most projects completing in about 6 weeks.
A San Mateo County-based team can move quickly on the operational realities specific to this market, from hospitality logistics to biotech compliance needs. We combine that local understanding with AI-enabled development to deliver tailored software faster and more affordably than a traditional build.
[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.
