About the studio
The studio behind Online Developers.
OlDevs, short for Online Developers, is a development, AI and marketing studio in Vancouver, British Columbia. Since 2014 we have built web and mobile products, built and deployed the AI inside them, and run the performance marketing that grows them — three practices under one roof, for organisations of every size.

About Siddhant
Brand story
Bold ideas, engineered into working products.
Bold ideas, engineered into working products. That line has guided OlDevs since 2014, when Online Developers opened in Vancouver to build websites and web apps for organisations that wanted their technology to work as well as it looked. What changed was not the standard but the scope. Clients who had a product then needed people to find it, so marketing became a practice rather than a favour. Clients drowning in manual work needed models and agents, so AI became a practice too. Today the studio runs all three — development, AI, and performance marketing — with technology advisory, packaged solutions and fractional teammates around them. One accountable team still owns the whole path, from the first line of code to the campaign that fills it, and the client owns everything at the end of it.
Mission
To make technology feel effortless — designing, building and marketing digital products that are modern, reliable and genuinely useful.
Vision
A world where every organisation, whatever its size, has access to world-class digital craft.
Core values
Creativity
The catalyst for every product we ship.
Collaboration
One team with our clients, start to finish.
Excellence
An uncompromising standard, end to end.
Voice
Confident, clear, and human.
We speak like expert developers who also communicate well — technical when it counts, plain-spoken always. Modern, precise, warm.
What we do
Three practices, one accountable team.
Most studios do one of these and subcontract the rest. We run all three in-house, which is why a product, the AI inside it and the campaign that fills it can be decided in the same conversation.
Development
Web apps, Android and iOS apps, websites and full-stack systems, plus the UI/UX, QA, DevOps, cloud and security work around them. 5 core development services and 7 supporting capabilities.
All services02AI development & consulting
Custom models, generative AI and LLM copilots, natural language, computer vision, automation agents and predictive analytics — advised on, built, and run in production rather than demoed.
AI development03Performance marketing
Twenty-one disciplines from SEO, GEO and paid media through commercial, video and social production to PR, crisis communications and stakeholder relations. Measured, reported monthly, owned by you.
Performance marketing04Technology & platforms
The stack decisions behind the work: architecture, front and back end, cloud, data, security and hardware, plus the platforms we build on from WordPress and Webflow to Shopify, AWS and HubSpot.
Technology05Solutions & industries
Ready-shaped systems — portals, CRM, booking, inventory, learning, IoT — and twenty sectors we know well, from associations and government to franchises, agriculture, healthcare and retail.
Solutions06Fractional teammates
Thirty senior roles you can embed part-time in your own team, across all three practices, when the need is ongoing but not yet a full-time hire.

Twelve years in
Every build now ships to WCAG 2.2 AA, in English and French, with clients owning all code, designs, accounts and IP.
What we believe
Six principles behind every engagement.
Creativity is a discipline
Ideas earn their place by being built. We sketch, prototype and test early so imagination turns into something you can click.
Collaboration beats hand-offs
You are in the room from the strategy call to launch. Weekly working demos mean no surprises and no black boxes.
Excellence is measurable
Performance budgets, WCAG 2.2 AA, automated tests and clean code are the baseline, not the upgrade.
Effortless is the point
Good technology disappears into the work. If people notice it, it is usually because something went wrong.
You own the work
Code, designs, accounts and IP belong to you the day they are created, with no lock-in and no strings.
Craft for everyone
Whether you are a two-person startup or a provincial agency, you get the same team, the same standards and the same care.
How we work
From first call to live product.
Discover
A strategy call to map goals, audience, and the one action the product must drive.
Design
Flows, interface, and a design system in your brand — reviewed with you, not for you.
Build
Engineering with a working demo every week, so nothing is a surprise at launch.
Launch
Shipped, monitored, documented, and handed over with everything you own.
Grow
Marketing and iteration against your numbers — pipeline and revenue, not page views.
FAQ
Questions about the studio.
OlDevs is short for Online Developers, the name the studio opened under in Vancouver in 2014. The shorter form stuck; the work is the same: web, mobile, full-stack, AI and performance marketing under one roof.
The studio is in Vancouver, British Columbia. Most of our work happens remotely, so we serve clients across Canada and internationally, with meetings scheduled around your time zone and deliverables in English or French.
Web app development, Android and iOS app development, website development, full-stack development, AI development (custom machine learning, generative AI and LLMs, NLP, computer vision, agents and predictive analytics) and performance marketing (SEO and content, paid search and shopping, paid social, email and lifecycle, analytics and CRO, creative and media).
Corporations, associations and government bodies, franchises, and entrepreneurs and startups. The common thread is an organisation that needs software or marketing to work properly and wants to own it outright.
Yes. OlDevs is bilingual, so we can run a project, write content and ship interfaces in English and French, including fully bilingual builds for associations and public-sector clients.
Every project is quoted on its scope, so we do not publish prices. Tell us what you need to build or grow and we will reply with a quote within one business day.
