Key facts
Services
Seven services from one accountable team — delivered remotely in your working hours.
Built for Illinois
The local rules and realities we design for from the first call.
Illinois' Biometric Information Privacy Act sets strict rules on collecting face, fingerprint or voice data and gives individuals a private right of action. Any feature touching biometrics, including computer vision and voice AI, gets written consent, retention schedules and a documented policy.
Public-facing Chicago sites carry ADA Title III litigation risk, and public bodies must meet WCAG 2.1 AA under the 2024 ADA Title II rule by April 2026 or April 2027 depending on population. We build to WCAG 2.2 AA and to Section 508 for federal work, and test with assistive technology.
Chicago's large Spanish and Polish-speaking communities mean customer-facing products often need more than English. We build language switching, translation-ready content models and locale-aware forms so a second or third language is a content task, not a rebuild.
We deploy to US cloud regions, often US East for Chicago latency, with a second region for backup, all in accounts your company controls. Trading and logistics clients with tighter latency needs get an architecture planned around those numbers from the start.
Sectors
Trading firms and financial services companies need fast, dependable dashboards, client portals and predictive models with audit trails built in. We design for low latency, clear permissions and the scrutiny of a compliance review.
Manufacturers ask for production dashboards, quality systems, computer vision for inspection and B2B ordering portals that connect to their ERP. We build the integrations carefully and keep the shop-floor interfaces simple enough to use with gloves on.
Carriers, brokers and warehouse operators need tracking apps, dispatch tools, driver mobile apps and predictive analytics for demand and routing. We connect the data sources you already have and build interfaces that work in a truck cab or on a dock.
Professional and trade associations headquartered in Chicago need member portals, event and certification systems, and email and content programmes that keep members engaged. We build accessible, multilingual platforms and run the marketing behind them.
Process
Discover
We open with a video kickoff in your Chicago afternoon, our morning, then interview users and map existing systems. If biometric or other sensitive data is involved, the compliance requirements are captured here.
Design
Wireframes and clickable prototypes reviewed in shared tools during the overlap window, with accessibility to WCAG 2.2 AA checked at the design stage. Multilingual layouts are planned now, not squeezed in later.
Build
A working demo lands every week and your team has continuous staging access to test in your own time, including the hours we are offline. We travel to Chicago for workshops or integrations better done in the room.
Launch
Deployment to US cloud regions in your own accounts, final performance and accessibility checks, and a complete handover of code, designs, documentation and credentials. You own the product outright.
Grow
After launch the same team handles new features, analytics and CRO, SEO and content, and paid campaigns, with replies within one business day and every change demonstrated before it goes live.
FAQ
No. OlDevs works from a single studio in Vancouver, British Columbia. Chicago clients get the same accountable team over video, scheduled in your hours, plus on-site visits for kickoffs, workshops or launch support when being there in person makes a real difference to the project.
Yes. Chicago is two hours ahead of Vancouver, which leaves a shared window from about 11:00 to 17:30 your time every working day. We schedule kickoffs, demos and reviews inside that window, and because you have staging access around the clock, testing never waits on us.
We know BIPA well because it affects the AI and computer vision work we do. Illinois has no comprehensive consumer-privacy statute as of our last review, so BIPA's strict consent, retention and disclosure rules for biometric data are the main state-level concern. Federal and sector rules still apply, and we build to what your counsel specifies.
Yes. We deploy to US cloud regions, usually US East for Chicago latency, in cloud accounts registered to your company. You control billing and access from day one, and the architecture is documented so your own IT team or another vendor could take it over at any point.
Web app development for trading, logistics and manufacturing operations leads, followed by mobile apps for drivers and field teams, AI automation and predictive analytics, and member platforms for associations. Performance marketing requests usually centre on paid search, email and analytics.
