Key facts
Services
Seven services from one accountable team — delivered remotely in your working hours.
Built for Texas
The local rules and realities we design for from the first call.
The Texas Data Privacy and Security Act has been in force since July 2024, and the SCOPE Act adds protections for minors. We build privacy notices, opt-out handling for targeted advertising and data sales, access and deletion requests, and age-appropriate defaults into the product from the outset.
Houston's public-facing sites carry ADA Title III litigation risk, public bodies face the 2024 ADA Title II WCAG 2.1 AA rule with April 2026 and April 2027 deadlines, and federal work such as aerospace contracts brings Section 508. We build to WCAG 2.2 AA across the board.
Spanish is widely spoken across Houston, so patient-facing, customer-facing and workforce tools usually need both languages. We design content models and interfaces to carry English and Spanish side by side, with translation workflows your team can keep running on its own.
We deploy to US cloud regions in accounts owned by your organisation, with backups in a second US region and access aligned to your IT and security policy. For medical and energy data with stricter handling rules, the architecture is documented for your compliance team to review.
Sectors
Energy companies need operational dashboards, asset and maintenance tools, field mobile apps and predictive models on sensor data. We integrate with the systems already in place and build interfaces that keep working offline on a site with poor connectivity.
Hospitals, clinics and research groups around the Texas Medical Center ask for patient portals, scheduling and intake tools, and AI that reduces documentation load. We build with access controls, audit trails and bilingual interfaces from the start.
Aerospace contractors and suppliers need secure engineering portals, document and compliance systems, and data tools that meet Section 508 for federal work. We build accessible, well-documented software and keep every integration and permission traceable.
Freight forwarders, port operators and distributors need shipment tracking, customs documentation tools, driver and yard mobile apps and demand forecasting. We connect your existing data feeds and build screens that work on a loading dock at speed.
Process
Discover
A video kickoff scheduled in your Houston afternoon, then interviews with the operators, clinicians or engineers who will use the product. Security, privacy and accessibility obligations are written down before design.
Design
Wireframes and prototypes reviewed in the shared window with your stakeholders, bilingual layouts planned in, and accessibility to WCAG 2.2 AA checked before build. Field and mobile use cases are tested on real devices.
Build
Weekly working demos and a staging environment you can open at any hour, so testing continues while we are offline. We travel to Houston for on-site work such as integration sessions or site walkthroughs when useful.
Launch
Deployment to US cloud regions in your own accounts, final security, performance and accessibility checks, and handover of code, designs, documentation and credentials. Your organisation owns every part of it.
Grow
After launch we keep improving the product and the pipeline: new features, analytics and CRO, SEO and content, paid search and social, all with the same team replying within one business day.
FAQ
No. OlDevs is a Vancouver, British Columbia studio and we work with Houston clients remotely. You deal with one accountable team over video in your working hours, and we travel to Houston for kickoffs, site visits, integration sessions or launch support when being on the ground helps the work.
Yes. Houston is two hours ahead of Vancouver, so from about 11:00 to 17:30 your time we are both at our desks. Calls and demos are booked inside that window, and your team has round-the-clock access to staging, so review and testing continue outside it. We reply to every enquiry within one business day.
We build to the Texas Data Privacy and Security Act, in force since July 2024, and to the SCOPE Act where a product may reach minors. That means clear notices, opt-outs for targeted advertising and data sales, access and deletion workflows, and age-appropriate defaults. Your counsel sets the policy; we make the software follow it.
Yes. We deploy to US cloud regions in accounts registered to your organisation, with a second US region for backup. Medical, energy and aerospace clients often have stricter data-handling requirements, and we document the architecture so your security and compliance teams can review and approve it.
Web apps and field mobile apps for energy, logistics and construction operations come up most, along with patient-facing tools for health care and AI work such as predictive maintenance and document automation. Marketing requests tend to focus on SEO, paid search and bilingual content.
Request a quote and tell us what you need built, who will use it and when you need it. We reply within one business day, book a video call in Houston hours, and send a written scope with deliverables, timeline and the team who will do the work. From there you decide whether to go ahead.
