Built for New York

What New York projects need us to get right.

The local rules and realities we design for from the first call.

01

New York SHIELD Act

The SHIELD Act sets data-security and breach-notification duties for anyone holding New York residents' private information. With no comprehensive consumer-privacy statute as of our last review, we design for reasonable safeguards: encryption, access controls, logging and a tested breach plan.

02

ADA and WCAG 2.2 AA

Public-facing sites in New York carry real ADA Title III litigation exposure, and the 2024 Title II rule holds state and local government content to WCAG 2.1 AA. We build to WCAG 2.2 AA as standard and test with keyboard and screen readers, which also covers Section 508 for federal work.

Multilingual by design

English, Spanish and many other languages are spoken across the five boroughs. We build content models and interfaces that can carry more than one language from day one, with proper language tags, translated metadata and layouts that hold when strings get longer.

US hosting and data residency

Your data can stay in US cloud regions, with US-East locations close to New York for low latency. We set up the account in your name, document the architecture, and keep backups, logging and access policies in the same jurisdiction so nothing leaves the country without a decision from you.

Sectors

Who we work with in New York.

Financial services

Banks, fintechs and advisory firms need secure client portals, onboarding flows and reporting tools. We build web apps with strong authentication, audit trails and encrypted data, and apply predictive analytics where it helps decisions.

Media and advertising

Publishers and agencies need fast content platforms, ad-ready page performance and audience data they can act on. We build headless sites, mobile apps for subscribers and AI tools for tagging, summarising and search.

Fashion and retail

Retailers and labels need commerce that holds up on launch day, mobile apps that keep customers coming back and paid social that pays for itself. We build storefronts, loyalty apps and full-funnel performance marketing.

Real estate

Brokerages, developers and property managers need listing platforms, tenant portals and lead capture that feeds the CRM. We build search-heavy web apps, iOS and Android apps for tenants, and computer vision for property imagery.

Process

Working with OlDevs from New York.

  1. Discover

    We kick off by video in Eastern hours, walk through your goals, users and existing systems, and leave with a written scope and a plan you can hold us to.

  2. Design

    Wireframes and clickable prototypes are reviewed with you each week. We design to WCAG 2.2 AA from the first screen, so accessibility is never a retrofit.

  3. Build

    One accountable team ships a working demo every week to a staging environment you can open in New York whenever you like. Nothing is hidden until launch.

  4. Launch

    We deploy to your own US cloud accounts, run final accessibility and performance checks, and hand over code, documentation and credentials. An on-site visit is available when it helps.

  5. Grow

    After launch we stay on for improvements, new features and performance marketing, with reporting in your hours and everything you paid for registered in your name.

FAQ

New York — questions we hear first.

No. OlDevs is a Vancouver studio and we serve New York remotely. Day-to-day work happens over video calls scheduled in Eastern hours, with a shared staging environment and weekly demos. When a project benefits from being in the room, for a kickoff, a workshop or a launch, we travel to you.

Yes. New York is three hours ahead of Vancouver, so your 12:00 to 17:30 lines up with our 9:00 to 14:30. We book meetings and demos inside that window and handle deep work outside it, which means you often see overnight progress waiting for you the next morning.

We build to the New York SHIELD Act, which sets data-security and breach-notification duties for anyone holding residents' private information. New York has no comprehensive consumer-privacy statute as of our last review, so we apply reasonable safeguards throughout and follow NYC-specific rules where you employ people or manage property. We are developers, not lawyers, and work alongside your counsel.

Yes. We deploy to US cloud regions, typically US-East for New York clients, in accounts opened in your name. Backups, logs and monitoring stay in the same jurisdiction, and you keep full ownership of the infrastructure and every credential from the first day.

Web app development for financial services and real estate, content and commerce platforms for media and fashion, and AI development for search, tagging and predictive analytics. Performance marketing, especially paid search, paid social and CRO, often runs alongside a rebuild.
