Launch Scout

Launch Scout was hired by Procter & Gamble to develop a mobile application aimed at promoting positive psychology and behavioral habits. The project was part of an incubator initiative and required a team that could provide mobile app development support. Launch Scout developed an MVP app for iOS, working closely with the client to understand the product's goals and unique value proposition. The team comprised two designers and one developer, who helped identify critical features and addressed user problems. The project, which cost around $50,000, ran from January to May 2022.

For Copper Books, a platform connecting authors and readers, Launch Scout provided backend support to develop their API in Elixir. The project was aimed at catching up backend development while training future engineering hires. The team from Launch Scout included a senior Elixir engineer and two junior Elixir engineers who were being trained in Elixir development. The project, which lasted for five months, successfully supported the client's team in launching their iOS app to market.

BeyondWill, an estate planning firm, engaged Launch Scout for feature development and mentoring junior developers. Tim, a senior Ruby on Rails developer from Launch Scout, made significant contributions to the project, including a comprehensive refactor of their core Person model and the development of a Revocable Trust feature. He also implemented a feature that streamlined data entry across related roles and contributed to AI-assisted data entry workflows. Tim's work significantly improved the platform's stability, scalability, and user experience, and his mentorship had a lasting impact on the junior developers.
