About

We say “very good” a lot. About your ideas, mostly.

Since 2017, we’ve been the engineers, designers, and strategists who get unreasonably excited about other people’s products.

Partner programs

In their words.

“The VGV team created an unprecedented experience for Hamilton fans and has been a trusted partner since 2017. There’s no better team to help us give our fans incredible ways to connect with the show.”

CEO, Marathon Digital & Hamilton Marketing Mike Karns
“We proudly copied as much as we could from VGV into our own team culture — it’s been phenomenal.”

VP Engineering, Keller Williams Realty Chris Synan
“At one point, I asked one of my team members for their opinion on how the integration was going, and they said, ‘I don’t know where our team ends and their team begins.’”

Director of Engineering, Slickdeals Christopher Gulliver
“We are really happy with the attentiveness and the professionalism [VGV’s] people are putting into our app. I know people care about it and they’re invested in it.”

Director of Enterprise, Scooter’s Coffee Andy Henrichsen

Hamilton

Google introduced our founding team to a pre-alpha framework called Flutter, and Hamilton’s app launched on it, the first commercial Flutter app outside Google. Hamilton is still a client.

The car, the interface, and the workflow

Flutter infotainment ships in the Toyota RAV4, the GenUI Kit goes live, and our AI engineering workflow goes open source.

Every chapter started the same way: someone asked “can this even be done?” and we got to find out.

A few things we hold ourselves to, written down so you can hold us to them too.

Boring code is a compliment.

A retro sticky note once said “This codebase is boring!” We framed the idea.
Standards scale. People don’t.

Every project starts from the same foundation, and we publish the handbook we work from.
AI does the typing. People own the decisions.

We use every tool that makes your release faster, and years of shipping tell us where the shortcuts break.
Leave teams better than we found them.

The best compliment is a client team that keeps raising the bar after we roll off.

It means a premium experience inside and out, and we keep it by living our values every day.
