Services
What Lima Labs helps build.
Lima Labs focuses on web and mobile products where design, development, and product thinking need to stay close together.
Most work starts with a scoped build or a rescue/evolution engagement, then continues as maintenance and ongoing improvement when the product needs it.
Mobile Applications
Custom React Native and Expo apps for iOS and Android, built for offline-first workflows, field operations, and multi-role products that need to keep working in the real world.
Web Applications
Custom web apps, portals, and dashboards built with Next.js and modern backend stacks, designed for teams that need a product with structure, not a template site.
UX/UI Design
Interface design, flows, and design systems that sharpen product clarity, reduce friction, and make development easier to execute well.
Maintenance and Evolution
Ongoing care for live products, from bug fixes and feature work to performance, security, integrations, and dependency updates.
Consulting
Senior architectural and product guidance on stack decisions, scoping, and code review when a team needs clarity before making the next move.
Practical AI Support
AI-assisted workflows, automation, and internal tools applied where they reduce friction or improve delivery, without forcing AI where it does not belong.
