Flyaps Reviews & Testimonials

Python Django Review from Andrew Stetsenko
We partnered with Flyaps to build the GlossaryTech Chrome Extension from scratch, including the backend for tech terminology analysis. The goal was to help recruiters, sales professionals, and other non-technical specialists in IT quickly understand the technical terms they encounter every day.The first release shipped back in 2017, long before today's AI tools were available off the shelf. Flyaps built a custom tokenization layer on top of NLTK library to resolve the ambiguity problem - distinguishing "Go" the language from "go to the shop," or "Swift" the framework from the adjective, while also correctly recognizing multi-token terms like "Ruby on Rails" or "Amazon Web Services". It was a pragmatic, precise solution that made the extension genuinely usable from day one.The outcomes have validated that early bet. GlossaryTech now holds "Featured" status in the Chrome Web Store, has passed 25,000 downloads, and consistently serves 10,000+ weekly active users and 2,000+ daily active users. For a niche professional tool, that level of organic, sustained engagement is rare - and it traces directly back to the technical foundation Flyaps put in place.Beyond the engineering, what stood out was how Flyaps engaged with the product itself. They contributed to architecture decisions, flagged edge cases early, and treated scope conversations with honesty rather than upsell. Communication was straightforward throughout, deadlines were met, and the codebase has held up well as we've extended the product over time.I'd recommend Flyaps to anyone looking for a partner who combines solid engineering with genuine product thinking. They've been central to GlossaryTech's success and continue to be a team we trust.

Software Development Review from Dariia Ryzhova
Our collaboration with Flyaps has lasted for several major projects, of which I personally worked with them on two. I am very satisfied with the level of expertise (both technical and domain), the involvement and responsibility of the teams, and the quality of delivery. We successfully brought 2 major products to life together. Flyaps teams have diverse specializations, so I had the opportunity to attract consultants from different fields: software developers, including high-level architects, DevOps, QA, and business analysts.The teams have a modern technology stack and are experienced in Agile development. This allowed for smooth integration with internal teams and processes. It is also important to note that Flyaps provides technical consulting on demand, and this was very valuable service as well. Overall, I can recommend working with Flyaps as a reliable and high-quality partner.
ТОВ ХОТНАЙТС's Review Sourced from Google
Flyaps delivered outstanding results for our e-commerce store! They built a visually stunning and high-performing website that perfectly captures our brand. Since launching, our site speed has improved by over 60%, and we've seen a noticeable increase in our conversion rate. Their team's technical expertise is top-notch, and the new admin panel they created has made managing our operations so much easier. I am happy to recommend this team of professionals.

Mobile App Development Review from Elvera Kaparchuk
SaveIT is receipt management on autopilot. You connect your email once, and we import your receipts, extract every line item with AI, categorize it, and sync it with QuickBooks. The AI isn't a feature of the product, it is the product. If it reads a receipt wrong, everything downstream is wrong. We brought Diffco in to work on that core. Since April they've worked on our AI models, fixed security problems in the platform, and helped us build a real strategy around where AI belongs and where a conventional solution is the better call. The most important change was measurement: extraction accuracy is now a number we evaluate every change against, instead of something we judge by trying a handful of receipts. They were also honest in a way I didn't expect from an AI firm. When we assumed a problem needed a stronger model, they showed us it was in our data. That saved us time and money. They continue to support the AI side of the product, and they're easy to work with; direct, technically deep, and clear about trade-offs.

AI Development Review from Ivan Pasichnyk
We brought Diffco in to deliver the AI and computer vision components for one of our clients, an image generation startup. Because the work sat inside our own client relationship, we needed a partner we could trust to operate at our standard without us managing them day to day - and that is exactly what we got. Diffco owned the technical approach, built the computer vision and AI layer, and delivered the full scope in three months, on schedule. The engineering quality was high, they raised the right questions early instead of late, and they handled the confidentiality the project required without us having to chase it. After delivery they stayed on to support the system, which mattered to us as much as the build itself. When you subcontract a technical project inside your own client relationship, the risk is that the partner makes you look bad. Diffco did the opposite. They've earned our trust and we'd work with them again.

AI Development Review from Oleg Sotnikov
Diffco built a complex, production-grade AI agentic system and backend for our client's fintech platform owning architecture, AI/ML components, and AI agents in a security- and compliance-sensitive environment. They delivered on time and within budget, communicated proactively, and operated like part of our own team, taking ownership and suggesting better solutions throughout. Deep AI/ML and senior backend expertise. We'd happily work with them again.

Software Development Review from Rick Tomsic
Global business segment growth is requiring technology to keep up with the increase. Our platform is designed to be scalable and able to be implemented across several nations. We collaborated with Closeloop Technologies to work with our staff in order to scale up the programme.An whole agile team is provided by Closeloop Technologies to participate in our programme. At first, we gave them the data in hopes that they would aid in our execution. They have combined Spring Boot, JavaScript, and AWS cloud technologies.The platform is a value stream and full-suite insurance lifecycle. It is an internal iterative software programme.Working with Closeloop Technologies is simple. They pick up new roles rapidly and possess agile team abilities that are industry standard. The staff not only fits right in, but they also contribute their knowledge and perspectives, making them a vital component of the programme.

Software Development Review from Henrique Dubugras
Services that had been slow or unavailable for weeks had to be brought back up. We must bring back our vital business role. After learning about our issue, the Closeloop project manager assigned a senior database specialist to address it. Our main programmer had a direct conversation with the database specialist of Closeloop after they listened to our problem and asked some follow-up questions. Within less than two hours, the solution to our issue had been verified and implemented.

Software Development Review from Bill Rogers
We occasionally utilize outsourced resources to increase our team's ability to satisfy the commercial demands of our clients. This time, my goal was to create and enhance the products we were providing to clients. Their engineers joined our own team to work on the project, creating MetaTrader-based software for our traders. They assisted us in creating and refining a suite of services that give our clients more functionality; up until that point, the solution had been erratic and unconventional. Their most recent endeavor was the development of an income trading module. We employed a scrum methodology with sprint deliverables and agile planning. Along with narrative points, we also used our in-house bug tracking application for project and task management. Everything was really accurate.

Empat Reviews & Testimonials

Mobile App Development Review from Angie Tromley-Morales, PMP
We hired Empat to design and build the MVP of House Caddy, a household management app that keeps receipts, warranties, manuals, and repair history in one place, with reminders for expiring warranties and maintenance. The product also helps homeowners prepare a full digital home history for future property transfers.Empat delivered end-to-end work: discovery, UX/UI design, Flutter mobile development, and a Python backend. They implemented a clear flow where users first create home appliances/systems and then attach documents and repairs to each item.A major highlight was Empats AI expertise. AI features simplify the entire user journey by auto-filling appliance details from photos/docs/links, assisting with utility provider setup, and importing contacts to speed up adding contractors. This reduced manual input and made onboarding fast and intuitive.Communication was excellent, with proactive brainstorming, clear sprint updates, and on-time delivery. The MVP is market-ready, early feedback is very positive, and Empat proved to be a reliable, product-driven partner with strong mobile, backend, and AI capabilities.

Mobile App Development Review from Vitalii Drach
We collaborated with this team to develop custom software for tracking our client base and analyzing performance metrics. The solution allows us to monitor client success in real time, visualize key trends, and make data-driven marketing decisions.The Empat team was professional, communicative, and highly attentive to our needs. They quickly understood our workflow and created a system thats both intuitive and scalable. Thanks to their work, weve streamlined our internal processes and gained much better visibility into our clients results.Were very satisfied with the outcome and would definitely recommend Empat to anyone looking for a reliable software development partner.

Vention cultivated a seamless partnership through constant updates and a collaborative approach. Overall, their team’s well-rounded expertise was impressive.

We’ve been working with Vention for quite some time and consider them an extension of our team, rather than an offshore vendor. We needed solid mobile developers to work with our in-house engineers to build our Primer SDKs on both mobile platforms. This was not a trivial thing as it required a lot of cross-functional communication, but the Vention team was up to the challenge. They quickly adopted the best practices we follow at Primer and proved to be effective and proactive.

Aman Setia's Review Sourced from Google
The worst experience with the company. First they will call you and will ask you to go for 2 hours exam just like a half yearly or annual exam conducted during school time. After that they will ask you to wait for long. The interviewer will come and will ask only about your past company to attain it's strategies to move ahead and then they will ask you to go as we have a negative results regarding you. They will make you feel comfortable as if you will be selected and then the interviewer himself will be unsecured after seeing your profile, aa you are going to be a threat to them. As of now, they are not having any urgent requirements but calling you to waste your precious time only. Prefer not to go for an interview over here.

6 Frequently Asked Questions About Software Development Companies in California
What services does a software development company in California typically provide?
It offers the following custom software development services:
- Custom software development: Designing, building, and deploying software tailored to specific user needs or business requirements.
- Mobile app development: Building Android and iOS applications that leverage native device features such as Bluetooth, camera, and GPS for enhanced functionality.
- Web app development: Building software that lives on a remote server and is accessed through a web browser rather than being downloaded onto a device's hard drive.
- Website development: Designing and developing both the front-end and back-end of a website, with a focus on responsive layouts, intuitive interfaces, and practical features.
- Cloud development: Software developers in California craft bespoke programs that run on cloud environments and allow for secure and easy data retrieval and storage, while offering cloud consulting services too.
- Quality assurance: Conducting rigorous tests to identify and resolve potential issues and ensure the software solutions meet performance standards, user expectations, and regulatory requirements.
- Maintenance and support: Performing software updates to enhance security, functionality, and performance.
How much do these companies charge for software development services?
Software development pricing in California is among the highest in the United States, driven by talent demand in hubs like Silicon Valley, San Jose, and San Francisco. California sits at the top end globally, often 30-70%more expensive than offshore alternatives.
Costs vary widely by experience level, project scope, and specialization.
In top-tier markets, software developers in California charge $160-$275/hr.
Costs by project
- Small projects (MVPs, simple apps): $40,000-$80,000
- Mid-size platforms: $80,000-$150,000
- Complex systems (enterprise, AI, SaaS): $150,000-$300,000+
What is the Privacy by Design requirement in California?
Privacy by Design (PbD) in California is a core regulatory expectation embedded in the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA) and the California Consumer Privacy Act framework.
Privacy by Design requires software development companies in California to build privacy into systems from the start, not add it later, integrate privacy into software architecture, business processes, and data flows, and consider user privacy at every stage of development and data processing.
This requirement applies to web and mobile applications, data pipelines and analytics systems, and AI and automated decision-making tools.
How long does it take to complete a software development project in California?
The average timeline for a custom software development company in California ranges from 3 to 12 months, depending on the complexity and scope of the project. While AI-augmented development tools have increased coding velocity by nearly 40%, stricter California regulations (like the CCPA and new AI transparency laws) have added mandatory compliance and testing phases that offset those gains.
| Project type | Timeline | Key focus area |
| Minimum Viable Product (MVP) | 3-4 months | Core features only; rapid market entry. |
| Medium complexity SaaS | 6-9 months | API integrations, multi-user roles, and scaling |
| Enterprise-grade systems | 9-18+ months | Legacy migration, high security, and deep compliance. |
| AI-native platforms | 12-24 months | Model training, ADMT audits, and data lineage. |
Can I hire a California agency that uses offshore developers?
Yes, you can. Many top software developers in California use offshore or hybrid teams. In this setup, the agency usually keeps its strategy, design, and project management in California, while teams in Eastern Europe, Latin America, or Southeast Asia handle heavy-duty coding.
While the model is effective, California’s strict laws mean that a software development company in California must be the shield for your business. Even if developers are offshore, they may have access to your users' personal data. Under the 2026 CCPA rules, you must ensure the agency has Data Transfer Agreements in place. The data must be handled as if it never left California.
What is the ADMT regulation?
ADMT stands for Automated Decision-Making Technology. In the context of California law (specifically the CCPA/CPRA), it refers to any technology that uses computation to replace or substantially replace human involvement in making decisions about people.
As of January 1, 2026, new regulations from the California Privacy Protection Agency (CPPA) have officially taken effect, placing strict guardrails on how businesses use these tools. If the software solution you need uses AI to make decisions, a top software development company in California must provide a way for users to opt out and receive an explanation of the logic.
The regulation targets any system, including artificial intelligence, machine learning, and simple algorithms that process personal data to make a significant decision concerning a consumer.
This includes decisions related to:
- Employment: Hiring, compensation, or work allocation.
- Financial Services: Lending, insurance, or credit.
- Essential Services: Housing, healthcare, or education enrollment.
- Criminal Justice: Legal outcomes or profiling.
