The tech team you wish you'd hired the first time
We're a firm built by entrepreneurs, for entrepreneurs. After 9 years and 150+ apps, we've learned that building great software isn't just about code. It's about understanding your business, your users, and what it actually takes to grow.
“We've worked with a number of freelancers and agencies over the years and ThinkNimble has been by far our favorite to work with. They truly feel like an extension of our engineering team. They bring value not just to the technology, but in helping to grow our business.”
Max Friedman, Founder & CEO — Givebutter

Many ways to work with us
Every startup is different, and so is every project we take on. Sometimes we're embedded with your team, collaborating daily on complex technical challenges. Other times we're exploring uncharted territory, building AI-powered features or experimenting with new approaches. And sometimes you just need something built fast and built right.
We don't just build apps. We help you build a business.
Build With Us
Think of us as a full-service senior engineering team you hire that plugs in alongside the rest of your company. We (and, of course, our AI agents) write a lot of code, yes, but that's honestly the easy part. The hard parts? Honest conversations about your roadmap, interviewing your first engineering hire, pitching the architecture to an investor. That's where we can really support.

EdSights: From Seed Stage to $80M
Built the AI chatbot platform from day one (dropout prediction, SMS engagement, data dashboards) that grew to 250+ universities and the #6 fastest-growing education company in America.
AI For Your Business
Every company is trying to figure out AI right now. We can help. Sometimes that means building a custom AI application: a RAG pipeline, a multi-agent workflow, an intelligent automation that replaces a manual process. We've done that many, many times. But sometimes it means sitting down with your team and figuring out how to use the AI tools that already exist. Which workflows benefit from AI? Where should you build custom vs. use off-the-shelf? How do you get your team actually using this stuff? We do both, and we'll be honest about which one you need.
“ThinkNimble was our long term partner during the start of our business. Their product process and efficient deployment schedule allowed us to focus on growing our business.”

Don't take our word for it
“They are not only an amazing, experienced team of software engineers, but they teach non-technical founders how to lead, manage, and hire a tech team. ThinkNimble has been nothing but trustworthy, honest, and clear from the very start. It was this 'No BS' factor that led us to choose them to build our MVP.”
Duff Archie
CEO, OffWeGo
“ThinkNimble allowed us to develop a tool on a fairly tight deadline, assisted us with creating all the content, and pushed changes as we needed them.”
Aaron Smith
Co-Founder, Savi
“Working with ThinkNimble is one of the greatest gifts a founder early in their journey can receive. You're met with world-class talent in every team member, and they connect genuinely with your project and your passion for it.”
Philip Deng
CEO, Grantable
“When we show our platform, people don't see it as a seed stage platform. When we talk to stakeholders about how the backend has been built and how we're thinking about scaling, it's like we had a team of 40 people thinking about all the things we had to prepare for so we didn't make the typical early stage startup mistakes.”
Rasheq Zarif
COO, Rewyre
“Leadership has proven they're accomplished entrepreneurs. They know this space. They've been incredibly helpful in helping us sift through a lot of common startup challenges for a first-time founder. From top to bottom, the team knows their stuff. They are at the cutting edge of innovation and continue to bring new and exciting ideas to the table.”
Jack Manfred
CEO, Julep
“Working with ThinkNimble is one of the greatest gifts a founder early in their journey can receive. You're met with world-class talent in every team member, and they connect genuinely with your project and your passion for it.”
