Client testimonials mention work on cross-platform SaaS applications using React Native and Expo, with one reference noting a developer joined a larger frontend team and adhered to DevOps practices while completing assigned tasks with quality.

How they work

SMT Labs uses three engagement models: Agile development with sprints of 1-4 weeks and retrospectives; Fix Scope projects with clearly defined requirements, timelines, and fixed costs agreed upfront; and Extended Team (remote hire) options with part-time (40-80 hours/month), full-time (160 hours/month managed by a project manager), or fixed-price models. Their work process starts with a 1-hour intro call (deliverable: NDA and consultation), followed by discovery and analysis (up to 3 days, outputs project proposal), design phase (about 1 month, outputs wireframes, low-fidelity prototype, feature-based estimation, and Figma graphics), development (timeline varies, includes environment setup, staging/production servers, weekly reports), product launch (about a week to submit to app stores), and post-launch support with a dedicated developer handling fixes and improvements. They respond to inquiries within 12 business hours.
