Webcarving

Webcarving is a mobile and web development shop founded in 2014 with a development center in India and a business office in Las Vegas. The company builds native iOS and Android apps, responsive websites, and handles design and QA for clients ranging from startups to mid-market enterprises. They explicitly don't build games; their rule is "we only do what we do best," and they work across healthcare, insurance, finance, hotel management, banking, engineering, real estate, and government sectors.

Clients like OrcaParts, Perceptoinc, Clickcell, Mila Wholesale, and Elegant Stories have shipped live products through Webcarving. The company advertises a fixed-price model with no cost overruns: "When we offer you a price for the project, that's the price... We WILL NOT EXCEED the top cap of the estimate."

Services and capabilities

Webcarving's work splits into four main areas. Mobile development covers native iOS (Swift, Objective-C, UIKit, CoreData, MapKit) and Android (Java, Material Design, Firebase, Retrofit, Dagger 2, RxJava) apps for phones, tablets, and wearables. They specialize in client-server architecture but will build other app types. For web development, they focus on PHP backends paired with Laravel, WordPress, or Joomla for CMS work, and front-end frameworks including React, Vue, and Angular. They've built e-commerce platforms on Magento, Shopify, Opencart, and Prestashop. Quality assurance includes functional testing, UI testing, performance testing, load testing, and device testing on real hardware. UI/UX design is integrated into their full development cycle; designers deliver 1–2 screens per day and prototype workflows using Invision.

Notable work

OrcaParts (CTO Mike Bozorgi) hired Webcarving after interviewing shops across multiple countries, calling it "the best decision we have made so far for the business." Perceptoinc's CEO Vlad Klepach commissioned four "sophisticated websites, all involving extensive database cost," and noted the team "really get[s] it." Clickcell founder Wu Zhongyi said he came to Webcarving with just an idea, and "everything that has been done and all design was only the work of Webcarving." Mila Wholesale had them build a wholesale platform, optimize a Shopify store, and implement inventory tracking. Elegant Stories had Webcarving develop "functionality of our online website gallery" and highlighted their speed and quick responses to issues.

How they work

Webcarving follows a five-step process. They start with an initial interview to understand app requirements, users, and platform choices. Next, they assign a dedicated success manager who produces specifications and mockups on paper before code begins. Design work follows: graphic artists deliver 1–2 screens daily with feedback loops, and the team builds a clickable prototype in Invision. Development happens in 1–2 week sprints with demo builds and QA testing on real devices at the end of each sprint. Finally, they handle app store submission and release—they say they've "done this process literally hundreds of times." They emphasize early release with core features only, then iterate based on user data and analytics. The company commits to direct access: "You can talk to anyone in the team directly," and won't require large upfront deposits.
