Foraker Labs

Foraker Labs company overview

Foraker Labs is a Boulder-based Ruby on Rails development shop. We also build mobile apps for iPhone and iPad using Cocoa & Objective-C. Many of our projects involve a Ruby on Rails web application that “talks” to an iOS mobile app via Web Services.

We have a team of about 20 designers, developers, and user experience pros…as well as some folks who live and dream product strategy.

We build custom software. For many of our customers, there just isn’t an off-the shelf software product that’s been invented for what they are trying to do. In other cases, the off-the-shelf products add unnecessary cost and complexity.

We love design. To us, design means concepting, validating, beautifying, and executing. A beautiful web or mobile app is like a beautiful automobile: Sleek lines and a shiny finish are essential, but if it doesn’t perform like an extension of the driver’s body, it’s junk.
