Bringing ideas to life.
Independent software studio & business servicesAnimora Labs launches new ideas, builds custom systems for businesses that already run, and handles the back-office administration behind them. Small studio, senior work, no agency drag.
An idea that isn't a business yet. A running business with a process that should be software. Or a running business drowning in the administration. Different problems, different tracks, one team. Mix them or take one.
For new ideas and startups. Websites, MVPs, and mobile apps that get an idea in front of real people: accounts, payments, app stores, and brand. Built small and shipped early, on purpose. This is what the studio was founded to do.
For businesses already running. Custom software built around how you actually work: dashboards, admin consoles, client portals, quoting tools, and QuickBooks-connected invoicing. In production in ten business days.
Administration, run for you. Bookkeeping, monthly close, invoicing, payroll administration, benefits through a licensed broker, contracts and SOPs, and a systems audit that tells you what to fix first.
Plenty of clients have us build the system and run the back-office behind it at the same time. Others take exactly one track and nothing else. Both are normal, and neither is a bundle you're pushed into.
Start a conversationProducts and platforms we've built: a live pick'em platform, a three-game sports-sim suite, a fintech planning system and a tiered sitter-coordination app in pre-alpha, plus a favorite client build, a full site rebuild for a financial advisory practice. All built end to end.
A sports pick'em platform for private pools. Friends, coworkers, and leagues make weekly picks across the NFL, college football and basketball, soccer, and more, with live odds, automatic scoring, and running standings. Free to play, with a Pro tier for deeper stats and commissioner tools.
A three-game suite of browser-based sports GM sims (football, basketball, and baseball) with one shared account system, cloud saves, and a $5 Pro unlock. Built as dependency-free single-file apps on a Supabase and Stripe backend.
A financial planning platform for independent advisors offering Monte Carlo retirement projections, investment and insurance modeling, cash-flow planning, and client-ready reporting, built on a modern type-safe stack with row-level security from day one.
Tiered babysitting and pet-sitting coordination for family and friends. A parent posts a sit and the people closest to them get notified first. If nobody in that tier can help, the offer escalates outward on its own, no group text required.
A full site rebuild for an independent financial advisor, migrated off Wix, compliance-preserved down to the disclosure text, with a gated client portal and Max, a custom AI concierge connected to a real Claude-powered assistant.
Every track runs the same shape. We agree what "done" means and what it costs before anything is built, then we build it in the open. On the Systems track that whole arc is ten business days.
A short conversation to understand the goal, the constraints, and what "done" looks like. You get a plain-language plan and a fixed quote, before you commit.
We shape the structure and the look before writing the bulk of the code, so you can react early, when changes are cheap.
Senior hands-on-keyboard work against your real data, with steady check-ins. You see progress as it ships, not at some far-off reveal.
We deploy it, wire the domain, test it on real devices, and hand you something you actually own, plus the notes to run it.
Animora Labs is small on purpose. There is no account manager between you and the person writing the code, and no layer of process invented to justify a bigger invoice.
