Our Mission

At Northern Devs, we are on a mission to create an approachable, transparent, and consistent way for technical and non-technical founders to take control of their business idea without the need for technical overhead or a large runway of funding. Accessibility, equity, and inclusivity are at the forefront of how we serve our clients, and we believe anyone should have access to launch their tech business. We’re working to remove gatekeeping in the tech space and making website and app building accessible for all humans.

Our Values

01.

Communicate without judgement.

Be direct, be open, and be transparent. Every team needs open and honest communication to thrive, and as a Launchpadder, overcommunication is seen as a positive.

02.

You can have fun AND get sh*t done.

Our policy is get things done that require urgency, but we encourage time for fun every single day.

03.

Small ideas can lead to big innovation.

Big or small, every idea is important. We want every team member to feel comfortable sharing their ideas. Some of the smallest ideas lead to the greatest strides in innovation, and we’re here for that!

04.

Embrace every learning opportunity.

We are continuously building our knowledge through channel partners and content, because a startup never grows alone.

05.

Always forward thinking.

Forward thinking is how we make moves. Every journey starts with a plan that involves the next 10 steps ahead.

“Northern Devs demonstrated remarkable expertise and professionalism in building our app, exceeding our expectations in every way. We now have a cutting-edge product that has greatly enhanced our SaaS company's offerings.”

“Northern Devs quickly and easily used their tools to produce a product fit to test the market I had found with my lean canvas! After I proved the idea worked, I took it to the next level, and they were able to develop a full app for us!”

“Northern Devs are great technical partners. They plan and manage everything while constantly communicating, especially at blockers, to find solutions. Would highly recommend them to any company.”

"Northern Devs was great! They used their Launchpad platform to give us a way to validate our market. Now we can focus on growing our business and preparing for pitching to investors, not building tech we aren’t familiar with!"

"Stephen from Northern Devs made my website development process easy! Being that I’m not super techy, it was great that he took the time to learn about my website needs and helped me realize my idea. I’d recommend them for this kind of work and much more!"
