Why Ember

See what we'll build — before you pay.

We create a high-fidelity proof of concept of your project before any payment, then build it live where you can watch. The proof of concept establishes the visual and functional direction — full production development begins after your approval.

See It Before You Pay

We build a high-fidelity proof of concept before you pay a dime, so you can see the direction, reduce risk, and move forward with confidence.

Watch It Built Live

Follow your project through a private live link as we build, refine, and iterate — giving you visibility throughout development and much faster feedback loops.

Flexible Payment Plans

We structure projects around clear milestones and flexible payment arrangements that align with the project, timeline, and business needs.

Business First

We don't start with software.
We start with your business.

We learn how your company operates, meet the people closest to the work, identify bottlenecks and opportunities, and determine what technology will create the most value. Then, if there is something worth building, we can build it — custom-built for what you actually do, and yours to keep.

01

We Learn

How your company operates — the people closest to the work, your workflows, existing systems, bottlenecks, and goals.

02

We Recommend

The software, automation, or integration opportunities that will actually create value — not whatever is easiest to sell.

03

We Build

The right solution end-to-end — custom-built for your business, not a template — with you watching it come to life.

No consulting fee. No obligation. You pay only if you choose to move forward with a build.

Cari — AI Receptionist

Cari — AI Receptionist

AI & AutomationBusiness SystemsWebsites

Local businesses often lose valuable customers because they cannot answer every call, text, or online inquiry—especially after hours. Ember created Cari, an AI-powered receptionist that responds to calls, texts, and web chats 24/7, books appointments, captures leads, answers customer questions, and automatically handles follow-ups. Ember developed the complete Cari platform, including its customer-facing website, intelligent communication system, appointment-booking tools, CRM capabilities, multilingual support, and business management features. Cari gives businesses a dependable front desk that never clocks out—helping them capture more opportunities, reduce administrative work, improve customer service, and turn missed inquiries into revenue.

CalBud AI — AI Calorie & Macro Tracker

CalBud AI — AI Calorie & Macro Tracker

WebsitesAppsAI & Automation

Traditional calorie tracking is time-consuming, requiring users to search large food databases, estimate portions, and manually enter every meal. Ember created CalBud AI to make nutrition tracking faster, easier, and more sustainable through artificial intelligence. Ember built the complete iOS and Android application, customer-facing website, subscription system, and administrative platform. CalBud uses AI-powered image recognition to identify food and estimate calories and macronutrients from a photo, while also supporting barcode scanning, nutrition-label scanning, food search, progress tracking, hydration and weight logs, accountability groups, and personalized AI coaching. The result is a comprehensive wellness platform that transforms meal tracking from a repetitive chore into a quick, intuitive experience—helping users stay consistent, better understand their nutrition, and make more informed decisions about their health.

Netwing — Local Networking Platform

Netwing — Local Networking Platform

WebsitesApps

Local networking opportunities are often scattered across social media, websites, emails, and disconnected calendars, making it difficult for professionals to find events and for organizations to consistently engage their communities. Ember created Netwing as a centralized platform connecting local professionals with chambers, networking groups, service clubs, and business organizations. Ember built the complete attendee experience and organizational management system, including location-based event discovery, organization profiles, one-tap RSVPs, calendar integration, QR check-ins, member engagement tools, campaign management, and attendance analytics. Netwing makes local networking easier to discover while giving organizations the infrastructure they need to manage events, understand participation, strengthen member relationships, and grow their communities.

Biddl — AI Proposal & Job Management Platform

Biddl — AI Proposal & Job Management Platform

AI & AutomationApps

Contractors and service professionals often spend hours turning job-site notes, photos, and pricing information into professional proposals. Ember created Biddl to simplify the entire process—from the initial site walkthrough to client approval, project completion, and payment. Ember built the complete mobile application, web platform, and AI-powered proposal system. Users can capture job details through voice notes, photos, documents, and written instructions, then generate a professionally structured and branded proposal in seconds. Clients can review proposals, leave comments, approve the work, sign electronically, and submit payments directly through the platform. Biddl also provides customer management, job-status tracking, document storage, invoicing, and payment collection within one connected system. The result is a streamlined field-service platform that reduces administrative work, helps contractors respond to opportunities faster, presents a more professional customer experience, and moves projects from initial estimate to payment with fewer disconnected tools.
