A Fortune 1000 audiobook company partnered with us because they ran into problems with their app. It was one of the first apps in the App Store and the audiobook industry. Before the App Store, the client sold devices for users to listen to their books. Their app became difficult to maintain, which led them to do a complete revamp... More
A Fortune 1000 company hired us to help them overcome challenges that arose from an attempted rewrite of their legacy app.
They had already started modifying their app when they encountered some pitfalls. Our expert team stepped in to pave the way for a clean architecture that is simple and easy to maintain. This gave them the freedom to focus on beneficial features for their users.
Once they reached a certain level of maturity in this new direction, they could focus on efficiently accelerating development. In working with us, they realized that they could use our resources at a lower cost than hiring locals. As a Canadian company, we can offer a high quality of service at a lower price point. Our project managers, business analysts, designers, developers, and QA analysts have a solid understanding of North American business practices and expectations. They decided to use us to double their team size.
The approach that we recommended was to resolve issues in an evolutionary way as opposed to a revolutionary one. Our client was impressed by our technical knowledge and level of productivity. Today, the app is one that its users love. In fact, since our engagement, the app’s rating climbed from under three to almost five in the App Store.

A client came to us with an idea to migrate their business online. The mobile app was essential to their strategy, and they needed the design and architecture to be done right the first time. They wanted an expert team to guide them through the process.
We helped them with everything from choosing the best third-party components to understanding which features needed to be built and how they should be scaled at each project phase. Besides building them a beautiful interface with a thoughtful design, we also helped them navigate regulatory and security issues related to their industry. Along with designing a superior user experience, a key point of value that we delivered was helping them execute a strategic plan that let them scale their business over the long term.
With our decades of experience, we created an app that became so successful in a short amount of time that the client is already looking to go public.

Our partnership with one of the largest banking institutions in the US dates back to 2015. The Fortune 500 bank wanted a unique and customized app that empowered their financial advisors to stay more engaged with clients and access key information on demand. The resulting app won the 2017 Technology Innovation Award from the Bank Insurance and Securities Association (BISA)... More
In 2021, we were excited to do a series of workshops with the same financial institution to find out how we could revamp their existing consumer-facing banking app that serves millions of clients. During discovery, we learned that their key concerns were improving the usability, simplifying the volume of data consumption, meeting accessibility requirements, and visualizing complex financial data in an easy-to-understand way.
We mapped out a project roadmap to build, launch, and maintain a new mobile app with a significantly enhanced and intuitive user experience while improving the performance of the app. The native solution comprises the latest Android and iOS technologies that will ensure the longevity of the operating system. As a result, the overall solution maintenance costs will be reduced over the next decade while.
As experts in mobile solutions for the fintech industry, we were also able to demonstrate our ability to fulfil all the regulatory requirements that banking institutions need to adhere to. This includes accessibility, testing, and security, among other key factors. Besides maximizing device coverage and testing to ensure quality, we also partnered with actual end-users of the product and testers who have different disabilities to report insights of the app’s usability accurately to provide the best user experience to all their clients.
During the project’s first phase, we recreated all the existing features that is fundamental to the success of their business. We used human-centred design methodology, working closely with the end users, subject matter experts, and stakeholders to enhance the flow of information and navigation in an agile way.
The next iteration will focus on adding extended features such as trading capability, goal planning, and gamification principles which will not only make the app more accessible than its predecessor, but also more engaging and intuitive. As a native app solutions company with over two decades of experience in the industry, we’ve demonstrated our ability to stay at the forefront of mobile app solutions. We take pride in leading the way in mobile application excellence and customer satisfaction.

In 2012, a client in the construction supply industry came to us with a challenge. They wanted an app to help civil, infrastructure, and construction professionals save time, conduct complex calculations, automate the design specification process, and eliminate paperwork.... More
The client asked us to work on two separate product verticals. Our first app was a digital catalog for their broad range of foundation and geo-structural products. The second was to reimagine the way that users interfaced with their tubular steel client portal and accessed functionality they needed while on the go.
The first app that we rebuilt guided users through a series of decisions to streamline the quote generation process. One of the major challenges was transforming the way the client processed data for their app catalog. The client used large Excel spreadsheets describing all the rolled steel types, their variations, and images, which was a significant amount of data. The solution we created parsed the “database” of their product lines into a data model and catalog that users could browse through.
We also developed a range of calculators that gives users a list of all the related materials they would need for their project. The process of making these calculators dynamic was complex as a non-linear workflow had to be completed to give users the right set of related products and the next set of decisions they had to make. Our developers and UX designers were able to come up with a way to guide users through the decision-making process, validate the scope of their project and the materials needed, and the ability go back to tweak the parameters to update the quote. The result was a simplified process that enabled users to send a complete list of the materials they needed to get a quote from a salesperson.
With the second app, the challenge was to try to give mobile users all the desktop functionality on a small device. Multiple tables and data interacted with each other, which took smart UX concepts to display this in a visually compelling way. We were able to come up with a way to break down the steps so that mobile users would easily understand the workflow to overcome the small footprint of the device.
The result of the projects are two intuitive apps that eliminate and significantly shorten many manual processes for quotes, orders, shipments, and deliveries. The ability to provide on-the-go access to product information and tools through extensive data analysis capabilities, and a streamlined mobile interface makes this a successful project that we are proud to be a part of.

In 2009, one of the largest retailers of computers and electronic products approached us with a problem that was a head-scratcher at the time: how do we digitally recreate what we’re doing in-store?... More
Today, virtually everyone from handmade crafters to global retailers can easily find drop-and-drag features to sell and distribute products online. Since the pandemic, consumers’ self-service needs have exploded with features like BOPIS (buy online, pickup in-store),virtual queues, and mobile scan-and-go, to name a few.
Back in 2009, however, the mobile retail space looked very different. Our client’s challenges ranged from digitizing a POS system with no product pictures to developing a multi-channel experience that consistently reflected what they offered in their 130 store locations.
As our first multinational e-commerce retail app of this scale, we had questions: What would it cost consumers to download an app with thousands of product pictures pre-loaded, considering limitations such as constrained bandwidth and expensive data plans? How would we recreate the in-store retail experience, which included a physical interaction with products, into a digital one?
To overcome the challenge of getting users to wait for thousands of pictures to download each time they used the app, we pre-loaded the bulk of the product inventory images onto the app. Each time they used the app, a smaller number of pictures were added as the client’s product catalog grew. After successfully creating an app that had the client’s extensive product range interfacing with a complex backend environment, we were able to focus on digitizing the brand experience.
Buying consumer electronics was traditionally a very experiential experience. Besides wanting to test out a TV, computer, or phone in-store, consumers would typically seek the advice of in-store employees. We did user research to understand the consumers’ expectations better and realized we would have to put a lot of consideration into the digital self-service tools. The app we created was one of the first to effectively showcase the broadest range of consumer electronics along with easy-to-use information. We designed it for speed so they could make purchases quickly.
The user-centered design principles that we used for this project are the same ones we use today. Creativity and innovation are at the forefront, whether we’re defining features for clients’ apps, planning the workflow, or completely reimagining a mobile experience. Many times, the products we build are first-of-its-kind in the market and the way we build them later become the status quo for future apps within the same industry and beyond.
Not long after the launch of the app, the company was rebranded by its parent company. The entire app needed to be revamped while maintaining the app’s functionalities and integration into the marketplace. Adding complexity to the transition was that some stores were still branded with the predecessor’s branding while others had already completed the changeover to the new brand.
Our passion and desire to keep the client at the forefront of technology aligned with theirs. Our designers and developers went back to the drawing board and held problem-solving workshops until we came up with a completely new way to overcome this challenge.
We developed different versions of the white-labeled app where we could replace everything from the accent colors to the text for the two brands. The endpoints and web services were also unique to different stores. At the time, this wasn’t a standard development approach, which meant that Atimi was one of the first to consider white-label app architecture and develop a truly white-labeled app.
The white-labeling of the apps was completed a year later, and it set them up for growth and expansion into new markets.
Today, the brand continues to lead the way as one of the most popular multi-channel electronics retailers. Many of their competitors haven’t survived big changes in the industry such as the mobile revolution and the pandemic. With over 280 million visits in-store and online each year, we are proud to have been involved in creating the platform that helps consumers equip their homes with the latest technology and entertainment solutions.
