WHAT WE DO & Our Guiding
Manifesto
Clients' Success is Our Mission. Through empathy-driven design, simplicity, and elegance, we empower businesses to thrive. Committed to excellence, transparency, and ethical practices, we deliver impactful solutions that drive results.
OUR STORY
Agory, Founded in San Francisco in 2019, Agory operates with a core team of 10 experts, supported by a global network of over 100+ offshore professionals across two international hubs.
We tailor our teams to fit the unique needs of each project, blending creativity, management, and technology to deliver flexible, high-quality solutions. By combining a local leadership team that directly engages with clients and offshore experts who execute specialized tasks, we offer a powerful and cost-effective model.
This hybrid approach allows for significant cost savings by leveraging offshore talent at lower rates without compromising on quality or expertise. Our local team ensures seamless communication and deep understanding of client needs, while our offshore experts provide rapid execution, helping you achieve faster turnaround times and improved productivity.
With this model, we scale efficiently—whether partnering with Fortune 500 companies, emerging brands, or startups—delivering specialized talent on a global stage. This combination ensures that your project benefits from the best of both worlds: local market insights and leadership, combined with the cost-effectiveness and scalability of a global production team. The result is increased speed, reduced overhead, and a more agile approach to development and delivery.
MEET THE TEAM
Strategists, designers, developers, dreamers, and doers – that’s us! We’ve heard we’re a blast to collaborate with. Here’s a sneak peek of the awesome folks you’ll get to know when you join forces with us.
Human-Centered Design
Focusing On People’s Real Needs
The user is central to our design philosophy. For every screen we design and build, the person interacting with that screen is top of mind. What are their needs? More importantly, what are the behaviors motivating those needs? By taking a human-centered design approach, we are able to better anticipate and meet people’s expectations as they interact with your business and products.
To achieve this, we conduct thorough foundational research before we even begin to think about design. This allows us to really understand the people you’re trying to reach and how to successfully engage them with your product or service. From there, we use our findings as a guide to design in a way that solves your problem and meets the user’s needs in the simplest way possible.
Agile Software Development
Blending Agile With Offshore
Agile software development allows teams to deliver quickly, collaborate often, and continually improve their product. We take a slightly modified approach to the Agile methodology that maximizes those benefits while utilizing a hybrid offshore model.
Our technical teams in Pune, India and Islamabad, Pakistan are 100% fluent in English and have adapted their workday to 4-12pm local time (4 am–noon PST). This makes communication a breeze and allows for a four-hour overlap with our U.S. based account managers, solutions architects, project managers, and designers. We conduct daily standups via Google Hangouts that keep everyone collaborating and on the same page — even if they’re not in the same office, city, or even country.
Secure Delivery
Where Secure Delivery Meets Efficiency
Effective security protocols should strike a balance between protecting data and creating a seamless process for users that imposes as little friction as possible. The more cumbersome a security process, the more likely someone may leave an important password or key code on a post-it note at their desk. That simple error in judgment puts an entire system at risk of a breach.
By utilizing tools like role-based access control with single sign-on, we ensure that people have access to what they need in an efficient manner. We control access to source code in a very similar way. We consider security and privacy during every step of the development process — from single, standalone applications to cloud infrastructure. Additionally, our support teams can monitor your system post-launch, keeping an eye on any suspicious patterns. Should we detect any odd activity, we offer guidance on steps to minimize any potential damage.
Risk Management
Stopping Roadblocks Before They Happen
Identifying potential risks at the start of — and during — any software project is critical to the success of the project. Risks can come from any source — from budget and cost, from schedule, from technology, and from people. Our risk management team has experience identifying and dealing with those, as well as other risks to ensure continuity should an unforeseen issue pop up in the middle of a project.
Our team proposes, validates, and implements solutions that make the most sense for the project. Additionally, we monitor resource capacity. With multiple projects in flight simultaneously, it’s crucial that we have the right people with the right skillset available to meet our clients ’needs and keep projects on track.
