Software can be super intimidating because unless you're a developer, it's difficult to tell who's giving you good advice. Maybe you've already experienced a costly false start with developers and haven't yet found a team you trust. This is precisely why we started Melty. 100% of our clients are word-of-mouth referrals by people in our personal and professional networks. We invest a significant amount of time up front understanding your business and your goals before we put a proposal in front of you to make sure we find the most cost effective, extensible, and low-maintenance path for your project.

Our development team is located in Espírito Santo, Brazil, a state known for its top engineering schools, including Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo. The area is not a metropolitan hub where Facebook, Google and other large companies have offices, so we don't compete with Big Tech for talent. This means we can hire talented developers, pay our team well, and deliver high-quality, affordable software to you.

Unlike Europe, India, Russia, or Southeast Asia, Brazil's timezone is only 1-4 hours away from anywhere in the continental US. This enables our team to work US hours and stay in continuous contact with you via Slack, Zoom, or whatever comms tools you prefer. For many clients, we are an extension of their development teams, so many of our developers attend clients’ daily standup calls, participate in planning meetings, and stay in continuous contact with project managers, marketing managers, and scrum masters. The team speaks excellent English, so we’ll get most of your jokes.
