Senior-level engineering, built around your business
OCWebApps builds custom web apps, mobile apps, and websites for businesses that need software done right — not just done fast.
We love building software that makes a real difference
Great software starts with genuine care — for the craft, for the client, and for the problem being solved. We bring that energy to every project we take on, from the first discovery call through launch and beyond.
We partner closely with businesses to understand their goals, then build modern, scalable applications that help them get there. Senior-level engineering, direct collaboration, and a commitment to quality that shows in everything we ship.
Founder & Principal Engineer
James Baxter
James has spent 25+ years building production software, including contributions to Apple's ResearchKit — the open-source framework powering medical research apps used by millions worldwide. He founded OCWebApps to bring that same standard of engineering to businesses that deserve better than what most agencies deliver.
Contributed to software used by millions
ResearchKit is Apple's open-source framework that enables medical researchers to build iPhone apps for large-scale health studies. Contributing to it meant writing code that had to be correct — running on millions of devices, powering real clinical research. That experience shapes how every OCWebApps project is built: with the same rigor, the same attention to edge cases, and the same commitment to getting it right.
Good software is an investment, not an expense
You talk to the engineer
No project managers, no account reps. The person on your calls is the person writing your code — which means faster decisions and fewer misunderstandings.
Built to scale with you
The code we ship is clean, documented, and architected to grow with your business. Not a quick fix that needs replacing in a year.
Honest from the start
We scope projects thoroughly before work begins — so you know what you're getting, what it costs, and when it ships. No scope creep, no surprise invoices.
We're in it for the long run
Most of our clients come back for the next project. That only happens when the first one goes well. Your success is how we grow.
A straightforward process, start to finish
Discovery
We start by understanding your goals, users, and constraints — then map out a clear scope and timeline before writing a single line of code.
Design & Architecture
UI/UX design and technical architecture happen in parallel. You see what you're getting before we build it.
Build & Iterate
We build in focused sprints with regular check-ins. You have visibility into progress at every stage — no black boxes.
Launch & Support
We handle deployment, QA, and go-live. Post-launch support and ongoing development available as needed.
A good fit for the right kind of client
- Businesses that need a custom web app or internal tool built properly
- Startups that want senior engineering without the agency overhead
- Companies that have been burned by a previous dev shop and need it done right this time
- Teams that want a long-term engineering partner, not a one-off vendor
