We've worked with enough operators in Gladstone to know that the brief that arrives in our inbox is rarely the brief that ends up shipped. The first thing we do on any mobile apps project is sit with your team for a day before we propose anything.
For Gladstone operators who want a working pilot in weeks, not a year-long programme.
What mobile apps actually does
A real app on the App Store and Google Play, built around the one job your customers or crew need it for. Bookings, job cards, photo capture, quotes, loyalty, whatever the business actually runs on, with the AI wired in behind it.
- 01 One codebase for iOS and Android, so you are not paying twice
- 02 We handle App Store and Google Play submission and review
- 03 Works offline in the ute, syncs when the signal comes back
- 04 Push notifications your team will actually read, not noise
Built on: React Native Expo Swift Kotlin Supabase Cloudflare Workers

Why Gladstone businesses are a fit for this.
- Gladstone is heavy industry - LNG, alumina and one of the biggest ports in the country, which sets an industrial compliance bar every supplier has to clear.
- LNG trains, alumina refining, a major bulk port and a large industrial contracting sector. Safety documentation and supplier prequalification are the single largest admin load for local businesses.
We work with teams across Gladstone: Gladstone CBD · Calliope · Boyne Island · Tannum Sands · Clinton.

How we build mobile apps for a Gladstone team.
We scope narrow, ship a working pilot, then harden it into production. The first slice is the highest-leverage workflow for your Gladstone business, so value lands before the build is finished. IOS and Android apps.
Talk to usThe outcome for Gladstone teams
Most first releases are in the stores inside 8 weeks, not 8 months. For Gladstone teams, that almost always shows up as fewer interruptions and a calmer week, not a dashboard chart.
Not your typical AI agency.
Honest about what AI can and cannot do
Ships the one workflow that pays for itself
Hours given back, never the size of the invoice
*Every engagement is scoped and quoted up front. Results vary by workflow and business.
FAQ
When does mobile apps actually pay back?
Inside the first quarter, in our experience. We pick the first slice specifically because it's the highest-leverage workflow for a Gladstone - so the savings start landing before the rest of the build is finished.
Do you do hourly billing or fixed price?
Fixed price for the pilot, every time. After that it's your call - fixed price per milestone or a small monthly retainer for ongoing iteration. We don't run open-ended T&M because it disincentivises us from finishing.
Anyone else in this space using mobile apps?
Plenty. Most first releases are in the stores inside 8 weeks, not 8 months. The interesting question is rarely "does it work" - it's "is your team ready to use the output." That's what we'd scope on the call.
Will this run on our own infrastructure?
Yes, where it makes sense. Mobile apps can sit entirely in your cloud account, with model calls routed through endpoints you control. We default to React Native, Expo, Swift, Kotlin, Supabase, Cloudflare Workers but the architecture supports your existing platform choices.
