AK Launch builds custom software for businesses whose work doesn’t fit off-the-shelf tools — internal operations platforms, customer-facing applications, and integrations between systems that were never meant to talk to each other. Shipping since 2014, with security and compliance designed in from the first architecture conversation rather than bolted on before launch.
What we build
- Internal operations platforms — sales pipelines, job costing, scheduling, supervision, reporting: the systems a business actually runs on.
- Customer and partner-facing applications — portals, catalogs, and self-service tools.
- Integrations between systems that don’t natively talk — EDI and X12, payer and vendor portals, and third-party APIs.
- Multi-tenant platforms serving many organizations from a single codebase — see enterprise platforms.
- AI capability inside any of the above — from HIPAA-compliant AI to operational agents that run gated workflows.
How we build it
- AI assists our engineers in writing, reviewing, and testing code — compressing timelines without compressing review.
- A senior engineer reviews every line before it ships. AI speeds the typing; experienced people own the outcome.
- Automated and mutation testing keep quality high while the build moves quickly.
- Encryption, role-based access, and audit logging are part of the initial architecture, not a retrofit.
- Infrastructure-as-code and hardened, HTTPS-only hosting from the first deploy.
How an engagement works
We start by mapping your workflows and security requirements, then design the architecture together before a line of code is written. The build runs in short, visible iterations — AI-assisted, senior-reviewed — so you see working software early rather than at the end. Before launch we harden and test the system, and afterwards we can monitor, maintain, and host it for you.
Who owns what
You do. Everything we build for you — source code, infrastructure definitions, and documentation — belongs to your organization, and it is yours to take elsewhere at any point.
Who it is for
Healthcare, fintech, manufacturing, and enterprise teams that have outgrown spreadsheets and generic SaaS, and need software shaped around their own operation. See the operations platform we built for a commercial LED contractor and the catalog, CRM, and EDI work for a diagnostics manufacturer.
