When my husband and I first met, it was a perfect mix of business and romance that sparked our connection. Our shared love for startups, tech, and business laid the groundwork for our relationship. I remember our first date, during which he animatedly expressed his devotion to creating SaaS products. Our evenings were a mix of dates and work sessions, as we delved into our projects. While I focused on my social media consultancy, he poured his energy into his web development agency, with series playing in the background. Ah, the nostalgia of those days!
In 2010, we merged our businesses to create Wixel Software Solutions —a partnership that's still going strong. Then, in early 2022, we decided to rebrand ourselves as Machine Republic, doubling down on data, machine learning, and AI while stepping away from angel investing and other projects we once dabbled in.
As a company that's been around the block, we know the struggles of bringing new software products to life. From idea to launch, we've managed various projects, serving millions of users and handling thousands of servers.
Today, Machine Republic is a boutique custom software development studio. We pride ourselves on crafting tailored solutions for new products and early-stage businesses. With a focus on quality over quantity, we meticulously handpick a limited number of projects each year to ensure client satisfaction.
Software development is all about people. Without great clients and a stellar team, success is hard to come by. As a company, we’ve been lucky to work with amazing clients and assemble an exceptional team. Our success comes down to our talented team. Each member brings a unique blend of skills, experience, and accountability. With a core team and a network of contractors, we can tailor our approach to each project's needs. Diversity is and always has been at our core. We have been a remote-first company with a global team since inception, and we've perfected our remote working processes throughout the years.
Our recipe for success has been bringing together skilled creators and savvy entrepreneurs. I admire individuals with astute business acumen and a drive for success. Whether you're venturing into tech entrepreneurship or addressing intricate challenges, strategic software investments can yield incredible outcomes. Every day, clients continue to inspire me.
