Our work - Consistent results building software so clients get unstuck.

Clients come to us trying to solve real-world problems, but they're stuck. They don't have access to the data they need. They need someone to come in and fix a project that stalled. They need software that will scale to support their growth.

Time and again, Cedar Labs listens to client's describe their problems, and then thinks outside the box to right-size a solution, often using enterprise-grade software, which will scale to their needs today, tomorrow, and years from now.

Explore a selection of our client case studies to better understand how we could do the same for you.

Backend, Infrastructure, API

Delivered a secure third-party API platform for a restaurant loyalty company in 14 weeks.

Barn Owl, a loyalty and payments platform serving 1,000+ restaurants across multiple cities, needed to expose APIs to third-party developers for the first time.

Cedar Labs delivered the complete 3P API platform in 14 weeks — OAuth 2.0 authentication, API gateway with rate limiting, isolated infrastructure, public REST endpoints, and a developer POC mini-app — with two senior engineers working in parallel across infrastructure and application development.

Accounting Firm PE Rollup

Website Funnel

Fullstack Development, AI Engineering

AI-powered lead generation app scoring website design quality across thousands of businesses.

A marketing founder needed a tool to identify businesses with poorly designed websites and turn them into qualified leads for web design services.

Beaver Markets

Serverless CMS for SSR HTML Widgets

The existing backend was built on Java, showing its age, and becoming costly to maintain.

Cedar Labs built a new serverless CMS was lower cost, nearly no maintenance, and had a flawless migration in record time.

We were struggling with the old system both with costly hosting and also maintenance hours. Cedar Labs was able to migrate us to a CMS without downtime and much lower cost.

Antique Auctions

Crawling

Two decades of data saved before their vendor deleted it all.

An elderly group of collectors was in a pinch, their longtime vendor was going out of business and was going to delete their historical data.

Cedar Labs was able to crawl it all in time and preserve it.

We had really started to worry, many members were asking questions. One had suggested trying to find a programmer on Fiver but I wasn't comfortable with that. Cedar Labs were very professional in discussing our problem and how it could be solved, and managed to get it all done in less time than expected.

Searchable journalist database

Press relations teams need to be able to contact the press.

Pressbook makes it easier with more accurate data and a better user experience.

I had an idea for a better journalist database. Cedar Labs was able to build it and were professional and competent. No complaints.
