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.
Mobile Development, Frontend, AI Integration

Native Android and iOS apps for a US neobank — shipped in 6 weeks.

Landing Page, Branding, Domain & Email
Professional web presence, branding, and email for a chauffeured transportation service.
A chauffeured transportation company was operating without a website, relying entirely on word of mouth and a personal phone number.
Cedar Labs built a complete digital presence from scratch — a modern landing page showcasing services and fleet, professional business card design, custom domain registration, and branded email hosting — delivered in a single engagement.
I was running my business on referrals alone. Cedar Labs gave me a real online presence — website, email, cards, the works — and now new clients actually find me. It feels like a real company now.
OpenClaw Deployment, AI Automation, Workflow Automation

A local jewellery shop was spending nights and weekends on bookkeeping, marketing, and operational chores instead of serving customers and growing the business.
Cedar Labs deployed OpenClaw, our open-source automation platform, to handle accounting reconciliation, sales tracking, social media scheduling, and customer communications — freeing up 15+ hours per week.
I used to spend my evenings doing QuickBooks and my Sunday mornings scheduling Instagram posts. Now OpenClaw handles all of it. I actually get to focus on designing jewellery and talking to customers. It has been truly life-changing for my small business.

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.
