Operatic

Operatic is a full-service development agency founded in 2017, offering design, development, and data/analytics under one roof. The agency positions itself as a single partner that eliminates the need to coordinate separate agencies for these disciplines. Operatic emphasizes flexible team scaling, allowing clients to adjust workforce size without committing to the high fixed costs of full-time employees.

The agency maintains a team of fewer than 49 employees and charges an average hourly rate of $125, with a minimum project budget between $10,000 and $25,000. Operatic combines a US-based team with meticulously recruited offshore resources, particularly from Eastern Europe, to lower costs without sacrificing quality. The agency focuses on sensible architecture, managed technical debt, and practical processes rather than trendy methodologies.

Operatic's service offerings include software development, mobile app development, web design, and big data analytics. Areas of expertise span application platforms (Amazon, Google App Engine, Linux server), mobile app expertise (Android, iPhone, cross-platform, B2B/B2C apps), mobile app technology (HTML5, React Native), no-code development (Airtable), and software development (CRM, cloud applications, SaaS, consulting, maintenance, startup software). Web design expertise covers web apps, website redesign, and eCommerce.

The agency serves a range of industries including wellness and fitness, media and communications, gaming, health care, retail, sports, and supplements. Operatic primarily works with startups and small businesses. The leadership team includes founder Travis Hardman, a product manager and software developer with past clients such as Playboy, Vizio, and Nestle; principal Ted Yang, a former leader at Citigroup and Citadel; and design director Michael DeSutter, who brings over 20 years of experience with brands like Nike, Target, and Toyota.

Operatic's client portfolio includes Daily Voice, Ten Little, Cerebelly, Every Mother, GameDay One, and Pinpoint Golf. The agency has not accumulated any Google reviews on its DesignRush profile. Operatic positions itself as a practical, experienced partner for businesses seeking a comprehensive development team that can scale efficiently.
