Project Summary

An investment-advisor firm (Insight Investments) hired Imagine Apps to build a mobile app (iOS and Android) that enables users to invest in managed portfolios with selectable risk levels and a single-touch brokerage product. The app launched live in July 2020 and has been active since; the client praises Imagine Apps' skilled, responsive team while noting that time estimations could be improved.

Key Challenges

  • Lack of an in-house development team
  • Need to develop a mobile app to deliver the company's investment services

Project Deliverables

  • Mobile iOS and Android app
  • API integrations/connectors
  • Backend architecture and integration work

Project Solution

Imagine Apps developed the client's mobile application for iOS and Android to enable users to invest in managed portfolios with selectable risk levels and to provide a single-touch brokerage product. The vendor implemented portfolio- and stock-return displays and began integrating external APIs; they also advised on the backend architecture required to support those integrations and planned features such as bank transfer. The engagement included a small cross-functional team (CEO, designer, product owner, two developers and another member) and collaboration using tools like Jira, Slack and spreadsheets.

Project Outcome

  • The app went live in July 2020
  • The app has been live for over six months (per feedback summary)
  • Regular weekly, monthly and quarterly meetings and KPI tracking were established
  • The vendor was described as skilled, responsive, and hardworking by the client
  • Time estimations by the vendor were identified as an area for improvement
