About Lakeview Labs

Lakeview Labs is a Chicago-based boutique mobile app studio founded in 2013 that intentionally caps its workload at seven projects per year to maintain quality. The firm builds iOS, Android, and React Native applications and has produced multiple #1-ranked apps in App Store categories including Shopping, Car Shopping, Education, and Tickets. At $100-149/hr with a $10K minimum, they hold a 5.0 Clutch rating with 9 reviews and a DesignRush listing.

Who Lakeview Labs Is Best For

Lakeview Labs is a strong choice for companies with a focused mobile app project that demands polish, performance, and App Store ranking potential. Their intentionally limited capacity means clients get senior attention on every project rather than being deprioritized on a large agency's roster. Early-stage teams with undefined scope or companies needing a full-service product team beyond mobile will find their focus limiting.

Why Choose Lakeview Labs

#1 App Store rankings across multiple categories
5.0 Clutch rating with 9 verified reviews

Things to Consider

7-project annual cap limits booking availability
