Product and UX for technical software
For engineering and scientific tools that experts use every day: understanding the work, simplifying the workflows, and interface specs your developers can build from.
Akantha Labs S.A.S. · Medellín, Colombia
We build our own web products, and help technical teams build theirs.
A small studio in Medellín. We design, build and run our own sites, and we consult on product design for technical software and on reliable infrastructure for small companies.
01
Work with us
Every engagement starts with a short call and a written proposal. hola@akanthalabs.com
Reliable, secure infrastructure for small companies
Hosting, backups, email that reaches the inbox, certificates, monitoring and a plan for when something breaks, sized for a small team.
Technical advisory
A second opinion before you build, buy or hire: architecture and security reviews, vendor choices, and a written plan.
Online stores, in partnership
For makers whose product we believe in: we design, build and run your online store, and you sell, ship and invoice from your own account. It's a partnership, not a service we sell to anyone.

Our brands
Everything here is ours: we build it, run it and pay for it.
