Hello! I'm Dan Akers - founder of Startling.I’m a Business Analyst with over 20 years experience across multiple roles and industries. I’ve supported dozens of apps, websites and other projects, all the way from the initial idea stage through to development and launch. But Startling is not a development-led agency. Our focus isn’t on a specific technology or keeping a room full of developers busy… it’s 100% you and your ideas. We want to help you define and refine them, so you can launch with the best chance of success. Our unique approach allows us to be completely honest and truly impartial - our only driver is you and the success of your project.We’ll work as closely with you as you like, to rapidly create or focus your brand, use it to produce interactive screen designs, and design a road-map of features to let you roll out your ideas in the quickest, lightest and most cost-effective way.If your project requires bespoke development, we'll gather you fixed cost quotes from some of the regions best developers and create direct relationships with your future development partner.If you're looking for an off-the-shelf solution, we'll search the markets for the best fit for you, score systems against your requirements, and handle all the interactions with potential suppliers.We'll help support your project through development to rollout or launch and for as long as you need us.
