OBI — a St. Louis software studioOBIStart a project ↗

A software development company in St. Louis

We build for the businesses that run this region: contractors and millwork shops, restaurants and caterers, property groups, labs, and the enterprise back offices nobody sees. Same city, same time zone, same accountability if something breaks on a Saturday.

Where we work

OBI is a service-area studio — there is no walk-in office, because the useful meeting happens at your counter, your job site or your back office. We cover the metro on both sides of the river.

Who we build for here

Contractors, millwork and the trades
Estimating that produces a signed proposal, not a spreadsheet nobody trusts.
Restaurants and caterers
Ordering that respects the kitchen's actual sequence, and catering quotes that route themselves.
Property and portfolio groups
Units, vendors, draws and documents on one timeline instead of a decade of spreadsheets.
Enterprise back offices
Intake, triage and onboarding delivered inside NDA and enterprise security review.
Why local matters here

Close enough to watch the process that is costing you money

We come to the site

Scoping happens where the work happens. Watching one real quote get built finds the expensive step faster than any questionnaire.

One time zone, one number

No handoff to an offshore team overnight. The people who wrote it are the people who answer when it misbehaves.

We know the paperwork

Missouri contractor change orders, Illinois-side deliveries, bilingual crews — the details that make a generic product fit badly.

Local questions

Where in St. Louis are you based?

We operate from St. Louis as a service-area studio — no walk-in office. We meet at your site, your office or on a call, and deliver across St. Louis City and County, St. Charles, Jefferson County and the Metro East.

Do you only work with St. Louis companies?

No. St. Louis is home and most clients are here, but we have delivered for a technology company in Mexico and for enterprise subsidiaries operating nationally.

Can you meet in person?

Yes, and for a scoping session we prefer it. Watching the actual process on the actual desk finds the expensive step faster than any questionnaire.

Built in St. Louis, for people who have to run it Monday.
