Architectures for Web Applications
You want your business to grow, and our team of developers can help. We call our clients Partners because we stay invested in your project's success long after launch.
Website or Web Application?
A website is something everyone understands, but a Web Application is much more. A web application captures a business process and implements it online.
- It allows your business to scale, potentially tapping a global market.
- Done well, a web app creates efficiencies that impact the bottom line.
- It also creates new opportunities to interact with customers in ways impossible in the physical world. Think “new possibilities”!
At Rietta, Inc. we do websites and web applications. But some of our most striking successes have been helping businesses develop web apps that have helped their bottom-line and increased revenue dramatically. A double win!

Already Have an Application? See Our Onboarding Process
If you’re maintaining a Rails application someone else built and need a partner for the long haul, see our full development process - including exactly how we bring an existing application under our care: due diligence, a security review, and a prioritized roadmap before we touch any code.
Security Audit Built In
All of our development projects receive a professional review of your Ruby on Rails application’s security. It’s a fundamental part of our development process.
Accessibility Testing Built In
Every web application we build gets tested against WCAG accessibility standards as a standard part of our QA process. For government clients whose applications we already maintain, that can extend into the website-side work ADA Title II compliance actually requires - providing alternate accessible content where a page can’t be brought fully into compliance directly, or implementing the specific page design and labeling the law’s archival exemption requires for older content. For engagements involving a full corpus of documents rather than a single application - scanning thousands of PDFs or forms for ADA Title II compliance, for example - that’s Metadata Minder, another part of our business built to do that work at scale.
Onsite Development
When your company needs onsite help, we are available for onsite development and consulting work for a base per-developer daily rate, plus all travel and per diem expenses. Availability for onsite work depends on developers’ schedules.
