Established in 2015 by software development veterans who were tired of seeing projects fail and expectations unmet, Tech9's founders realized there was an opportunity to build technology the right way. Because businesses deserve better.

With US-based executive leaders and project managers, senior-level design, engineering and development talent, Tech9 takes the time to thoroughly understand clients' needs, ensuring the right software solutions are delivered and expectations are exceeded. Every project, every person, every piece of code and technology, is built upon a unique culture that values integrity, transparency and accountability.

What makes your company special?

After years working in the tech industry, founders Nick Stice and Bill Rappleye discovered a missing level of happiness. They were shocked by the huge amount of unused software and disappointed by clunky, inadequate software. They were aware of too many companies that were frustrated communicating with a team that only spoke “tech.”

This is why Nick and Bill set out to create a software development company that builds the right solution, the right way—software that gets used. A place where customers' needs are heard, employee satisfaction is 97% (compared to 67% industry average), clients receive senior-level developer talent (9 years average experience vs. 3 years industry average), and pricing is competitive. Tech9 designers utilize the latest technology advancements to build software in a clickable format before it’s developed. This reduces client costs by 30%, allowing companies to see exactly what will be created before it is developed.

Tech9 works tirelessly to create “Cloud-9” level happiness. With a firm belief that tech-ing should be a happy experience, Tech9 collaborates with clients to deliver software that solves problems, increases user engagement and improves the customer experience.

Testimonials

"TIA has provided many benefits for our company. One of the most important benefits to us is the educational opportunities TIA provides. As a small company, we are limited in the amount of training we can provide our employees. To supplement our training, we've taken full advantage of the courses offered by TIA, most notably the CTB program. This has allowed us to develop more well-rounded and productive employees."
