We don't just build software — we create award-winning software solutions, fast. 25 top industry awards, 5 Product of the Year awards, and multiple patents behind us. Fixed sprints, a blended team of senior and junior engineers plus dedicated QA, and real ownership from day one.
Talk to a real engineer on your first call — usually within a business day.
We don't sell 40 services. We do three, at a level most agencies can't match.
Marketing sites, product landing pages, dashboards, and SaaS front-ends. Built on modern stacks (Next.js, Tailwind, Supabase, Vercel). Instrumented for conversion from day one.
Chat, voice, and agentic AI trained on your business. Receptionists, sales copilots, CRM copilots, RAG assistants — wired into the tools you already use.
Internal tools, workflow apps, integrations, and platforms. Built like production software — typed, tested, monitored, and handed over with docs your team can actually read.
Hire SMS is the studio arm of Sound Management Services LLC, founded in 1998. The same team, portfolio, and standards behind our own products — now working on yours.
Notable innovation: SANDi, one of the world's first voice-activated auto-attendant & natural dialogue systems (US Patent 7,177,402 B2). We've been building intelligent software long before AI was a buzzword.
We size the work in weeks, quote it up front, and ship on a real calendar — the same rhythm we run our own products on.
An engineer — not a salesperson — walks the problem with you and returns a written brief within 48 hours.
Fixed price. Fixed timeline. A dedicated team lead. You see progress daily in a shared workspace.
We ship to production on day 30, then move into weekly iteration or hand off cleanly. Your call.
Your repo. Your accounts. Your data. We leave the codebase in a state your team can pick up cold.
A selection of the surfaces we've delivered for founders and operators over the last 24 months.
Award-quality landing, product, and pricing sites that convert paid and organic traffic without a rebuild in six months.
Inbound phone + SMS agents that route, qualify, book, and hand off — trained on your operations, not a template.
Internal apps replacing spreadsheets and manual work. Auth, permissions, audit, and reporting — treated as first-class.
Chat and copilots trained on your documents, tickets, and SOPs — with source citations your team can trust.
Stripe, Twilio, Supabase, HubSpot, Salesforce — wired together with idempotency, retries, and observability built in.
Design-system-led product interfaces for teams graduating from admin panels to a real product surface.
Hire SMS is the client-facing studio arm of Sound Management Services LLC, founded by Michael Metcalf in 1998 and the operator behind the Zapsoft product family. Our blended team of senior engineers, developers, and dedicated QA — spanning the US and our trusted offshore partners — brings the same discipline to your project that we bring to our own products.
You get direct access to an engineer from the first call. Decisions happen in your Slack, not in a monthly status meeting.
Hire SMS regularly co-invests in software projects when the entrepreneur and vision are a strong fit with our team. For the right partnership we'll fund up to 50% of the build cost — aligning our incentives with yours from day one.
We're selective on purpose. A limited number of co-investment engagements each year means every project gets our senior team's attention and long-term commitment, not a hand-off.
One sentence about what you need. We'll reply from an engineer, not a template.
