Delivered on time and stayed involved after launch

Daniel Al Nuaimi / Program Manager | Sep 27, 2026

I would rate this engagement highly on almost every front. The team asked a lot of questions early on, which felt slow at first but meant there were very few surprises later. The developers were knowledgeable and made a few suggestions that ended up saving us time and money.

We are already seeing better numbers than before the project.

We are already discussing the next phase with them.

Project summary

We hired Blackstone Studio to build firmware and a companion app for a smart device we were launching. The project was split into milestones, with a working build shared at the end of each one. The project took roughly 6 months from kickoff to launch.

Reliable AI & Machine Learning Partner That Delivered What They Promised

Stephanie Ramirez / Managing Director | Sep 14, 2026

We were very happy with how this project went. They took the time to understand our business before suggesting anything, which we appreciated after previous agencies jumped straight into building. Even with the time zone difference, responses usually came the same day and we never felt left in the dark. Their project manager kept things organised and was quick to flag anything that might affect the timeline.

The AI & Machine Learning work has already made a noticeable difference — tasks that used to take hours now take minutes. We are already discussing the next phase with them.

Project summary

Blackstone Studio was brought in to build a demand forecasting model on top of our sales data. The work covered requirements, design, development, testing and launch support. We worked together for around 9 months.

They listened, asked the right questions, and delivered

Chloe Wilson / Founder | Jun 12, 2026

Blackstone Studio did an excellent job for us. Communication was consistent. We had a weekly call, a shared Slack channel and a project board we could check at any time. They shared working builds regularly, so we could test early and give feedback before things were locked in. They were upfront about what was realistic within our budget, which helped us prioritise the right features.

We are already seeing better numbers than before the project.

Overall, a team we trust and plan to keep working with.

Honest advice and solid execution

Sneha Reddy / Director of IT | May 21, 2026

Honestly, this was one of the smoothest projects we have run with an outside team. Communication was consistent. We had a weekly call, a shared Slack channel and a project board we could check at any time. Their project manager kept things organised and was quick to flag anything that might affect the timeline. The developers were knowledgeable and made a few suggestions that ended up saving us time and money.

Feedback from our customers has been very positive so far. Happy to recommend them.
