Deliverables
Our Work
At Mapify, our team initially focused on an outstanding content creation experience to attract content from talented photographers worldwide. The web and mobile products we developed quickly rose in recognition and were scaled into countries all over the world. While a strong backend infrastructure was needed behind the scenes, the team's focus on a beautiful user interface resulted in Apple recognizing Mapify with numerous awards in the global App Store. To date, Mapify is among the largest consumer products our team has worked on before Sonic was officially founded.
