About Lickability

New York, USA

Lickability is the most expensive firm per hour in New York’s independent app landscape at $200 to $300, and the smallest at 2 to 9 people. Those two facts are the same fact: this is a senior iOS boutique with no junior bench to average the rate down.

Roughly 70% of its work is mobile app development, the highest concentration of any firm in the New York top ten. The model is embedding with in-house teams rather than taking whole builds off your hands — several reviews describe ongoing staff augmentation where Lickability engineers deliver technical work alongside the client’s own developers.

The verified record is strong and specific: 4.9 across 25 reviews, with all four New York City mobile reviews rated five-star, in the $200,000 to $999,999 project band. Local clients rate quality 5.0, willingness to refer 5.0, schedule 4.9 and cost 4.8. Reviewers repeatedly note accurate estimates and on-budget delivery, which is unusual praise in this category and worth more than the hourly rate suggests.

Best for: native iOS depth, and augmenting a team that already has a product in market.

Consider alternatives if: you need a full team covering Android, design and QA under one roof, or you are starting from zero.
