We build apps for small businesses, startups, and teams inside large companies
But we don’t just “deliver apps”. We work with a product mindset. We understand the problem you’re trying to solve and build solutions for those problems. And we do it fast because we use no-code.
How we work
From understanding to delivery focused on what actually matters: solving your business problem.
Discovery
We identify the business opportunities and problems that need to be solved.
Technology & features
We map the key features and choose the most suitable no-code technology.
Build & Test
We build fast, validate, and refine.
Delivery & evolution
We publish, scale, and continuously improve the solution.
Why no-code?
Democratized access
Any team can build apps and automations, even without advanced programming skills.
Your team can continue evolving a Dab Lab–built app.
Continuous iteration
Changes and improvements are made quickly, without technical bottlenecks.
Speed
We develop up to 90% faster than traditional methods so you reach the market ahead of competitors.
Business focus
More energy on user experience and the outcome, less on infrastructure.
Lower cost
Less time and fewer technical resources mean smaller investments to launch your product.
Fast idea validation
Perfect for MVPs and feasibility tests. Validate hypotheses before making large investments.
Lower technical dependency
Improvements can be done without long development cycles, giving the business more autonomy.

How we calculate price
At Dab Lab, we created a proprietary system that estimates the price of an app based on its technical complexity.
Each type of feature is assigned a number of points.
For example: if your solution requires 1 simple automation, that equals 3 points. If there were 2 automations, that would be 6 points, and so on.
At the end, the total number of points is multiplied by a monetary factor and adjusted by other factors such as company size, urgency, perceived technical complexity, and more.

Dab Lab Manifesto
At Dab Lab, we believe technology is a tool to solve real problems at fair prices.
We’re not attached to any single technology, and we’re always open to testing and experimenting with new ones.
We work as a collective. We operate with a product mindset.
We organize ourselves in product teams — with no hierarchy or seniority levels.
Everyone working on a product shares equally in its success and takes joint responsibility for results, operations, and improvements.
Our commitment is simple: deliver fast and deliver value.
In our business model, there is no “founder profit”. After covering obligations and expenses, all revenue is shared equally among the members of each product team.
Join the Dab Lab network
A typical product team assembled for a client project consists of:
Product Manager + Product Designer + No-Code Engineer
(One person may cover more than one role depending on the solution.)
For engineers, proficiency in one or more of the technologies we use is important.
Being hands-on matters more than certifications.
What we value is that you’ve built real solutions — either real apps that solved real problems or portfolio projects created to learn and practice.
About Dab Lab
Dab Lab was created from the experience of Alexandre Siqueira, a technology professional with more than 30 years working at Salesforce, Globo, Nissan, Nokia, and others.
After returning from SXSW 2025, he recognized the impact of no-code and low-code platforms in modern software development. Alexandre rediscovered his developer roots, learned the tools hands-on, and started building real apps published on the App Store.
Dab Lab was born as a digital solutions agency specializing in no-code, automation, and AI — creating MVPs, internal and external apps for companies of all sizes: from startups to small businesses to departments inside large enterprises, always delivering fast and delivering value.
He also implemented a work model he always believed to be the fairest: solutions that create real value, at a fair price, with no founder profit, and equal revenue sharing among everyone involved — with no hierarchy or title-based distinctions.
