App Development · Nashville Most good software lives behind a login.
Social Link is an app development company in Nashville. We build web apps, member portals and mobile apps for businesses: the data, the logins, the screens and the launch.
Members only. The public site has one door: the Retail Portal button. Everything behind it is software.

How an app gets built.
Small enough steps that nothing surprises you, from the first scope to the day it ships.
- 01
Scope
Who signs in, what each of them needs to do, and what it connects to.
- 02
Design
Flows and screens, clickable before any code. See App Design.
- 03
Build
In stages you can click through, so you see it working early.
- 04
Launch
Then support, updates and the next round of improvements.
Do you build mobile apps or web apps?
Both. We recommend one based on who uses it and where: a web app or portal for most business tools, a mobile app when the job happens on a phone.
Can you build a portal for our customers or vendors?
Yes. Portals are most of what businesses need: each person signs in and sees the right information for their company and role.
Can the app connect to our existing systems?
Yes. We connect apps to CRMs, payment systems and the tools you already use, so nobody types the same thing twice.
How long does an app take?
It depends on how many people use it and what it connects to. We build in stages, so you see working parts early.
How much does app development cost?
It depends on the scope. We scope it with you before any work starts.
