SuperPhone is an intelligent mobile messaging platform - think Salesforce for texting. Enterprise retail brands use it to acquire, retain, and engage mobile customers through personalized SMS, segmentation, and smart auto-responses. Founded by Ryan Leslie - Harvard graduate at 19, Grammy-nominated artist and multi-platinum producer who taught himself to code.
We've been SuperPhone's technology partner since 2017. That's nine years of continuous development across every layer of the platform.

The team that scales with you
We scaled up for heavy build phases and scaled down as the product stabilized - today a lean steady-state team maintaining and selectively building on a mature platform.
That flex is the point. No lock-in to an oversized retainer. The team matched what the product actually needed at each stage.
From monolith to microservices to agentic delivery
The platform started as a monolith. We migrated it to a microservice architecture on Scala with Akka, backed by Postgres, Kafka, Redis, and AWS Keyspaces, running on AWS ECS.
In 2026, the engagement transitioned to agentic development. The same team, the same codebase, now building with AI agents handling the predictable work - tests, boilerplate, code review - while engineers focus on architecture and product decisions.
SuperPhone is both our longest-running partnership and a live agentic delivery engagement. It proves the model works across the full lifecycle: greenfield build, scaling, stabilization, and evolution.
“LambdaWorks was able to fulfill our requirements in the budget given to them.”

Nine years with one client isn't an accident. It means the code quality held up, the team stayed consistent, and the partnership delivered value at every stage.
