Custom Software Development in Minneapolis and St. Paul
A senior US team headquartered in the Twin Cities, building custom software, web applications, mobile apps, and portals for businesses here and across the country.
It designs and builds software a business actually runs on: internal tools, customer and employee portals, web applications, mobile apps, and the integrations between them. Eclipse Dev Studios is a senior team based in the Minneapolis and Saint Paul area, working with Twin Cities businesses and clients across the United States.
What We Build for Twin Cities Businesses
What a Local Team Actually Gets You
Being in the Twin Cities is not a pitch by itself, so here is the honest version of what it changes. You get a kickoff you can do in person if you want one. You get answers inside your own working day instead of overnight, because nobody is handing your project across twelve time zones. And you get a shop with a real address in the metro rather than a reseller fronting an offshore team you never meet.
What it does not change is the work. Software is built remotely regardless of who writes it, and we build for clients across the United States on the same terms. So treat local as a convenience: useful for the conversations, irrelevant to the code. Either way you get a fixed price before anything starts, senior developers rather than juniors learning on your project, and the full source code at the end. More on how we work: why teams choose Eclipse.
Work We Have Shipped
ALL CASE STUDIES →Real systems, not demos
A browser-based 3D product configurator that generates architect-ready submittal drawings and posts specs to a manufacturer's ERP, built for Sabin. A full crew operations portal covering scheduling, attendance, safety reporting, training, and per-crew production math for Field Outdoor Spaces. A national competition platform for LifeSmarts. Different industries, same approach: scope it honestly, then build it.
Questions We Get Asked
Can we meet in person in the Twin Cities?
Yes. Eclipse is based in the Minneapolis and Saint Paul area, so an in-person kickoff or working session around the metro is straightforward. Most of the build itself runs remotely because that is how software gets written, but you are working with people in your own time zone, not an overseas handoff.
Do you only work with Minnesota companies?
No. We are headquartered in the Minneapolis and Saint Paul area and we build for clients across the United States. Being local is a convenience, not a requirement. The process, the fixed price, and the code you end up owning are the same wherever you are.
How much does custom software development cost in Minneapolis?
It depends on scope, so we do not quote a number before we understand the build. Projects start around $5,000, and after a free scoping call you get a fixed price rather than an open hourly meter. Rates are US rates because the team is US based.
What kinds of software do you build?
Custom business software, web applications, iOS and Android apps, customer and employee portals, dashboards, and integrations between the systems you already run. If it is an internal tool or a product your customers log into, it is in scope.
Who owns the source code?
You do. At the end of the project you own the full source code outright, with no per-seat fees and no license to keep renewing. You can host it, extend it, or hand it to another team whenever you want.
