If you searched for a software developer in Richmond, Indiana or an app developer near Richmond, IN, you probably want someone local enough to meet in person and experienced enough to ship production software, not just a prototype. Batteries Included builds mobile apps, web applications, and backend systems for businesses and founders in Wayne County, across East Central Indiana, and nationwide.

Local partnership, production delivery

We are headquartered in Richmond, Indiana. Day-to-day engineering runs remotely with clear async updates, so you are not managing a distributed vendor on your own.

We also partner fully remotely with teams anywhere in the United States.

Software development services near Richmond, IN

  • Web development: marketing sites, product web apps, and internal tools for local shops, practices, and growing businesses. Fixed-scope entry packages when you need a credible site without a long open-ended contract.
  • Mobile app development: native iOS and Android apps built for App Store and Google Play review: new builds, feature work, and rescue when an existing app is stuck before launch.
  • Secure APIs & Backend: typed Node.js services, contact forms, payments, and integrations — with secret keys and credentials kept on the server where they belong.
  • Discovery roadmap: when scope is unclear or stakeholders need alignment before committing to a build budget.

What should I bring to a first conversation?
