About Just Smart Guys
We're a software development company that builds custom solutions for businesses that need software to work as hard as they do.
Our Story
Built on Better Software
Just Smart Guys was founded on a simple idea: businesses deserve software that actually fits the way they work. Too often, teams are forced to bend their processes around off-the-shelf tools — or worse, cobble together spreadsheets and workarounds because nothing on the market does what they need.
We build the alternative. Whether it's a desktop tool that replaces a clunky legacy system, a web platform that consolidates five different tools into one, a mobile app that puts real-time data in the hands of your field team, or automation software that connects your shop floor to your business systems — we build software that solves the specific problem in front of you.
Our team brings experience across industries including manufacturing, logistics, healthcare, and professional services. We're based in Michigan and work with clients locally and nationwide.
How We Work
Our Values
The principles that guide every project and every line of code.
Outcome-Focused
We measure success by the impact our software has on your business — not by lines of code or hours billed.
Transparent Partnership
No black boxes. You see our progress, understand our decisions, and have a direct line to the people doing the work.
Pragmatic Innovation
We use the right technology for the job, not the trendiest. If a simple solution solves the problem, that's what we build.
Long-Term Thinking
We write code that's maintainable, documented, and built to evolve — because software is never truly finished.
Our Process
How We Build
Discovery
We start by understanding your business, your users, and the problem you're trying to solve. No assumptions — just questions and listening.
Architecture & Planning
We design the technical foundation, define milestones, and align on scope so everyone knows what's being built and why.
Iterative Development
We build in short cycles with regular demos and feedback. You see working software early and often — not just at the end.
Testing & Deployment
Rigorous testing across environments, then a smooth rollout. We handle infrastructure, CI/CD, and go-live support.
Support & Evolution
Software doesn't end at launch. We provide ongoing maintenance, monitoring, and feature development as your needs grow.
