Scale on Android
In a market still dependent on paper invoices and mailed checks, the company's mission was to simplify payments through technology.
Luby partnered with the company to bring this vision to life — building a robust Android app powered by AI and computer vision that automated invoice reading and payments, helping the fintech secure major funding from top-tier VCs.
While the client had successfully launched its iOS app, its growth was limited — half of U.S. users were on Android, leaving a massive share of the market untapped.
The challenge: build a fully native Android app from scratch, replicating the functionality of the existing iOS version while improving technical scalability, performance, and automation.
The client turned to Luby as a consultative and technical partner to lead the development and expand its reach across the U.S. fintech market.
Reach Android users at parity with iOS quality
Ship AI + computer vision for invoice capture at scale
Improve performance and maintainability (Java → Kotlin)
Integrate payments (e.g. Plaid) securely and quickly
Native Android, AI, and agile delivery
A dedicated fintech squad built the Android app with AI and computer vision to read invoices and execute payments — starting in Java, then rebuilding in Kotlin for performance and stability.
Squad composition
Luby worked with the client's product team using Scrum — participating in planning and iterations to:
Continuous evolution
As the client matured, it internalized much of product development but continued to rely on Luby for specialized engineering — maintenance, test automation, releases, and integrations with financial providers. This model gave the client agility, technical confidence, and consistent quality through growth.
Key integration — Plaid
Luby's integration specialists connected the client's app with Plaid so users could link bank accounts for real-time payments and transfers — deployed rapidly and securely.
