Meet the teamThe team behind Appik Studio
Founded in Lausanne in 2021 by Gaspard Chevassus and Mathilde Igier, the studio brings together development, project coordination and design. The founders take part in scoping and building your products.
A computer science engineer, Mathilde coordinates delivery with clients and the team. She previously taught development at Le Wagon Lausanne and now teaches AI-assisted development at HEIG-VD. Her background in web and mobile development includes an interest in cybersecurity and cryptography.
A senior developer, William has worked on critical projects for Le Temps and Detectra. He develops web and mobile applications with React Native and full-stack architectures, on both the server and client.
A friend before a colleague, Patrick has collaborated independently with Appik since its beginnings through his studio Shapeless. A design graduate of HEAD, he teaches design at EPFL and HEIG-VD. He designs user journeys and interfaces in Figma, from wireframes to clickable prototypes.

What we build
- Mobile applicationsiOS and Android applications built with React Native and Expo. We support their design, development and release on the app stores.
- Web applicationsBusiness platforms and interfaces built with React and Next.js. They connect the people, data and tools your organization relies on.
- Artificial intelligenceAI features integrated into a product: assistants, document analysis or on-device models. The use case and data constraints guide the technical choices.
- UX/UI designUser journeys, interface designs and interactive prototypes. You can review how the product will work before development begins.
What shapes the way we work
Direct access to the people building your product
The developers you meet in the first conversations contribute to delivery. On Detectra, Mathilde, Gaspard and William took part in the initial discussions and the development of the mobile app, web dashboard and integrations.
Hands-on work in healthcare and research
Pneumoscope combines a mobile application, Bluetooth connectivity and on-device AI. Our contribution to Tune Insight covers the web interfaces of a sensitive-data platform: two examples of constraints we have worked with in actual projects.
Co-development with your own team
We rebuilt the Le Temps application alongside its internal team. Sharing code, decisions and knowledge prepares your team to continue after our engagement.

Frequently asked questions
Can you take over an existing application?
Yes. We first review the code, environments and risks, then propose a gradual takeover or stabilization work suited to the product.
What budget and timeline should we expect?
They depend on the use cases, existing software, integrations and production requirements. Scoping produces a proposed scope, budget and schedule; a limited first version and a complete rebuild require different commitments.
Can our team take over the code?
You receive the source code and documentation of technical decisions, with a handover to your team. Rights, access and any third-party licences are specified in the contractual agreement.
Do you offer hosting in Switzerland?
Yes, hosting in Switzerland can be included in the project. We define the architecture and services according to your data, security and operational requirements.
What happens after launch?
We can provide maintenance, continue development or arrange a handover to your team. Support scope and response arrangements are agreed according to the product’s needs.
