Able

Able (operating at able.co) is a technology development platform engineered for entrepreneurs, startups, and philanthropic organizations seeking to accelerate innovation without the overhead of traditional software teams. Founded in 2013 and headquartered in New York City, Able disrupts the fragmented model of outsourcing software development by combining human expertise with AI-driven workflows. Under the hood, the platform leverages a hybrid approach—pairing specialized strategists, designers, engineers, and project managers with proprietary AI tools—to streamline collaboration, reduce development cycles, and enhance output quality. This allows clients to scale projects efficiently while maintaining cost-effectiveness, eliminating the need for in-house hiring or piecemeal vendor management. Backed by a total of $10.5 million in funding across two rounds, including a Series B, Able positions itself as a strategic partner for organizations prioritizing agility and innovation in their tech initiatives.
