About Us
We’re a team of designers, developers and project managers who are committed to developing successful software solutions. Our strategies for getting your product to market are the end result of our independent research and testing; it’s no exaggeration to say we have literally written the book on successful development. You can read it for free here.
Although no two projects are the same, we always take a scientific approach to development. This is with our goal in mind, product success. Building software that succeeds and helps our clients reach their goals is what drives us.

Our story
The origins of WorkingMouse begin with our founder, Dr. Eban Escott (PhD) and the development of award-winning Codebots technology. This is a technology that we use every day to streamline development and free our team to focus on building the creative components of every solution. WorkingMouse belongs to the ECI company group, alongside Codebots. This unique structure allows us to focus on what we do best, build high quality software.
In 2019, CTO and company legend Matt Francis was promoted to CEO of WorkingMouse. Our team continues to push for innovation, transparent processes and product success.

Our values are at the heart of everything we do.
