ITriage

ITriage Web App

ITriage created a hugely successful mobile app, now they needed a web presence...

ITriage created a health care app for symptom checking that achieved more than 15 million downloads. Now, the company wanted to expand its reach by providing the same offering on the web. This web app would need to provide a user experience comparable to mobile, while also serving content optimized for search engines.

Ronin was brought on to help architect and develop the web app, as well as to mentor ITriage engineers in development best practices. We established a comprehensive architecture, made important technical decisions, helped the developers gain the necessary web skills and wrote lots of code ourselves.

Aetna has since acquired ITriage, and, after a subsequent shift in strategy, the web app never made its live debut. However, Aetna took notice of our solid work and adopted many of the patterns and principals we put forth during our time on the project.
