Web, mobile, design, AI and consulting — Almaty, Kazakhstan

Web, mobile, design and AI under one studio

BBI Digital Studio builds websites, mobile apps, and the systems behind them for companies in Almaty and across Kazakhstan. Bring us a product that has to exist soon, or a site and app that no longer match how your business runs — the same team that designs the interface also wires it into your CRM and your cloud.

What the studio actually does

Five service lines, one delivery

Most real projects cross at least two disciplines. An e-commerce build needs design decisions and backend architecture decided together, not handed between vendors. A mobile app needs the same account data as the web product. We plan the work as one delivery, not a stack of separate contracts.

Web development in Kazakhstan

A website in 2026 is rarely just pages

What it connects to

It connects to a payment or invoice flow, a CRM, a stock system, or an internal admin panel your team updates daily. We build with that in mind from the first wireframe: which data moves where, who edits what, and what happens when traffic doubles after a campaign. If your project is a marketplace or a SaaS product, the same team handles the backend, the API layer, and the front end.

Mobile apps, cross-platform and PWA

Not every product needs a native app on two stores. When the job is content, ordering, booking, or a customer account, a progressive web app or a cross-platform build often reaches users faster and stays cheaper to maintain. When the job needs device features, offline work, or a store presence, we go native. The decision is made from your users' behavior and your support capacity, not from a default.

What a strong portfolio looks like

Look past screenshots

A useful case study shows the problem, the constraint, and the decision that followed. If a team built a marketplace, ask how they handled payouts and seller onboarding. If they built an app, ask how they tested on low-end Android devices common in the region. That tells you more than a wall of logos.

Marketplace build — payouts and seller onboarding

Ask a marketplace team

How payouts are split, when a seller is verified, and what happens to an order when a listing is pulled mid-checkout.

Ask an app team

How the build behaves on the low-end Android devices common in Kazakhstan, and who fixes a crash on a phone the studio does not own.

Design that survives contact with real content

Screens built for the people who will use them

UX/UI design at BBI starts with the actual content your team will publish, in the languages you operate in. Screens are built for a business user in Almaty checking an order on a phone, and for a procurement manager comparing suppliers on a laptop. We deliver interface systems your developers can extend, not one-off mockups that break on the first new section.

Where AI fits, and where it doesn't

Useful, not glamorous

AI solutions in our work are usually unglamorous and useful: document processing, support-ticket triage, search across a product catalog, or drafting tools inside an admin panel.

Tested against a real workflow

We test whether a model improves a real workflow before recommending it. If a rule-based script does the job more cheaply and predictably, we say so and write that instead.

Consulting and system integration

Consulting here means mapping how your business actually operates, then deciding what software should change. That often touches CRM and system integration, because a new website is worthless if sales still re-enter every lead by hand.

How engagements usually start

A scope with phases, not a vague estimate

Most projects begin with a short discovery: goals, constraints, existing systems, and a rough budget range. From there you get a scope with phases, not a vague estimate. Small marketing sites can move in weeks. Custom software and app builds are planned in stages so you can see progress before the full spend.

Our clients are SMEs and mid-size companies in Kazakhstan and the wider region, plus teams that need a technical partner they can reach in the same time zone. We handle projects in English and Russian. If you already have an in-house team, we can plug into it rather than replace it.

First

Send what you need, what exists today, and when it has to be live.

Then

We reply with clarifying questions and an honest read on whether we're the right fit.

After that

A phased scope you can review before the full spend is committed.

Choosing between a studio, an agency, and a software firm

The market here mixes web studios, app developers, and full-cycle software companies, and the labels overlap. What separates them in practice is what happens after launch.

Three questions worth asking any vendor

  • Who maintains the code after launch, and on what terms?
  • Who owns the infrastructure and the accounts the product runs on?
  • How are changes priced once the first version is live?

If the answer is unclear, the project will stall the first time something needs updating. Our base of operations is in Kazakhstan, with project communication built around your working hours. Remote delivery is normal for us, and so is a mixed model where we design and architect while your team builds.

Getting a first answer

Questions we hear before the first call

Start a project brief
Do you work with companies outside Almaty?

Yes. We deliver remotely across Kazakhstan and the wider region, and project communication is scheduled around your working hours.

Can you take over a project another team started?

Often, yes. We review the existing code and infrastructure first, then tell you honestly whether continuing or rebuilding is the better path.

Do you offer staff augmentation?

We can add engineers to your existing team when you need capacity without a full fixed-scope project.

How do you decide between a native app and a PWA?

From your users' needs and your support capacity. Store presence and device features point to native; content, ordering, and account flows often work well as a PWA.

What do you need to give an estimate?

A short description of the goal, the systems involved, and your target launch window. We follow up with questions before quoting.
