Overview
Code Heroes is a Brisbane-based digital product company specialising in mobile-first, full-stack software for organisations that need secure, reliable and user-centred digital services - built with accessibility and inclusive design from day one, without sacrificing beautiful, interactive experiences. We provide product planning, UX/UI design, mobile and web development, backend/API development, cloud infrastructure, integration with third-party systems, testing, audit, delivery and release management, and ongoing support and maintenance.
We deliver mobile-first, accessibility-first digital services that meet government accessibility expectations and reduce operational load during peak demand. Mobile-first is our user-experience philosophy, not a limitation on scope: for any package we deliver mobile-first user experiences, responsive web portals and admin consoles, backend/API services, integrations, dashboards and reporting, testing and production support. For software/GMS packages we act as a full-stack software module partner; for hardware-, licensing- or regulated-services-heavy packages we act as the digital layer partner supporting the relevant prime contractor. We are comfortable working as an embedded partner to enterprise, government and specialist delivery teams.
Our team is particularly suited to Brisbane 2032 work packages where success depends on clear mobile and web workflows, secure role-based access, accessibility, backend/API integration, dashboards, stakeholder experiences, high-volume user adoption and production support. We favour a risk-controlled delivery model - discovery, prototype, user testing, integration design, accessibility and security review, iterative delivery, pilot, operational rehearsal, Games-time support and legacy handover - designed to help Brisbane 2032 avoid overbuilding, reduce adoption risk and prove high-risk workflows early.
Our accessibility credentials are procurement evidence, not a trophy: the Queensland Digital Licence app, developed by Code Heroes with Thales and the Queensland Government, won Government App of the Year and overall App of the Year at the 2025 Australian Access Awards. This proves an accessibility-led delivery method that lowers inclusion risk, reduces complaints, strengthens usability at crowd scale and gives government buyers clearer assurance. Where relevant we provide tangible artefacts: an accessibility conformance statement and WCAG mapping, assistive-technology test notes, a screen reader/contrast/captions/cognitive-load test plan, an inclusive user-research approach, and a Games-mode readiness checklist covering load testing, monitoring, incident playbooks, offline or degraded-mode behaviour, app store release governance and support SLAs.
Relevant project evidence includes: the Queensland Digital Licence (secure government mobile identity, QR/digital verification, accessibility-led UX, state-wide public adoption); the QUT Student App (campus services, shuttle bus, parking, events and wayfinding for users on the go - directly relevant to accommodation and venue-services apps); Sandvik Timesheets (mobile, web and desktop workforce solution at scale); the ISG Investor App (secure serverless backend, MFA, confidential documents, role-based access and notifications); the Youi Insurance App (Flutter production rebuild, claims, roadside assistance and enterprise team upskilling); Sales Buddi (AI sales coaching with scheduling and content delivery); Rad Buddy (health AI web app using RAG over web and PDF content); and Dala (wellbeing AI mobile app with journaling and personalised AI). Across these we deliver substantial backend, API and integration work, connecting our products to enterprise and third-party systems.
