About Us

What is a Creative Technology Agency?

Creative. And Technology. Under one roof.

That’s the promise of the creative technology agency. Because too often those with a creative bend get too far ahead of the curve. Brilliant ideas shoot too far ahead of their time without the grounding of understanding the limits of current and near future technology. And today’s technologists are so often guilty of overlooking the everyman, the ordinary consumer, the human being who just wants stuff to work without having to read a manual.

So we look to those striving to bridge these domains for inspiration. Some of the world’s most successful businesses are those that have successfully blended these two very different domains. Braun. Audi. Sony. Apple.
At Steely Eye, designers and developers, creatives and engineers work side by side because no one person can be an expert in both.

When we founded Steely Eye, we wanted to offer a better, more joined up experience for our customers than the many agencies in this space that create a beautiful design and a radical concept, that turns out to be impossible to implement with the technological, time or budgetary constraints in place.
By having both a design team and a development team in one organisation, we can ensure that we never propose something that cannot be built to look or operate the way it was designed to. And that we will never deliver something that does not look like what we have designed.

To do that, we always vet designs for technical feasibility before showing them to customers, and that we always test that the finished product matches the original design – involving our designers in the testing process, catching misaligned pixels and incorrect fonts that are easy to miss for those without a designer’s eye.
Steely Eye now leads the way in mobile design and technology. We work with big name clients and brands, we’re a firm favourite amongst digital and ad agencies looking to translate a wider communication plan into mobile, and we also partner with some far smaller companies looking to take their first steps.

Most importantly, Steely Eye is dedicated to the big picture. Mobile has an essential role for most businesses, but we will always guide our clients to what’s right for them – not what’s trendy, or over-elaborate, or makes us look cool.
For us, the project going live is just the first step in a relationship. The market is changing every day, and we want to help our clients stay at the forefront of the industry, reaching their customers in interesting and relevant ways. There’s a smorgasbord of possibilities out there, from Augmented Reality, voice recognition, GPS, and apps so cool they generate reams of free publicity …
