Pragmatic DLT
New York product studio building AI platforms, startup MVPs and websites for early-stage ventures
About
Pragmatic, formerly trading as Pragmatic DLT, is a technology and design studio based in New York. It builds software products and websites for venture-backed startups and similar organisations. Its team works across the United States, Ukraine and Ethiopia and joins client teams as an embedded partner rather than a distant vendor.
The studio offers three main services. Software development covers modular web, mobile and emerging-platform systems. Startup MVP work takes an idea through product design, build and validation. Web design produces responsive, brand-led sites, including headless Shopify builds with a Sanity content system. For some ventures it also works for equity.
Published case studies show a focus on AI products. Macky.ai generates structured business documents for small and mid-sized companies from a few targeted questions. AI Test Prep is a SAT and ACT practice platform with adaptive questions and AI explanations for students, parents and teachers. Wisebird is a local-first conversational assistant that helps families find suitable care services. Other client sectors include e-commerce and publishing, digital health and education technology. Earlier work under the Pragmatic DLT name covered blockchain and fintech projects.
