Snow Labs
Build · Prototype · Ship
An idea lab for concepts born in-house and select outside submissions. We prototype fast, build with feedback, and ship products we believe deserve to exist.

Where Ideas
Become Reality
Snow Labs is an idea lab dedicated to turning promising concepts into real products. Some start inside the company. Others come from outside submitters whose ideas we choose to build. In every case we brainstorm hard, prototype fast, gather feedback, and ship with intention. When we take on an external submission, the submitter stays involved in the feedback process, while Snow Labs retains final say on features, pricing, and long-term maintenance. Accepted submissions always include an agreed fair-market share of project revenue for the lifetime of the product.
> IDEA_INTAKE
Idea Intake
Great products can start on our whiteboard or arrive through an outside submission. We pressure-test raw concepts, sharpen the strongest ones, and decide which ideas are worth turning into real products.
> LAB_PORTFOLIO
Lab Portfolio
Kismet, StatBook, and MyPace reflect how Snow Labs operates: we build in-house, iterate quickly, and stay selective about what earns time, focus, and a permanent place in the lab.
> REV_SHARE
Revenue-Aligned Builds
When we accept an external idea, the original submitter stays close to the feedback loop while Snow Labs keeps final authority over features, pricing, and maintenance. Every accepted submission includes an agreed fair-market revenue share for the life of the project.

Built in the Lab
These are products Snow Labs chose to build in-house, whether the spark started internally or came from a submission we believed in. We prototype fast, get real feedback, iterate hard, and commit only to the ideas that earn a place in the lab.
> KISMET
Kismet Coffee Roasters
A complete e-commerce experience for specialty coffee
Custom-built headless e-commerce platform replacing a legacy Square Online store. Features real-time inventory, subscription management, secure card payments, and a mobile-first design that captures the warmth of the Kismet brand.
APPROACH
Rapid prototype of the storefront in under two weeks, iterated on checkout UX with real barista feedback, and shipped a production site that outperforms the original in every metric.
- Headless Square integration
- Subscription management
- Real-time inventory
- Mobile-first responsive
> STATBOOK
StatBook
Play-by-play stat tracking for multi-sport teams
Cross-platform stat tracker enabling coaches and statisticians to record, analyze, and export game statistics in real time. Built with a pluggable sport engine architecture supporting volleyball, baseball, and softball.
APPROACH
Started from a volleyball-only prototype, then designed a sport-agnostic plugin architecture. Each new sport plugs in without touching core logic — baseball was added in days, not weeks.
- Multi-sport plugin architecture
- Offline-first with sync
- Live game tracking
- PDF & CSV export
> MYPACE
MyPace
Health & wellness tracking designed for older adults
Cross-platform mobile app that makes nutrition, exercise, and walking program tracking simple and accessible. Built with a focus on usability — large text, clear navigation, and minimal cognitive load for older adult users.
APPROACH
Prototyped the core loop (log a meal, track a walk) in days, tested with real users in the target demographic, then iterated on font sizes, tap targets, and information density until the experience felt effortless.
- USDA food database integration
- 12-week walking program
- Accessibility-first design
- Offline-capable

From Concept to Code
Speed matters, but selection matters too. We prototype rapidly, iterate relentlessly, and ship with confidence only when an idea earns it. Every product in the lab follows this rhythm.
Ideate
brainstorm()
The best ideas can come from inside Snow Labs or from an outside submission. We stress-test the concept, explore the opportunity, and decide whether it fits the lab.
Prototype
build.fast()
Once we commit, we move fast. Working prototypes emerge within days, not months. We leverage the best tools available — including the latest AI tooling for agentic development — to compress iteration cycles and make the idea tangible quickly.
Iterate
refine(feedback)
Real users, real feedback, real improvements. If the product began as an external submission, the original submitter stays close to the loop while we refine what works and cut what doesn't.
Ship
deploy(prod)
We ship products built to last. Snow Labs keeps the final call on roadmap, pricing, and maintenance so the product stays coherent, and accepted outside submissions participate through a fair-market revenue share agreed for the life of the project.
