Is Larkin Right for Your Project?
We work best with organizations in specific situations.
Production Volume Sweet Spot
Larkin is particularly well-suited for products targeting annual production volumes from 100 to 100K units. This scale benefits from our expertise in balancing custom design with cost-effective manufacturing approaches.
Building or Scaling Technical Teams
Many of our clients are organizations that lack the full in-house team needed for end-to-end IoT development. This might be startups trying to figure out their product-market fit without a large technical team, or public companies needing to build or modernize technology capabilities. We fill the gaps—whether that's hardware expertise, firmware development, cloud integration, or production readiness support.
Modernization & Efficiency Needs
If you have an existing product that needs to be updated with modern connectivity, reduced cost, or improved performance to stay competitive, we can help. We've modernized legacy products with newer technology, optimized designs for cost reduction, and improved reliability for field deployment.
Fast Time-to-Market Priority
Companies that need to move quickly benefit from our streamlined approach. We focus on what's essential to get your product to market without unnecessary complexity, while maintaining quality and reliability standards.
If your situation fits this profile, we'd be glad to discuss how we can help. If not, we're still happy to talk and point you toward resources that might be a better fit.
