Despia

Despia is an independent software company founded circa 2023 with a focus on simplifying the creation and deployment of native mobile applications from web technologies. The company developed its flagship product, Despia Native, a platform that enables developers, agencies, and startups to compile web apps built with frameworks such as React, Vue, Angular, or static HTML/JS stacks into native mobile binaries without requiring expertise in traditional native development languages for iOS or Android.

Operating with a lean, remote-first approach and a small team of 1 to 10 employees, Despia has established a business model that relies primarily on one-time licensing fees for its platforms, rather than recurring subscriptions. It offers lifetime access licenses for individual mobile platforms and custom enterprise or API plans available by quote. The company serves primarily indie developers, small teams, solo founders, no-code/low-code builders, and agencies prototyping for clients, focusing on democratizing access to native mobile app deployment by providing a no-code or low-code interface to unlock device-level features.

As of 2025, Despia remains bootstrapped with no public funding or external investors and does not maintain a physical headquarters, instead operating virtually with customer and support communications handled via direct email. Social media presence is minimal or unavailable, reflecting the company’s early-stage and indie hacker profile. Despia maintains transparency in its product, emphasizing human-readable generated code and active user community feedback to guide its product roadmap.
