Light Animation builds custom software, web platforms and 2D/3D and medical animation for organisations in Boston and Cambridge. Our engineering team works from India, and our US office in Hillside, New Jersey, keeps us on Eastern time for meetings, support and weekly demos.
Few cities concentrate as much research as Boston. Biotech and life-science companies fill Kendall Square and the Seaport, world-known universities and colleges are spread across Boston and Cambridge, and the city's teaching hospitals are among the largest employers in the region. Financial services, asset management and robotics firms add to a workforce that is used to precise, data-heavy work.
That environment produces specific software needs: lab and sample tracking that fits a startup's workflow, internal tools for university departments that central IT has no time to build, patient-facing portals for clinics, and dashboards that pull data from several systems into one view. Light Animation has developed custom software since 2010 for organisations such as Saras Jaipur Dairy, Godrej Locks and Jaipur Traffic Police, and we approach each Boston project by mapping the real workflow first.
We do not have a Boston office. Our New Jersey office handles US contact on the same time zone, and our developers in India build and test the software. For research groups and young companies watching their burn rate, an India-based team is a cost-effective way to get a working system without adding permanent headcount.
Research and lab data tools, internal platforms, patient and student portals, dashboards and SaaS products for Boston organisations, with integrations to the systems you already rely on and full source-code ownership.
Medical and scientific animation that shows a mechanism of action or device, 3D product animation for robotics and hardware, and 2D explainers for investor decks and conference talks.
Websites for startups, labs and university programmes, plus SEO, Google Ads and social campaigns aimed at recruiting, fundraising or patient enquiries.
Sample and inventory tracking, experiment logs, study scheduling and data dashboards for early-stage biotech companies that are not ready for a large enterprise system.
Custom dashboards →Department portals, admissions and event tools, alumni platforms and online course delivery for colleges and university programmes.
Education software →Appointment booking, patient intake, referral tracking and internal workflow tools designed with access control and data privacy in mind.
Healthcare software →Client portals, reporting dashboards and internal workflow tools for advisory, investment and insurance firms.
Fintech software →Operator dashboards, data-labelling tools, computer vision prototypes and MVP web apps for engineering-led startups.
AI software development →Light Animation started as an animation studio, and our animators work closely with our developers. Boston life-science companies use our medical animation to explain a drug's mechanism, a diagnostic test or a surgical device to investors, clinicians and patients. Engineering firms use our 3D product animation to show robots or instruments in action before production units exist. We agree the scientific script and storyboard with your experts before modelling begins, and drafts are reviewed online.
