SERVING PHILADELPHIA • HEALTHCARE, LIFE SCIENCES & EDUCATION

Custom Software Development Company in Philadelphia

Light Animation builds custom software, web apps, medical animation and digital marketing for Philadelphia organisations. Our US office is in New Jersey, within driving distance, and our engineering team in India keeps hours that overlap Eastern Time.

Software for Philadelphia's Hospitals, Labs and Campuses

Philadelphia's biggest employers are its hospitals and universities. Large academic medical centres, a nationally known children's hospital and dozens of specialist practices sit alongside the University of Pennsylvania, Drexel, Temple and many smaller colleges. Around them, a strong life sciences cluster has grown, including cell and gene therapy companies, contract research organisations and the pharmaceutical corridor that stretches into the suburbs and New Jersey.

Organisations like these handle sensitive data, complex scheduling and reporting to funders and regulators. Light Animation has built custom software since 2010 from Jaipur, India, and works with Philadelphia clients through video calls, a shared roadmap and weekly demos. When a face-to-face meeting helps, our office in Hillside, New Jersey is a manageable drive up the turnpike.

The city also has a busy port on the Delaware River, a large logistics base and plenty of small and mid-sized businesses. For all of them, an India-based team offers a lower-cost route to software that fits instead of software they have to work around.

Medical and Educational Animation for Philadelphia

Philadelphia's research and healthcare community has a constant need to explain complex ideas clearly, whether to patients, investors, students or regulators. Our medical animation shows how a drug acts, how a device is used or how a procedure is performed. Universities use our 2D and whiteboard animation for online courses and outreach, and life sciences startups use explainer videos for pitches. Scripts are checked with your experts before any animation begins. We can also add captions and alternate voiceovers so the same video works for patients, staff and conference audiences.
