About Digital Scientists
We Are
Digital Scientists.
We don’t just build software. We partner with companies to discover what’s worth building, prove it works, and ship it. One team. Strategy through production. Focused on improving the human experience with technology.
Your innovation partner since 2007.
Founded in 2007—and turning 20 next year—Digital Scientists was built by Bob Klein with a simple conviction: companies need a partner who helps them figure out what to build—not just a team that builds what they’re told. We work alongside our clients to discover opportunities, validate ideas with real evidence, and turn the best ones into production software they own.
Over 15 years, that approach has produced more than 200 products across healthcare, energy, defense, fintech, logistics, and IoT. We help companies drive their own innovation and capture their own IP. Our longest client relationship spans 7 years. Our work has served 26,000+ patients, recovered $10M+ in revenue, and powered platforms used by millions.
Everything we do serves the same mission: improving the human experience with technology. Whether that means building telehealth systems for rural patients, modernizing nuclear safety platforms, or giving a startup the tools to launch—the question is always the same: does this make life better for the people who use it? Our methodology—Discover, Experiment, Engineer, Optimize—ensures the answer is yes before we invest a dollar in production.

Three Things We Do Differently
Most software projects fail because the team is wrong, the approach is wrong, or the thinking is missing. We fix all three.
Innovation partners, not vendors
Every engagement starts with strategy. Product managers, designers, and engineers work together from day one to discover what’s worth building and why. You keep the IP. You own the roadmap. We help you see around corners and move faster than your market.
Senior teams only
No juniors billing learning hours to your project. Every person on your team has shipped production software before. Our engineers average 10+ years of experience. That means fewer mistakes, faster decisions, and code that does not need to be rewritten six months later.
Evidence at every stage
Our methodology means every phase produces proof: a validated hypothesis, working software, or measurable outcomes. You never invest in the next phase on faith. Evidence earns the next dollar. If the evidence says stop, we stop. That is the methodology working.
What Drives Us
These are not slogans on a wall. They shape how we hire, how we work, and how we show up for our clients every day.
Curiosity
The foundation of our research practice. We are constantly learning, always discovering how to push boundaries and move forward.
Humility
We believe openness to listening is critical to growth. We don’t know everything. Sometimes a failed experiment is our best teacher.
Discipline
Fidelity to our process and methodology matters. We practice what we preach, constantly seeking improvement to our way of doing things.
Trust
We commit. We desire more than just a contract—we work to earn lasting partnerships with our clients.
Discover. Experiment. Engineer. Optimize.
Every engagement follows the same logic. Four phases, each one producing evidence that earns the next investment. You do not have to start at the beginning. Most clients enter at the phase that matches where they are today.
The framework applies whether you are exploring an AI opportunity, building a healthcare platform, or modernizing a legacy system. Same rigor, same team structure, same commitment to proof over assumptions.

Trusted Across Industries and Scale
From Fortune 500 enterprises to high-growth startups, we have partnered with companies at every stage to build software that moves their business forward.
Where We Work
We have shipped production software in the most regulated, complex, and high-stakes industries in America. If it needs to be right, we have done it before.
Healthcare
Our deepest vertical. HIPAA-compliant platforms, clinical workflow automation, EHR integrations, revenue cycle optimization, and telehealth systems serving 26,000+ patients. If it touches PHI, we have built it.
Explore Healthcare →Energy
Nuclear safety, regulatory compliance, and operational complexity. We build software for environments where failure is not an option, including multi-year engagements with INPO, the nuclear industry’s self-regulating body.
Explore Energy →Defense
Mission-critical systems for government and DoD environments. Security-first architecture, compliance frameworks, and software built for operations where uptime is measured in lives, not SLAs.
Explore Defense →Let’s build something.
Whether you need to explore an idea, prove a concept, or ship production software, we’ll match you with the right starting point.
