The solution
They required developers with the right expertise to integrate into the team, align with established processes, and contribute to new features while ensuring the platform’s long-term stability. That is where our team came in
Process and Workflow
The team joined the client’s agile workflow, using sprint planning to set priorities and deliverables. Communication ran through Slack and Jira, keeping everyone aligned and transparent. By adapting to shifting needs and working closely with designers and product managers, they delivered new features while ensuring code quality and platform stability.
Contact usStaff Augmentation to Support Scalability
We added experienced engineers who worked as part of the client’s own team, helping them move faster without sacrificing quality. Together, we designed and shipped key features, improved stability, and handled third-party integrations. We also supported infrastructure and architecture decisions, giving the platform a stronger base for growth. With this support, the client hit deadlines, cleared bottlenecks, and kept focus on their long-term vision.
Ensuring personalized care from the very first tap
Besides the possibility to match with a specialized therapist that has been trained in cultural sensibility, the app features a mood tracker and educational resources to complement care, have a more personalized follow-up and maximise positive results in patients.
Data-Driven Progress Tracking
The platform includes a progress tracker measured by the Mental Health Index and the Cultural Impact Index. In this way, the patient can visualize progress and have full control of their treatment.

Why it matters
Anise Health was founded to close a persistent gap in mental healthcare: culturally responsive, evidence-based care for the Asian American community.
Built by clinicians and technologists who understand how culture shapes mental health first hand, Anise combines therapy, coaching, and digital tools tailored to each individual’s identity, values, and lived experience.
More than a teletherapy platform, Anise Health is redefining what accessible, identity-centered mental health care looks like in the modern era, where culture is not a barrier to wellness, but part of the path to it.
"Light-it acts as a really strong strategy thought partner to us. They're really invested in the success of Anise beyond just being an outsourced engineering firm for as."
