StarMobile is a codeless, cloud-based enterprise mobility platform that allows companies to dynamically transform any application (on-premise or cloud-based applications, or custom systems based on the web, .NET, Win32, Java, Flash, or "green screen") for use on any endpoint with native user experience and native device integration, faster, simpler and at a lower cost than any solution on the planet. Founded in 2012, StarMobile has conceived in the Georgia Tech Networking and Mobile Computing (GNAN) Research Laboratory, under grants from the Georgia Research Alliance and the National Science Foundation. StarMobile employs a revolutionary remote computing protocol called “MORPH” (five patents pending) that was commercialized at VentureLab, the #2 University Business Incubator in the world, under grants from the Georgia Research Alliance and the National Science Foundation. MORPH intelligently derives the mobile app directly from the original application, then applies a series of transformations in real-time to render a native mobile experience to the end-user. StarMobile requires no changes to existing applications, no coding, no exotic skills, no re-building, simple configuration, and low maintenance, with infinite scalability, end-to-end security, and detailed analytics, for any application, any use case, and any endpoint, with native user experience and native device integration. StarMobile is based in Atlanta, Georgia, and its leadership team has 125+ years of experience in enterprise software, mobile computing, and networking at recognized companies, as well as successful startups.
