- Dan Reynolds, Founder We Build Databases -
Before we write a single line of code, we make sure we understand your data challenges so we can build a solution that meets your specific needs. From the software look and layout to the coding and the framework that supports it.
We Build Databases (WBD) designs custom databases, business applications and AI workflows built around your data, systems, and people. Founded in 2006 and based in Washington, Michigan, we've delivered 500+ projects for organizations across the United States and Canada.
Custom Database
Development
Tailored solutions built for your unique business requirements.
Cloud Database
Development
Seamless migration and optimization for AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud.
Data Visualization
& Reporting
Transform raw data into actionable insights.
We combine deep technical expertise with a client-first approach. Our custom database development process starts with understanding your business goals, not just your technical requirements. Plus, we offer ongoing database consulting support, not just a one-time build.
Typical custom database projects take 2–4 months from discovery to launch. Replacing or modernizing an existing system can take longer, depending on how much data and how many workflows need to move over.
Both! We've helped startups build their first database architecture and organizations like Marshfield Clinic Health System, Virginia State University, and the National Kidney Foundation modernize their data infrastructure. Our database consulting approach scales to your needs and budget.
Our lead industries are manufacturing, healthcare, higher education, nonprofit, legal, logistics and finance. We've built systems that handle regulated data, including health records and student data, and we design with privacy requirements in mind.
Yes. Our AI data preparation service cleans and structures your data first. Then our AI integrations connect assistants, agents and workflows to it, scoped and tested for the job you need done.
Yes. The same team that built your system stays on for maintenance and hosting, performance monitoring and ongoing changes after launch.
We're based in Washington, Michigan and work with organizations across the United States and Canada.
It means connecting an assistant or automated workflow to the data and systems you already use. For example, an assistant that answers staff questions from your own records, or a workflow that reads incoming documents and updates your database. We define each task and test the results before it goes live.
Yes, when the connection is securely built for it. We connect AI tools through an API or MCP, with permissions limited to the data each task needs.
