Choose your goal, then your business type. See a starting concept and decide whether you'd like to discuss it.

A personal approach

A real conversation.
A thoughtful way forward.

I'm Wade McLean, the person behind McLean Applied Technology. Based in Herndon, I help Northern Virginia businesses build useful websites, apps, and smarter workflows. You work directly with me, from our first conversation through development.

We start with the people who will use it and the task it needs to make easier. Together, we define a focused first version, discuss scope and priorities, and agree on the next step before development begins.
