About

Our Story

In 2016, our founders, Jake and Theo Dluhy-Smith, founded OAK'S LAB. The Czech-American brother duo saw the potential that Prague had to offer and embarked on their entrepreneurial journey to connect visionary American founders with exceptional Czech product development teams.
‍
We were not founded to become yet another software house. Jake and Theo had a vision to help the next generation of founders transform bold ideas into legendary startups that truly improve life and the world.
‍
With no investor backing, they built our company from the bottom up and brought together an empowered team of startup builders who have grown OAK’S LAB into a global startup technology partner. To this day, we have helped numerous founders turn ideas into businesses worth hundreds of millions of dollars.
