TXI is a strategy and product firm helping clients close the gap between ambition and reality.
Drive your business forward with engaging digital experiences
We founded TXI in 2002 with the philosophy that “trust is harder to build than technology.” Partnering with Fortune 100s, startups, industry leaders, and mission-driven organizations to deliver value through product innovation, we’ve continually earned that trust with each new product, user insight, and digital strategy.

Clients trust TXI to deliver innovative solutions that solve the most complex business problems. That trust runs deep and results in partnerships that span decades. We’re here to help guide you through every step of the way, ensure you make the right decisions, and more importantly, deliver the digital products you need.
When you partner with us, we treat your success like our own. That's why we make these four promises:
We act as one team
Great products require great collaboration, and great collaboration requires trust. We earn yours from day one, welcoming you into every step of our process.
We ask hard questions
Tech only works if it’s right for your business. During discovery, we dig in to eliminate ideas that don’t add value and find opportunities for real impact.
We mind the money
No surprises, just the most value for the dollar. We provide transparency into the risks, budget, scope, and progress of a product so you understand clearly how things are going.
We give you control
Part of our work involves preparing your team to take the driver’s seat. With TXI as a partner, you own your success.
We blend product, design, and engineering across web, mobile, IoT, and data into an integrated approach that's proven critical to our partners' success. We’re with you from concept to completion to iteration, making sure at every step that what we're building will delight users.

Pragmatic innovation starts with actionable insights drawn from the diverse experiences of real people. That’s why we center people from the start—identifying the most critical challenges to address—then leverage our expertise to the solutions that create the most value financially and socially.
Desirability
Do people find the product valuable? Does it address their needs? Does it fit into their lives and work? Does the experience make them care?
Feasibility
Can it be built? How much will it cost? How long will it take? How lean can it go?
Reality
What amount of change will it drive? What impact will it create? How it will affect desired outcomes? Is it meaningfully different from the competition?
Opportunity
Does it support organizational goals? Is it commercially viable and financially sustainable? Is it extensible beyond this iteration?

TXI doesn’t talk about what’s good for TXI. They say: ‘Here's what we’re seeing and here's what we want to do to help your business.’ That is something you can’t buy.
TXI is a 100% employee-owned ESOP company. We chose ESOP to make our company more resilient, to make ownership more equitable, and to give all employees the benefit of the value they create. Learn more about employee ownership at TXI.
