We make a point of keeping our clients needs as top priority during every step of the process.
About Us
Alethia Inc is rapidly gaining a name for itself in the web development industry. Alethia is centered in Tokyo, Japan but also has team members in Osaka, as well as in the United States, truly making this an international company, which has come a long way in the year that we have been operational.
We have people that specialize in all particular areas of the web development industry. This diversity brings us a broad set of skills from Flash, HTML5, jQuery developers, to back end database management, and page design from the ground up.
Currently Alethia Inc bases most of our work around the open source projects of MediaFront, Ubercart and the Drupal CMS, which allows us full control and near unlimited possibilities when it comes to developing a web service to perfectly fit our clients’ needs.
Alethia Inc is contributing to the open source community and is behind the MediaFront open source project. As we grow we plan on increasing our contribution to this community with more and wider reaching open source projects.
