About Iceberg

Iceberg is a Dublin, Ireland, company founded by Wayne and Robert Byrne (no relation). The developers formed a company after high school and began developing Iceberg out of frustration with the state of software. Now when you plan an application it’s done, and done better – iceberg adds enterprise features like scheduling, workflow and tracking automatically.
Our mission is to create a language of intelligence by empowering everyone to turn their knowledge and requirements into living applications.
