Software that breaks the old grid.

Iuka Labs is a Columbus, Ohio software studio. We rebuild the systems organizations have outgrown — modern, dependable software built over what came before.

Work with us Why “Iuka”?

What we do

Old systems, new ground.

Legacy rebuilds

The line-of-business app from 2005 still runs your operation. We rebuild it on a modern stack — without losing the institutional knowledge baked into the original.

New applications

Web applications designed and built end to end: data models, interfaces, integrations, and the operational plumbing that keeps them running.

Long-term stewardship

Software isn’t finished at launch. We stay on for the unglamorous work — upgrades, monitoring, and the steady improvements that compound.

The name

The street that wouldn’t follow the grid.

Iuka Avenue, in Columbus’s University District, was the first street in the city to break the grid — it curves with the Iuka Ravine instead of forcing a straight line. The original Iuka Run stream still flows beneath the avenue, culverted over a century ago: old infrastructure under a modern surface.

That’s the work. Software that breaks the old grid, built over what came before.

Chickasaw leader Ishtakiyukatubbe → Iuka, Mississippi → the Battle of Iuka (1862) → Iuka Avenue & Ravine, Columbus → Iuka Labs. Pronounced eye-YOO-kuh.
