Case Study: Mako Invent achieves lean growth and streamlined IT with Google Chrome Browser

How Mako Invent Discovered Lean Growth With The Help of Google Chrome Browser

Mako Invent (and sister firm Mako Design), founded by Kevin Mako, is a product development company that helps inventors and manufacturers take ideas to market—launching more than 150 products last year with a 25‑person team across Toronto, Austin and London. The company needed a nimble, consistent way to access web‑based design, prototyping and CRM tools, streamline onboarding and device switching, and keep IT simple and secure while staying lean.

Mako standardized on Google Chrome Browser and Google Apps, using pre‑installed bookmarks and extensions, device sync, automatic six‑week updates and the Google Admin console for centralized management. The result: faster onboarding, consistent access to tools across devices, lower IT overhead and improved team productivity—letting the company maintain security and scale its product development capabilities while supporting more early‑stage entrepreneurs.
