As 2024 comes to a close, all of us at Blue Whale Apps are taking a moment to reflect on a year full of accomplishments, growth, and meaningful connections. This year has been all about creating technology that brings people together, simplifies daily life, and inspires creativity.
We’re thrilled to share the stories behind five of our biggest projects this year: Social Circle, Mint Chef, Carving Application, KDOC, and Handyman Services. Each one represents our passion for solving real problems and making life easier for people across North America.

The app has already gained traction among professionals, social groups, and event organizers, redefining how people connect and collaborate.
Mint Chef: Gourmet Dining Made Easy
At Blue Whale Apps, we know food brings people together, but we also know that preparing healthy, delicious meals at home can be stressful. That’s why we teamed up with Mint Personal Chef Services to launch Mint Chef, an app that makes personalized dining easy and accessible.

From busy families looking to simplify mealtime to individuals hosting unforgettable dinner parties, Mint Chef has become the go-to app for anyone who loves delicious food but doesn’t want the hassle.
Campaign Canvassing App: Revolutionizing Political Outreach
We partnered with a prominent political organization to introduce a cutting-edge canvassing app, setting new standards for campaign management and voter engagement.

KDOC: Enhancing Public Safety with Better Tools
This year, we partnered with the Kansas Department of Corrections (KDOC) to create a powerful app designed to streamline operations and improve public safety.
- What It Does:
KDOC provides corrections professionals with secure access to policies, records, and facility updates—all in real time. - Why It’s Important:
Public safety requires precision and efficiency. This app reduces paperwork, speeds up processes, and ensures critical information is always accurate and accessible. - The Results:
Professionals working in public safety and corrections have shared how KDOC has helped them focus on their work instead of being bogged down by manual systems.
Handyman Services: Stress-Free Home Repairs
For many of us, home repairs can be a major headache. That’s why we partnered with Capital Appliance Service to launch a Handyman Services platform that connects users with trusted professionals for appliance repairs and maintenance.
