Startly Technologies (originally and still doing business as CE Software) is a software development company based in West Des Moines, Iowa.
[edit] History
CE Software began as the programming arm of Computer Emporium, a retail computer store begun in 1978 by Richard Skeie, and started publishing software in 1981. SwordThrust, a text adventure game for the Apple II by Donald Brown, was one of the company's first titles. Projects over the next 20 years focused on business communications and productivity, with various software solutions for both Macintosh and Windows platforms.
In April 2004, a group of CE Software employees formed Startly Technologies, acquiring the operating assets of CE Software and taking the company private.
