  • You own what we buildThe code, the designs and the data are yours.

    They listened first, then built exactly what we needed. A demo every week meant no surprises, and the team picked it up in a day.

    The price was fixed, the dates were kept and every question got a straight answer. I would hire them again tomorrow.

    Friendly, patient and clear. They connected our tools so we stopped retyping everything. It saves us hours every week.

Shipped on time and on budget. Sample reviews. Replace them with your own before you launch.

Questions people ask us

Open any question to see the answer.

How much will it cost?

It depends on what you need. Use the estimate above for a rough idea. After a free call we give you a fixed price in writing, before any work starts.

How long will it take?

A first version usually takes 8 to 12 weeks. A clickable prototype is often ready in 2 to 3 weeks. We give you a date you can plan around.

Do I own the code?

Yes. Once the work is paid for, the code, the designs and the data are all yours. We hand over everything, with notes for whoever works on it next.

What if I am not sure what I need?

That is very normal. Start with a free call or a short workshop. We will help you work out what to build first and what can wait.

Will you look after it after launch?

If you would like us to, yes. Our support plan covers fixes, monitoring and small improvements for one plain monthly price. You can cancel any month.

Can you work with the tools we already use?

Usually, yes. We connect new software to the tools you already have, so your team does not have to change everything at once.

How will we stay in touch?

You get a named project lead, a short demo every week and a message whenever something needs your decision. Calls, email or chat, whichever you prefer.

What if we want changes halfway through?

Changes are a normal part of a project. We tell you what a change means for the timeline and the price first, and you decide.

Tell us about your project

A few details is plenty. We will reply within one working day, usually sooner.
