    need some quick answers?

    • Do you provide a fixed price?

      • Yes we do, but only for small projects where the scope is clear up front. This could include design and consulting projects, as well as very basic mobile app development. Large projects that span many months are not a good fit for fixed price. In those cases we provide a fixed weekly price and estimate the number of weeks required – without locking you into a set scope of work upfront.

    • How much does custom software cost?

      • For a simple mobile application you might invest $25,000 to $35,000 for design and development. For a more complex project, expect to invest $20,000 to $35,000 to have your software designed and architected. Then $30,000 and up for custom software development. All-in, we recommend budgets in the low 6-figures to get to version one of a complex software build. If this sounds feasible and you’d like to discuss, please contact us using the form on this page.

    • How long does it take to develop a mobile application?

      • Expect 1 to 2 months for a simple mobile application, or 3 to 6 months to get to version one of a complex software development project.

    • Do you use offshore or outsource developers?

      • No. Mobile application design and development is our specialty. Our entire team (including all of our developers) is located in the United States.

    • We need someone to fix our existing software, can you help?

      • We rarely take on projects that involve fixing or maintaining code written by other developers. Read our thoughts on that here. If you plan on replacing or rewriting your software, that’s something we do, please reach out using the form on this page.

    • What is your technology stack?
      • Native iOS apps: Swift
      • Android apps: Kotlin and Java
      • Cross-platform apps: Flutter, Dart
      • APIs: .NET and C#
      • Web Applications: Angular, HTML, CSS and TypeScript
      • Hosting: Microsoft Azure
    • Will you sign an NDA before we talk?

      • No. An NDA is a contract. We only sign contracts with our clients. A confidentiality agreement is part of our Master Services Agreement when you hire us though.
