Frequently asked questions
There’s no long sales process. Tell us what you need built, or who you need to build it, and we’ll tell you plainly if we’re the right people.
Start a conversation →Read the blog →We are a software development agency: we build web applications, business platforms, websites and online stores, and we work on the search and AI visibility that brings people to them. Some companies need more engineers than they have. So we put that team together too.
No. A project can be a full build from scratch, or a piece of work inside a larger product. Or a review of something that already exists, or a team that joins yours and stays.
Often we do. We can add individual specialists to the team you have, or run a separate team alongside it. Your process and your priorities stay yours.
Our engineering team can deliver your project through us, or we can help you hire skilled professionals who join your company directly. Many clients begin with a dedicated team and later hire the right people permanently.
For most work, weeks rather than months. A single specialist is usually faster than a full team. And a hire for your own payroll takes longest.
Yes. Our specialists are in several countries and time zones. That's what makes it possible to find a specific skill quickly, instead of waiting months.
By default it's yours. In your own repositories and accounts, handed over as we go rather than at the end. Anything different is agreed in writing before work starts.
Whatever you need. Maintenance, security updates, monitoring, performance work and new features. As an ongoing agreement, a monthly block of time, or occasional help.
Most of our work is covered by confidentiality agreements. So we don't publish client names. We can talk through relevant examples in a call.
Whatever fits the job, rather than one stack we sell to everyone. What stays constant is tested code, clear documentation and a system your own team, or the next one, can actually maintain.
Yes. Most of our work is covered by a mutual non-disclosure agreement, signed before we get into the specifics of your project.
Both, depending on how settled the scope is. A clearly defined project is usually fixed-price. A dedicated team, or work where the scope will move, is time and materials. We tell you which one fits before you commit to either.
Both. We build new software from scratch, and we also improve, extend or take over software that already exists. Which one fits depends on what you have today, and we tell you when improving it is a better route than rebuilding.
Yes. We build a first version real enough to put in front of users, structured so the next version doesn't start again from zero. That's covered in more detail on our startup software development page.
Not one particular industry. What they tend to have in common is complexity: regulated sectors, software that is core to the business rather than a side tool, and teams that have outgrown what an off-the-shelf product can do.
Tell us what you're trying to build, or who you're trying to hire. The first conversation is free. And we'll say plainly if we're not the right fit.
