Native or cross-platform?

React Native or Flutter for most consumer apps, Swift/Kotlin when performance or platform APIs demand it. We advise per project.

How much does an MVP cost?

MVPs typically start around $40–$80K depending on scope. We can scope smaller pilots too.

Do you handle App Store submissions?

Yes — full submission, review response, and post-launch monitoring.

Can you continue after launch?

Yes. Monthly retainers cover iteration, bugs, and new feature development.

Do you work with non-technical founders?

Yes — a large share of our app clients are non-technical. We translate business goals into product decisions. Book a Free Growth Audit and our team will walk you through a tailored plan.

Sound familiar?

The problems we solve.

Your MVP is stuck in Figma.

The dev shop shipped code but no product.

You need a designer AND an engineer AND a PM — but you're one person.

The app works but users churn on day two.
