Every custom build starts with a conversation. We define scope and price in writing before building.
How we start
Discovery
Before we build, we make it clear what gets built. A short phase where we define the full scope, the flows, and a fixed price for development — no surprises.
- Sessions to understand your operation and your goals.
- Functional spec: what the software does, screen by screen.
- User flows and technical approach.
- Fixed price and timeline for development, in writing.
Credited 100% toward development if you proceed. The scope document is yours either way.
