How we work

You will know where your project stands. Every week.

Software projects rarely fail loudly. They fail quietly: a scope nobody wrote down, a month of silence, then a demo that is not what you had in your head and a bill that moved. Everything below exists to make both of those impossible.

The short version

Nothing starts until the scope and the price are in writing.
You get a link you can click every week, from week one.
Changes are re-quoted openly, never absorbed into the invoice.
Every account is in your name from day one, not at the end.
STEP 01

Scope call

Forty-five minutes, free, no obligation. We walk through what your team does today and where it breaks. You leave with a straight opinion whether or not you hire us.

STEP 02

Written proposal

Scope, price and dates on paper before anything is signed. A document you could hand to any other developer and get a comparable quote. If we think the project is a bad idea, that goes on paper too.

STEP 03

Weekly builds

A link you can open and click, from week one. Feedback goes into the next week's build, so surprises stay small and cheap. If something is going to be late, you hear it that week.

STEP 04

Launch & handover

Code, accounts and documentation, plus a recorded walkthrough. If you replaced us the following week, nothing would stop working. Support is priced separately, so you are never locked in by default.

Your side of it

Three things we need from you.

Projects slip for client reasons as often as builder reasons. These are the three that matter, and we would rather say them out loud at the start.

One decision-maker

One person who can say yes. Design by committee is the most reliable way to double a timeline.

An hour a week

To look at the build and tell us what is wrong with it. That hour is worth more than any brief.

The real process

Let us see how the work actually happens, including the messy workarounds. Those are usually the requirements.

When things change

Because they will.

Halfway through, you will think of something better. That is normal and usually right. The problem is never the change itself, it is the change that quietly appears on the final invoice.

How we handle it

You ask. We come back within a day with what it costs and what it does to the dates. You say yes or no. Nothing is built and nothing is charged until you have said yes in writing.

If it goes wrong

What you can hold us to.

A process is only worth something if there is a consequence attached. These are ours.

Our commitment

If a milestone slips because of us, you hear about it the same week and the delay is not billed. You can stop the project at any weekly build, pay only for the weeks delivered, and keep everything built so far: code, accounts and documentation. Nothing we build is tied to us to keep running.

Start with the call.

Forty-five minutes, free, and you leave with a written summary and a straight opinion, whether or not anything comes of it.
