How we work
We run in two-week sprints with a working demo at the end of every one. You see progress continuously rather than at a single dramatic reveal, which means course corrections cost days instead of months. Every sprint ends with a build you can click through and comment on.
Typical timeline
Most engagements in this practice land in the 1–6 weeks range, depending on integrations, compliance requirements and how much of your domain we need to learn. You get a phased roadmap with dates after discovery — and we flag slippage the week it appears, not at the end.

Frequently Asked
Questions
A focused website or landing build runs 3–5 weeks. A production web or mobile app is usually 8–16 weeks depending on scope, integrations and compliance needs. We share a phased roadmap with dates after the discovery call, so you always know what ships when.
A clear problem statement, your success metrics, access to any existing systems or designs, and one decision-maker we can work with. We run a kickoff workshop in week one to lock scope, and everything else we can build from there.
React, Next.js, TypeScript and Node.js on the web; React Native and native builds for mobile; Python for data and automation; PostgreSQL and managed databases for storage; AWS and Azure for infrastructure, with Docker and CI/CD pipelines throughout.
Yes. A large share of our work is picking up an inherited codebase, auditing it, stabilising it and then shipping new features. We start with a technical audit so you get an honest read on the state of things before committing to a plan.
Every project includes a support window covering bug fixes, monitoring and handover. Beyond that we offer ongoing retainers for maintenance, security patching, performance work and continuous feature delivery.
Fixed-scope projects are quoted as a single figure with a milestone payment schedule. Longer engagements run as monthly retainers. Either way you get a written scope, and we flag any change in effort before doing the work — never after.
