How we work

Speed is a system, not an accident.

Weekly demos. Clear scope. No surprises. You'll always know exactly where things stand and what's shipping next.

01

Discover

1-2 days

We start by understanding - really understanding - what you're trying to accomplish.

  • Goals, constraints, and success metrics
  • User needs and pain points
  • Technical landscape and integrations
  • Timeline and budget realities
Outcome: You get a clear scope document, timeline, and estimate. No surprises later.
02

Design & Prototype

1 week

Before we write production code, we validate the approach with interactive prototypes.

  • User flows and wireframes
  • Interactive Figma prototypes
  • Technical architecture design
  • API contracts and data models
Outcome: You can click through the product before it's built. Catch issues early, not after launch.
03

Build

2-8 weeks

Weekly sprints with weekly demos. You see progress constantly and can adjust as we go.

  • Weekly sprint planning (Monday)
  • Daily async updates
  • Demo every Friday
  • Continuous deployment to staging
Outcome: Working software every week. No black box. No big reveal at the end.
04

Launch

1 week

Production deployment with monitoring, training, and documentation.

  • Production infrastructure setup
  • Monitoring and alerting
  • Team training and documentation
  • Launch support and bug fixes
Outcome: Your product is live, monitored, and ready for real users.
05

Iterate

Ongoing

Learn from real usage and continuously improve.

  • Analytics review
  • User feedback synthesis
  • Feature prioritization
  • Continuous improvement sprints
Outcome: A product that gets better based on real data, not guesses.

Principles we live by

Scope discipline

We say no to scope creep. If something new comes up, we discuss tradeoffs openly.

Transparency

You have access to our code repos, project boards, and everything in between.

No handoffs

The people you talk to are the people who build. No account managers in between.

Ship small, ship often

We'd rather ship 10 small releases than one big bang. Less risk, faster feedback.

Communication that doesn't suck

We're not going to flood your inbox or disappear for weeks. Here's how we stay in sync.

📅

Weekly demos (Fridays)

See what shipped, give feedback, plan next week.

💬

Shared Slack/Teams channel

Async questions answered within hours, not days.

📊

Shared project board

See exactly what's in progress, what's next, what's done.

📧

Weekly written summary

For stakeholders who prefer email - a concise update every Monday.

Frequently asked questions

What if the scope changes?

It happens. We discuss every change openly: what it adds, what it pushes out, and whether the tradeoff is worth it. No hidden costs, no surprises.

Do we own the code?

Yes. 100%. Full source code, documentation, and handoff support. No vendor lock-in.

What's your tech stack?

We're pragmatic, not dogmatic. React/Next.js for web, React Native or native for mobile, Node.js/Python/Go for backend. We pick what fits your needs, not what's trendy.

How do you handle bugs after launch?

Critical bugs are fixed immediately as part of launch support. We typically include 2-4 weeks of post-launch support in every project.

What if we want to continue after the initial project?

Great - many clients do. We can shift to a monthly retainer for ongoing development, or hand off to your team with full documentation and support.
