Frequently Asked Questions
Have questions? We've got answers. If you don't see what you're looking for, feel free to reach out to us directly.
Do you work with startups, small businesses, or enterprises?
We work with all of them! Our flexible engagement models allow us to build everything from minimum viable products (MVPs) for startup, custom internal tools for small businesses and scalable enterprise applications.
How long does it take to build a custom website?
The timeline depends on the complexity of the project. A standard website might take 4-8 weeks, whereas a complex web application can take anywhere from 3 to 6 months.
Do you handle website hosting and maintenance after launch?
Yes, we provide ongoing hosting and maintenance services to ensure your website remains secure, up-to-date, and performs optimally over time. We have flexible post launch agreements called "Do Not Exceeds" budgets. This allows us to set a max amount of hours per month we can work, if you need us, but there's no requirements to "use it or lose it." Any hours left will just roll over to the following month. Our Startup clients love this flexibility.
What's the difference between a custom website and a template or website builder?
A custom website is built from the foundation tailored specifically to your unique business needs and brand identity. It provides better performance, more complex features, scalability, and flexibility compared to template-based builders which often have limitations in design and functionality. Template builders, on the other hand, are excellent in scenarios where you do not need complex features and you just need a simple, informational, website.
Can you takeover my existing mobile app or website?
Absolutely. We often audit existing codebases and can take over maintenance, add new features, or entirely rebuild apps or websites that are struggling with performance issues. One of the things we pride ourselves on is having launched 100% of the projects we've built. Sadly, that's not very true for most other agencies where the project will fall apart before ever going live despite the client having spent 70% of their budget already.
Which AI technologies do you work with?
We work with leading AI companies such as OpenAI, Anthropic, Google. We typically integrate their powerful Large Language Models (LLMs) and custom machine learning solutions into our clients' products. As a company ourselves, we are also using AI to speed up the development process for all of our clients via tools like Claude Code, Github Copilot, Cursor, Codex, and Google's Antigravity.
How much do you charge?
I hate to say it but, it depends. We price ourselves based on hourly rate x how many hours we think it'll take to build. If you reach out we'd love to get you a free accurate estimation for your project.
What technologies do you use to build websites and apps?
We work primarily with Next.js, Payload CMS, PHP/CodeIgniter, and React Native, hosted on DigitalOcean infrastructure. We favor self-hosted, open-source tools so you own your stack rather than being locked into a vendor.
