Let's Talk →
All projects start with a free discovery call to scope the problem and confirm fit.
Focused Build and Signature Build: 50% upfront, 50% on delivery.
Before you book.
What kinds of tools do you actually build?
Custom internal apps, dashboards, and platforms — anything from a single-purpose tracker to a full multi-user system. If you're managing something important in spreadsheets, manual processes, or a patchwork of tools that don't talk to each other, that's the kind of problem we solve.
How long does a build take?
Focused Builds typically take about a week from kickoff. Signature Builds run 3–4 weeks depending on scope and how quickly you can provide feedback. We'll give you a specific timeline during your discovery call.
What do I need to have ready before we start?
A clear problem you want solved and availability to give feedback during the build. You don't need a technical spec — that's our job. The more specifically you can describe what's eating your time, the better.
What happens after the build is handed off?
You own everything — code, data, all of it. We build in our own environment, then transfer everything cleanly to your accounts at handoff. No lock-in, no dependency on us to keep the lights on. Revision rounds are included in every tier — if you want ongoing support and new features, that's what Studio Partner is for.
How much does custom AI software cost for a small business?
Project-based work starts at $1,500 for a Focused Build — one targeted problem, delivered in about a week. A Signature Build for more complex workflows starts at $3,500. The Studio Partner retainer is $1,500/month for ongoing development. All current spots are founding-client rates, discounted from standard pricing.
What's the typical return on investment?
Most clients recover the cost of a Focused Build within the first month. If a build saves 5 hours a week at $100/hour of billable time, that's $2,000 a month back in capacity. The ROI compounds over time as the tool handles more volume without adding headcount.
