Custom Software Development Services

The duration of a custom software project can vary significantly. A basic application with limited functionality and no integrations may be completed within 2–3 months. For mid-sized business platforms or SaaS products with third-party APIs, the timeline ranges from 4 to 6 months. More complex solutions—such as enterprise-grade systems, data-heavy platforms, or multi-role user apps—may require 9 to 12+ months. We always begin with a discovery and architecture phase to accurately estimate delivery and align expectations from the start.

The main cost drivers are project complexity, feature set, integrations, technology stack, required compliance, and delivery speed. For example, apps with real-time processing, multiple user roles, advanced analytics, or strict security policies (like HIPAA or GDPR) require more engineering effort. The number of screens, API endpoints, testing scenarios, and third-party services also contribute. We provide detailed proposals after evaluating your needs and offer options for phased delivery or MVP-first to control budget without sacrificing long-term scalability.

Yes—your level of involvement can be as active or hands-off as you prefer. Most clients choose to participate in sprint reviews, backlog prioritization, and feedback loops. We provide access to tools like Jira or ClickUp for tracking tasks and communication platforms like Slack or Teams for day-to-day updates. Weekly or bi-weekly check-ins ensure alignment, transparency, and the ability to pivot if your priorities evolve. You’ll never be in the dark—we believe in full visibility from start to finish.

We offer flexible engagement models based on your business needs. For clearly defined scopes, a fixed-price model ensures predictability. For evolving projects or startups, time & materials provides flexibility and faster iteration. Our most popular option—dedicated team—gives you full control over the roadmap and access to developers, QA, and a project manager who work exclusively on your product. This model is ideal for long-term partnerships where continuity, knowledge retention, and speed of delivery matter.

All custom code and intellectual property are legally assigned to you through our standard contract and NDA. We follow best practices in access control, versioning, and internal security audits. Sensitive business logic and architecture documentation are shared securely. We do not reuse or relicense any part of your project. Your data and proprietary features remain yours, fully and unconditionally.
