What we can build for you

Apps, websites and the systems behind them — scoped in writing, built in the open, and handed over as something you own. Take one piece of it or all of it.

Mobile apps

Android and iOS from one codebase — React Native and Expo. Built, signed, and taken all the way through store review.

  • One codebase for both platforms, so you pay once and ship twice
  • Offline-first where it matters — the app keeps working on a weak connection
  • Push notifications, camera, maps, payments, file uploads
  • Play Store and App Store submission, screenshots, listing copy and policy pages
  • Release tracks: internal testing → closed testing → staged public rollout

Websites & landing pages

Fast, clean sites that load in under a second on a phone on mobile data — and that people can actually find.

  • Static sites: no WordPress to keep patched, far less to break or hack
  • Mobile-first design, dark mode, accessible markup
  • SEO groundwork — titles, meta, structured data, sitemap, canonical URLs
  • A working contact form that reaches your inbox, with spam protection
  • Domain, SSL and hosting set up for you, often for the cost of a small VPS

Web applications & dashboards

The internal software a business actually runs on — logins, roles, records, reports and exports.

  • Role-based access: office, staff and customer views of the same data
  • Dashboards with the numbers you check every morning
  • CSV and PDF exports, printable reports, bulk imports
  • Multi-branch and multi-user from day one, not bolted on later

Backends & APIs

The part nobody sees and everything depends on — designed to stay up, stay fast, and not lose your data.

  • REST APIs in Node and TypeScript, documented endpoint by endpoint
  • PostgreSQL or SQLite, with a migration path as you grow
  • Authentication, roles and permissions done properly
  • Payment, SMS and email integrations
  • Automated backups — and a restore we have actually tested

Deployment & maintenance

Getting it live, and keeping it live. Servers, certificates, monitoring, backups and the unglamorous parts.

  • VPS setup: Nginx, HTTPS, firewall, a non-root deploy user
  • Error monitoring and uptime alerts, so we hear about it before you do
  • Scheduled backups held off the server
  • Dependency and OS security updates
  • Support that fits — ad-hoc, or a monthly retainer

Product & scoping help

Not sure what to build yet? We will help cut the idea down to a first version worth paying for.

  • Turning a rough idea into a written, buildable scope
  • What goes into v1, and what honestly waits for v2
  • Screen-by-screen flows before a line of code is written
  • A straight answer on cost, time, and the risky parts
Ways to work together

Three ways we usually start

Every project is quoted on what it actually needs — there is no package to squeeze your idea into.

Fixed-scope project

A defined thing with a defined price — an app, a website, a portal. Scope, screens and timeline agreed in writing before we start. Best when you know roughly what you want.

Monthly retainer

A set amount of our time each month for whatever needs doing: new features, fixes, updates, someone to call when something breaks. Best after launch, or for a product that keeps evolving.

Take over an existing app

Someone else built it and left. We read the code, tell you honestly what state it is in and what it will cost to stabilise, then keep it running.

The process

From first call to something live

  1. Talk it through

    A call or a long email. What are you trying to fix, who will use it, and what does success look like? No charge, no obligation.

  2. A written scope

    You get screens, a feature list, a timeline and a price in writing — including what we are deliberately leaving out of the first version.

  3. Build in the open

    We build in short increments and you see the real thing running every week, on your own phone or a test link. Course corrections are cheap here.

  4. Launch

    Store submission, domain, SSL, servers, backups and monitoring. Then we hand over the accounts — they are yours, in your name.

  5. Keep it running

    Bugs, updates, OS and store-policy changes, and the next round of features. Ad-hoc or a monthly retainer, your call.

Questions

The things people ask first

How long does a project take?

A marketing website is usually two to three weeks. A first version of a mobile app is typically six to twelve weeks depending on how much it has to do, plus store review at the end. We give you a real timeline with the written scope — before you commit, not after.

Do I own the code?

Yes. Source code, the domain, the store listings, the server and the database are all yours and stay in your accounts. We hand over credentials at launch. If you ever want to work with someone else, nothing here stops you.

What does it cost?

It depends entirely on what is being built, so we quote per project rather than publishing a price list that would be wrong for you. The first conversation and the written estimate are free, and the price we put in writing is the price you pay for that scope.

Can you publish the app to the Play Store and App Store for me?

Yes — and we prefer the accounts be in your name, with us added as a developer. We handle the build, signing, listing copy, screenshots, the privacy policy pages the stores demand, and the review process, including the testing requirements Google now applies to new developer accounts.

What happens after launch?

Apps are not finished at launch: phones update, store policies change, dependencies pick up security fixes, and real users find things. We will tell you what ongoing work is genuinely needed and offer either ad-hoc support or a monthly retainer. You are never obliged to take it.

Do you work with businesses outside Chhindwara?

Yes. We are based in Chhindwara and work remotely with clients anywhere — calls, email and a test link you can open on your own phone. Nothing about this work needs us in the same room, though we are happy to be for the big conversations.

Will you sign an NDA?

Yes, gladly — send yours, or ask and we will send a simple one. Your idea and your data stay yours either way.

We only need a small website. Is that too small?

No. A fast, well-built single-page site is a perfectly good project and one of the most useful things a small business can own. It is also often the start of a longer conversation.

Tell us what you are trying to build

Send a paragraph about the problem. You will get a straight answer on whether it is worth building, how long it would take, and what it would cost — before any money changes hands.
