ENGAGEMENT MODELS

How We Work

Three engagement shapes, transparent indicative pricing, and a no-surprises process. We’ll recommend the right one on your strategy call — or tell you we’re not the right fit.

Sprint

Best for: a single feature, audit, or PoC.

Timeline
1–2 weeks
Investment
from US$3,500
fixed fee
  • One narrow, well-defined deliverable
  • Senior engineer assigned full-time
  • Daily async updates, one weekly call
  • Full code handover with documentation

Good fit if: Validating an AI integration. Auditing an existing codebase. Building a prototype to show investors.

MOST POPULAR

Fixed-Scope MVP

Best for: founders shipping v1.

Timeline
4–10 weeks
Investment
from US$12,000
fixed fee, milestone-based
  • Discovery, scope and SoW before kickoff
  • Design, build, QA, and store submission
  • Two or three milestone deliveries
  • 30 days of post-launch bug-fix support

Good fit if: You have a validated idea, want a real shippable product, and need a predictable budget.

Embedded Team

Best for: ongoing product development.

Timeline
Monthly retainer
Investment
from US$8,000 / month
per senior engineer
  • Senior engineer(s) embedded with your team
  • Sprint cadence aligned with your process
  • Direct Slack / Linear / Notion collaboration
  • No long-term lock-in; 30 days notice

Good fit if: You have a product team and need senior Flutter / FlutterFlow / AI capacity for 3+ months.

From first call to shipped code

01

Strategy call

A 30-minute call to understand what you’re building, who it’s for, and where AI fits. No sales pitch.

02

Scope & proposal

Within 3 business days, a written proposal: scope, milestones, timeline, fixed fee or retainer. No surprises later.

03

Kickoff

Signed SoW, NDA if you need one, Slack channel, repo access. We start within a week of sign-off.

04

Build & ship

Async-first with one weekly call. You see progress on a shared board. Code is yours from day one.

05

Handover

Documentation, walkthrough video, 30-day support window included on every MVP engagement.

When we’re not the right fit

We’ll tell you on the strategy call if any of these apply. Saves you a discovery fee and us a misaligned project.

  • Budgets under US$3,500 — freelance marketplaces will serve you better.
  • Pure native-only iOS or Android (Swift/Kotlin only) — we lead with Flutter.
  • Pure design-only work without development — design studios will go deeper.
  • "Just clone X app exactly" with no product thinking — we’re builders, not copiers.
