A useful place
to start.

HOW WE APPROACH IT

Built around the real job.

We define the first version before we build it. Your quote records the deliverables, assumptions, exclusions, costs and delivery plan.

  • Workflows mapped with the people who use them
  • A database and clearly defined user permissions
  • Agreed integrations with your existing systems
  • User testing, training and a practical handover

A FEW GOOD QUESTIONS

Straight questions.
Straight answers.

Let’s make the first step a little easier.

Which service should I choose?+

A website explains your business; an ecommerce site sells products; a mobile app delivers a focused experience on a phone. Business software manages your operations. Automation connects existing tools using rules, while an AI assistant interprets information for one task. A business platform with AI combines several workflows in a larger system. Start with a free discovery call if you’re unsure.

What does the starting price include?+

Each offer lists a starter scope and an example. Websites start at £1,000, ecommerce at £2,000, starter mobile apps at £3,000, business software at £5,000, business platforms with AI at £10,000, workflow automation at £750 and AI assistants at £2,000. We agree your actual deliverables, fixed price and timeline in writing. Larger or more complex requirements are quoted separately.

How are payments and changes handled?+

For smaller projects, our standard arrangement is 50% to book and 50% after acceptance, before final handover. Larger builds use agreed milestone payments. Projects include two agreed review rounds. If you request new features or a change of scope, we agree the cost and schedule before doing that work.

Who owns the finished work?+

After full payment, you own the bespoke code and project work created for you, as set out in your agreement. Third-party software, services and open-source components remain subject to their own licences. Your handover explains the accounts, access and ongoing costs.

What happens after launch?+

A 30-day bug-fix period covers faults against the agreed scope. New features and changes are separate. Optional care starts at £100/month; managed AI care starts at £200/month. Hosting, subscriptions and AI usage are itemised separately. The project agreement confirms your handover and support arrangements.

How do you keep AI under control?+

We agree what an assistant can access, the tasks it can perform and which actions need human approval. We test it with representative examples and define how exceptions are handled. A simple assistant and a full platform have different scopes, which we make explicit in your quote.
