FAQ

Common
Questions

Can't find what you're looking for? Contact us — we respond within one business day.

How long does a typical project take?
+
Project timelines vary by scope. A simple web presence can launch in 4–6 weeks. A custom enterprise system typically takes 3–6 months. During discovery, we provide a detailed project plan with milestones before any work begins.
Do you work with startups or only large enterprises?
+
We work across the spectrum — from early-stage startups building their first MVP to large enterprises modernising complex legacy systems. Our engagement models scale to match your stage and budget.
What happens after the project launches?
+
All projects include a 30-day post-launch warranty period. Beyond that, we offer flexible retainer plans for ongoing maintenance, enhancements, and support. We aim to be a long-term technology partner, not just a vendor.
How do you handle project communication?
+
Every project gets a dedicated project manager who is your single point of contact. We use Jira for task tracking, Slack for daily communication, and hold structured weekly calls. You always have full visibility into what's happening.
Can you work with our existing technology stack?
+
Absolutely. We work within your existing stack rather than demanding you change technology for our convenience. Our engineers are polyglots — fluent in most mainstream languages and frameworks used in production today.
Do you sign NDAs and who owns the code?
+
Yes, we sign NDAs at the start of any engagement. All intellectual property, source code, and assets developed during a project transfer fully to you upon final payment. You own everything — no licensing fees, no lock-in. OR We own all copyrights and lease it to you
