Prototype Sprint
A working version of the main thing your app does, running on real iPhones and Android phones — enough to put in front of customers or investors.

Engagements
All engagementsScoped, priced, and bookable.
No endless discovery calls. Each one is a fixed piece of work — book a call and we start on the date you pick. What it costs comes down to what the app has to do rather than which of the three you choose, so the rates are just below.
Launch Engagement
The whole build — plus the parts nobody warns you about: Apple's certificate maze, test builds in your team's hands, and a store page designed to earn the download.
Ship Retainer
A standing two-person team for updates, new phone releases, and the small fixes that never quite become their own project.
What it costs
Pricing based on what you need.
Slide from an app that never leaves the phone to one wired into the systems you already run. Each step adds something to build — and something to keep running.
From $18,000one-time, for iPhone and Android
Everything lives on the phone. No accounts, no sign-in, nothing to keep running after we hand it over.
A dosing calculator, a field checklist, a reference guide, a training tool.
Just one of the two starts at $10,000 — the second platform costs less than the first, because the design and the store work are done once.
Offline apps can still be complex — anything regulated, or doing heavy work on the device itself, is scoped on its own.
From $36,000billed $12,000 a month
People sign in, and their information follows them from phone to phone. You can send them notifications. We build and run the piece that stores it.
A patient intake app, a booking app, anything with saved history or a profile.
Includes building and running the server side.
From $60,000billed $20,000 a month
The app plugs into systems you already run — your records, scheduling, or billing — and we handle the privacy rules that come with them.
An app that reads your practice's schedule, or writes back to the system of record.
Includes the server side, and connecting it to one system you already run.
- Native iPhone and Android app — included at this step
- Works offline, with everything kept on the phone — included at this step
- Catches up on its own when it reconnects — not at this step
- Sign-in, so each person has their own account — not at this step
- Their information follows them from phone to phone — not at this step
- Notifications you can send — not at this step
- We build and run the piece that stores it all — not at this step
- Connects to the systems you already run — not at this step
- The privacy rules those systems carry, handled — not at this step
- Compliance
- Formal compliance work — HIPAA and the like — is quoted on top of any tier, and usually adds 20–30% to the total.
Not sure which one you are? That is a normal place to start — describe what you want the app to do in plain words on the call, and we will tell you where it lands and what to expect.
What gets built

Accounts and sign-in
Each person, kept separate
Their information
Stored, and synced phone to phone
Your existing systems
Records, scheduling, billing
Nothing to run. Nothing to breach.
Process
Four laps, every project.
Every engagement runs the same loop, so you always know which stage you're in and what lands next.
01
Frame
Scope, risks, and a plan you can hold us to, with the foundations of the app put in place.
02
Shape
Design and engineering run together rather than in sequence, with working versions landing on your phone as they are ready.
03
Test
Slow connections, no connection, accessibility, and crashes — checked on the twenty phones your customers actually carry.
04
Ship
Store listing, Apple and Google review, a careful rollout, and a handover your own team can run with.
Included in every engagement
- Real iPhone and Android apps, not a website dressed up as an app — and a shared codebase when that genuinely suits you better
- Working versions you can install and try as the build comes together
- The code is yours from day one, in your own account
- Store listing built to convert — screenshots, description, and the certificate and review maze handled
- 30 days of fixes after launch, not on a clock
Let's build your vision together.
Tell us what you're building. If it isn't a fit, we'll say so on the first call and point you somewhere better.
