Frequently
Asked Questions
How much does it cost?
Entirely depends on your needs.
You want to create a unique product and verify if the idea is feasible.
Then it should be a proof of concept. With PoC you will prove technical possibilities to develop such a product and reduce the risks of tech problems.
Budget: $10k+
Budget: $10k+
You want to showcase your idea and have a tight deadline.
Then it will be a prototype. With it, you can demonstrate business concepts to stakeholders, investors, and focus groups.
Budget: $20k+
Budget: $20k+
You want to rapidly monetize your idea.
Then it’s a minimum viable product. With MVP you can validate the idea, and find investors and early adopters.

How much time will it take?
Completely depends on your needs. Do you want to develop a product from scratch, or upgrade it? What complexity does your project have? Do you already have designs?
General estimation is:
-days/weeks for a PoC (proof of concept);
-weeks for a Prototype;
-months for an MVP (minimum viable product).

What are the legal aspects? What about intellectual property rights? Is there a nondisclosure agreement?
We will sign an NDA before starting every cooperation and limit access to your sensitive information. We build software according to ISO27001 standards. All the intellectual property rights belong to you.
Who will be responsible for the quality of the work?
We have a multi-factor check of the quality of work. First, Quality Assurance runs necessary tests in a test environment. The tech lead then controls the code in pull requests. And finally, the project manager during the sprint review makes sure that the result is fully consistent with the original task.
What is the difference between a Middle and a Senior developer?
A Middle developer needs guidance and control. He should not make architectural decisions. Usually, he has 2+ years of experience, can build SPAs, and has a single specification (frontend or backend). A Middle developer costs 45 USD/hour.
A Senior developer is responsible for architectural decisions, code review, and features. Usually, he has 4+ years of experience, can build SPAs, eCommerce, and SaaS, and has multiple specifications (full-stack, DevOps). A Senior developer costs 55 USD/hour.
What does a development process look like?
In a nutshell, a development process looks like this:
1. Transfer your requirements into the features backlog, prioritize, and plan a sprint.
2. Create designs and prototypes.
3. Start coding.
4. Cover it with tests.
5. Deploy.
6. Maintain.

How often will we communicate?
We cooperate openly during the project:
Daily standups - to have an update on development status. A team has it daily, it’s up to you, how often you want to participate.
Sprint review - to demonstrate sprint results. Once per sprint (weekly or bi-weekly basis).
Communication with you is necessary to understand every detail of the project and to maintain a long-term and mutually beneficial relationship.
