Questions
Pricing and engagement FAQs.
The questions US and Canadian businesses ask most before engaging us.
What are your working hours?
Our core hours are Monday to Friday, 9 AM to 6 PM Eastern Time, with flexible overlap for clients on Pacific Time. We respond to every message within one business day, and usually the same day. For live products on a support plan, critical issues are prioritized according to the response times agreed in your plan.
How do we communicate during a project?
You have direct access to the engineers building your product, with no layers of account managers in between. Day-to-day communication happens on Slack or email, with scheduled video calls on Zoom or Google Meet for demos and planning. Progress is tracked on a shared project board in Jira, Trello or ClickUp, so you can see status at any time.
Who owns the source code?
You do. All source code, designs, documentation, accounts and intellectual property are transferred to you in full, as set out in our agreement. We set up hosting, app store and third-party accounts in your name from the start, so you are never dependent on us to access or operate your product.
Will you sign an NDA?
Yes. We are happy to sign a mutual non-disclosure agreement before you share any confidential information, and we can work with your template or provide our own. Confidentiality obligations continue after the project ends, and access to your systems and data is limited to the team members working on your project.
What payment methods do you accept?
We invoice in US or Canadian dollars against agreed milestones, so you only pay for work that has been delivered and approved. Payments can be made by bank wire transfer or credit card. For ongoing engagements, such as support retainers or a dedicated developer, we invoice monthly in advance.
What if we are not satisfied with the work?
Work is delivered in small milestones that you review and approve before we move on, so any concerns are raised and resolved early rather than at the end. If a deliverable does not meet the agreed scope, we revise it at no additional cost. Our goal is a long-term partnership, and we only consider a milestone complete when you are satisfied with it.
