Custom Software and App Development
When the software you bought makes you work around it, the software is wrong. We build business applications and iPhone and Android apps shaped to how your business already works.
Web Applications
Most businesses end up with three tools that almost fit and a spreadsheet holding them together. We replace that with one application built for how you operate, connected to the systems you're keeping.
- Client and team portals, dashboards and project tools
- Payments, banking and other services connected through their APIs
- Online stores with a custom cart and checkout
iPhone and Android Apps
Apps for your customers and tools for your crew in the field. Native iOS and Android, or one cross-platform build for both stores when building once makes more sense.
- Screens designed to Apple's and Google's guidelines and reviewed with you first
- Push notifications and connections to your website, booking or ordering
- App Store and Play Store submission handled, listing included
- Tested on real iPhones and Android phones before release
What We've Built
A sample of past projects. Steve Wilson builds every one himself.
- Business applications, including project and task tools along the lines of Asana
- Finance apps connected to Stripe and Plaid
- Custom shopping carts and checkout
- Service apps and iPhone and Android apps
- MLB and NCAA basketball prediction apps that pull from many data sources
- Network monitors, an uptime monitor and website analysis tools
How a Project Goes
-
1. Scope
We map who uses it and what it has to do, and write the features down. The price is set before any code is written.
-
2. Design
You see the screens and click through the main steps before the build starts.
-
3. Build and test
The software is built and tested on the devices your people actually use.
-
4. Launch
It goes live on our hosting or yours, with a walkthrough for your team.
What It Costs
Every project starts with a written scope, so the price is fixed before the work begins.
Web Application
Most land around $8,000 and take 8 to 16 weeks.
- A written feature spec that sets the scope and the price
- Clickable wireframes and full screen designs
- User accounts with up to 4 roles, each with its own permissions
- An admin dashboard for your users, content and data
- Up to 2 connections to systems like payments, email or your CRM
- Clean, documented code that belongs to you
Hosting, maintenance and new features after launch are a separate monthly plan.

How much does custom software cost?
A web application usually runs $3,000 to $20,000 and a mobile app $3,000 to $30,000. The scope is written down first, so you know the price before any code is written.
How long does it take?
Most web applications take 8 to 16 weeks and most mobile apps 10 to 16 weeks, including App Store and Play Store review.
Can it connect to the tools I already use?
Usually, yes. Past projects connect to Stripe, Plaid and many other services. A web application includes up to two connections, and more raise the price.
Do I own what you build?
Yes. You get clean, documented code that belongs to you.
What happens after launch?
Mobile apps include 30 days of fixes after launch. Hosting, maintenance and new features after that are a separate monthly plan.
