Create value
Invest in features that add value. Don't recreate what already exists, invest in the unique use cases that make the difference.
Work in phases
Starting with an MVP (Minimum Viable Product) or prototype reduces initial costs, tests feasibility, and focuses the budget on the most valuable features for further development.
Long-term ROI
Innovation should create operational efficiency, better user experiences, or new revenue streams. Consider the return on investment and the unique competitive advantage.
More security
Custom innovation avoids vendor lock-in. By owning the source code and the "roadmap" yourself, you gain more security.
Costs of custom software development

Is custom software development an expensive endeavor? When considering innovation, it's essential to be aware of the broad range of costs involved. The first step is to determine and limit the scope. It's crucial to understand the potential for value creation. Only invest in a project with a significant chance of return.
Value creation in custom software
How does custom innovation create value? Custom software innovation is not just about coding and implementing an application. It's a complex process that can bring immense value creation. Companies can offer something that is not yet available on the market. By identifying niche requirements and developing software around them, the potential of customization is utilized.

Budget constraints and large projects

How do budgets vary for different project sizes? When considering innovation, it's important to recognize the typical starting budgets for different project sizes. For relatively smaller projects, budgets typically range between 20K and 100K. As the size and complexity of the project increase, so does the budget. Larger projects may require somewhere between 100K and 300K. A prototype of a solution typically costs 10% to 20% of a budget. This increases the certainty of the success of the innovation.
Overview of situations and scenarios
What challenges can disrupt the software development budget? It's not uncommon for costs to spiral due to unforeseen challenges or changes in scope. That's why it's crucial for stakeholders to establish a solid approach plan, ensuring that the scope of the software remains manageable and contained. This includes thorough scheduling, seeking expert advice, and establishing clear objectives from the beginning.

Role of AI on innovation costs

Is AI technology revolutionizing custom software development? Artificial Intelligence (AI) plays a crucial role in improving our processes. With AI, developers can now utilize boilerplate components, accelerating the coding process. More importantly, AI enables the creation of unique customer experiences, creating more effective and personalized software solutions. Whether it's service delivery, customer interactions, or internal work planning, the influence of AI is undeniable.

Frequently asked questions.
Are you interested in collaboration, but still have some pressing questions? This quick Q&A might provide answers.
What types of platforms and apps do you actually develop?
In summary, we are able to realize virtually any online project. Some examples include:
Web applications, Project management platforms, 3D builders, AI tools, Booking systems, ERPs, Customer and partner portals, Neobank & fintech APPs, Online patient records, Legal tech suites, E-learning platforms, Survey and feedback systems, API integrations and development, E-commerce web applications, CRMs, Portfolio management platforms, Chatbots and service tools, Social network platforms, and more.
Is it always necessary to purchase a full sprint?
No, that doesn't align with our vision of partnership. We work with flexible project or feature roadmaps. As a first step, we conduct an in-depth session. During this meeting, our architect can brainstorm with you and clearly define the project scope. Once all information is lined up, we can adequately estimate the required time and costs.
In which programming languages and technologies are you specialized?
Our team is full-stack, proficient in both backend and frontend development. For backend, we often use PHP/Laravel, .NET, C# or Python. The application data is stored in SQL (MySQL, PostgreSQL) or NoSQL (MongoDB, Elasticsearch, Redis) databases.
On the frontend side, we work with powerful technologies such as JavaScript, Livewire, TailwindCSS, Vue.js, ThreeJS, TypeScript, Nuxt.js, Flutter, React (Native), and Angular. We create UX/UI designs using Adobe XD, Figma, UXPin, or Photoshop.
This is just a sample of our area of expertise. From DevOps to AMQP, we are happy to delve deeper into the technologies that best suit your needs.
I am not satisfied with my current developer(s). What now?
We are happy to help you out of this unpleasant situation. Often, we can take over the SLA (service level agreement) and further development of your project. Critical problems are then addressed in the short term. Subsequently, we ensure smooth collaboration with a professional roadmap and a reliable SLA.
Additionally, we regularly offer second opinions and code audits. This gives you a clear picture of the quality of your application."
