How it works
From operational problem to working software.
Understand the problem → Define the right solution → Build it. You work directly with me from initial assessment through discovery, implementation, and launch.
- Understand and define
Assess
We discuss your workflow, challenges, and goals to determine whether custom software is the right solution.
Discover
Through paid discovery, I define the scope, requirements, and milestones, then prepare a proposal for build and maintenance.
- Build and launch
Build
I build the agreed solution with clear milestones, regular progress updates, and controlled scope changes.
Launch
I deploy, test critical workflows, and prepare your team to use the software, with an agreed acceptance period.
- Maintenance and expansion
Maintain
I maintain your software within the agreed subscription scope.
Expand
As your needs change, we can define and price new features or improvements as separate projects.
Working details
Budget & timeline
- Typical starting price
- $5k+
- Typical implementation
- 2–4 weeks
After completed discovery, priced separately. Exact scope and schedule are established during planning.
Project fit
Defined software projects, rather than hourly staff augmentation or open-ended task queues.
Ownership
You receive the source code and lasting rights to use, modify, self-host, and have another developer maintain your application—even after your subscription ends. I retain code ownership. You own your data, and third-party licenses still apply.
What should work better?
You can start with the process as it is today. You don’t need a software specification.
