FAQs

Frequently asked questions.

How long does a typical web project take?
A marketing site lands in four to eight weeks. A custom web app or SaaS product runs three to six months for an MVP, then iterates from there. Mobile apps trend longer — expect four to nine months for an App Store release. Every quote includes a week-by-week breakdown so the timeline is never a mystery.
Do you take on fixed-price or time-and-materials projects?
Both. Fixed-price works when scope is well-defined; time-and-materials works for ongoing iteration or research-heavy phases. We'll tell you which fits your project — and why — in the proposal. Mixing the two across phases is also common.
Where are you based, and how do time zones work?
Headquartered in Ahmedabad with project teams supporting clients across the UK and US. Time-zone overlap is built into how we plan: morning standups for Asia-Pacific clients, late-afternoon for UK, and dedicated US-overlap windows when projects need them.
Will I work with the same team for the whole project?
Yes. The lead engineer, designer, and project manager assigned at kickoff stay through to launch. We don't rotate people off projects mid-stream unless you ask us to. Stability of the team is one of the reasons projects finish on time.
Who owns the code and design files at the end?
You do, fully. Code in your Git repository, design files in your Figma workspace, deployment in your cloud account. We don't hold infrastructure hostage. If our relationship ends, you keep everything — that's how it should be.
Do you sign NDAs?
Routinely. Send us your standard NDA before the discovery call and we'll sign it the same day. We have a mutual NDA template available if you don't have one.
Can you work with our existing development team?
Often. We've embedded designers into engineering-only teams, taken over backend work for design-led teams, and acted as a senior pair to founder-developers. We'll be honest if the collaboration shape doesn't make sense — that conversation happens before the contract.
What happens after launch?
Most clients move into a small monthly retainer covering updates, security patches, hosting oversight, and minor feature work. Larger feature sprints get scoped separately. Either way, we don't disappear after deploy.
How do you handle disagreements during a project?
Direct, written, early. If we think a design or technical decision is wrong, you'll hear it in writing within twenty-four hours of seeing it — not after the build is done. We push back when it helps the project, agree when you've already thought it through.
