Connect your CRM, billing, ERP and other systems through their APIs.

Document extraction, an assistant on your data, classification or search.

Week by week sprint schedule

Assumptions

  • Prices use the model rate of $89 per hour of team time.
  • Design, QA and project management are added as separate lines on top of feature hours.
  • Each build sprint is two weeks, with a live build to review at the end.
  • The code lives in a repository you own from the first commit.
  • Third party fees such as hosting, app store accounts and paid APIs are billed to you directly.

Risks

  • Integrations depend on the quality of the other system's API and its documentation.
  • Features added after the scope is accepted move into a later stage at the same rate.
  • A fixed deadline shorter than the model plan adds hours and people to the team.
  • App store review can add a few days to a mobile launch.

Scope accepted

Your scope is saved and our team is reviewing it. The master services agreement, the NDA and the invoice for Discovery and scope arrive by email and in your panel. Nothing is charged until you accept that stage.
