How much does a web application cost?
The honest answer: scope drives the cost. A focused internal tool, for example a project tracking dashboard for a team of ten, costs significantly less than a multi-tenant SaaS product with billing, user management, and a public API. We scope every project before we start and give you a fixed quote. Small applications typically start from a few thousand euros; larger products from tens of thousands. We will give you a specific estimate within one business day of understanding your requirements.
How long does a web application take to build?
A focused application with a clear scope takes four to eight weeks from the start of build to handover. Larger products with multiple user roles, complex integrations, or a phased feature set take longer, typically three to six months for a first version. We give you a realistic timeline before we start, not an optimistic one. The planning step exists specifically to surface complexity early so timelines do not slip mid-project.
Do you build on WordPress or no-code platforms?
No. We build custom web applications in Next.js and TypeScript. For a simple informational website, WordPress or a no-code platform may be the right choice, and we will tell you that honestly if it is. But for anything that handles user accounts, processes data, connects to other systems, or needs to scale, a custom build gives you control, performance, and long-term maintainability that no-code tools cannot match. No-code platforms also introduce a dependency on the platform vendor. If they change pricing, discontinue a feature, or shut down, your application is at risk.
Who owns the code when the project is done?
You do, completely. We hand over the full codebase in a repository you control, along with access to every service, account, and configuration involved in running the application. There is no ongoing licensing fee, no proprietary format, and no dependency on us to keep it running. Another development team can take over from where we left off.
Can you take over a project someone else started?
Usually yes. We review the existing codebase first and give you an honest assessment: what is worth keeping, what needs to be refactored, and what should be rebuilt. We do not inherit problems silently. If the existing code has structural issues that will cause problems later, we tell you before we start, not after. The review itself is free as part of scoping.
Do you provide support after launch?
Yes. We offer ongoing support and development after launch: bug fixes, new features, dependency updates, and performance work. We discuss the terms of ongoing support as part of the initial project scope, so there are no surprises after handover. We are also happy to hand over to an internal team or another agency if that is what you prefer.
