Frequently Asked Questions

Most Custom Software Development engagements take 10-20 weeks depending on scope, depending on scope and how clear the requirements are upfront. We'll give you a firm timeline estimate after a short discovery call, not a generic range.

Custom Software Development projects with us typically range from $30,000 - $200,000, scaled to the complexity of your requirements. We provide a detailed, itemized estimate before any work begins so there are no surprises mid-project.

For custom software development, we typically work with Node.js, Python, React, PostgreSQL, chosen based on your specific scalability and integration requirements. We're not tied to a single stack and will recommend the right tools for your situation rather than our default.

A typical custom software development engagement includes requirements discovery and process mapping, along with the other deliverables outlined in our proposal, such as documentation and a post-launch support window. The exact scope is tailored to your project during discovery.

Most clients come to us for custom software development because of off-the-shelf software forcing process compromises, among other related challenges. We start every engagement by mapping your specific pain points before writing a single line of code.

We've delivered multiple aerospace & defense projects addressing challenges like stringent security and clearance requirements. We supported an aerospace supplier in modernizing its parts traceability system while maintaining ITAR compliance.

For aerospace & defense clients, we pay close attention to ITAR (US), DO-178C software certification, building these requirements into the architecture from day one rather than retrofitting them later. We'll confirm which specific regulations apply to your business during discovery.

The most common challenges we solve for aerospace & defense clients include stringent security and clearance requirements and long procurement and certification cycles. We tailor our discovery process to surface the specific version of these problems your business faces.
