How engagements actually run.
Transparency without enterprise bloat. This is the longer form of Discover → Propose → Build → Ship.
01 · DISCOVER
A conversation, not a questionnaire. We map the problem, the constraints, and what done means together.
02 · PROPOSE
You get scope, timeline, and price in writing before anything starts. No open-ended meter running.
03 · BUILD
Short cycles with working software from week one. You review progress as it happens, not at the end.
04 · SHIP
Deployed, documented, handed over. And we stay reachable after launch.
ENGAGEMENT MODELS
Fixed scope
Clear problem boundary, written deliverables, fixed price. Best when the edges are known enough to estimate honestly.
Time & materials
Weekly or bi-weekly cycles with a shared backlog. Best when discovery is still moving or priorities will shift.
Retainer
Reserved capacity for ongoing product work, rescue, or platform ownership. Cadence and response expectations written up front.
We do not publish fake price tables. A real quote follows a real conversation about constraints.
