How much does custom software cost?

It depends on the scope and difficulty of the brief. You can find indicative ranges and the principle we use to set the price on the pricing page. The exact number comes after a short diagnostics.

How long does custom software development take?

A small tool is usually ready in a few weeks, a web application in 6 to 10 weeks, a large system in several months. The exact timeline is set after diagnostics, once the scope is clear.

Do you work only in Bratislava or remotely too?

We're based in Bratislava, but work with clients from all over Slovakia, Czech Republic, and Europe. Communication is online, in-person meetings as needed.

What does the diagnostics phase include?

Diagnostics is a paid initial phase where we understand your problem, design a solution, and prepare a technical specification with a fixed price. If you decide to proceed, the diagnostics cost is credited toward the project.

Do you maintain software after delivery?

Yes. After delivery we offer four partnership levels, from hosting and monitoring through active maintenance to ongoing development with dedicated capacity. Whoever built the first version understands the fifth.

When is custom software worth it over an off-the-shelf product?

Custom software is worth it when your way of working is a competitive advantage you don't want to bend to someone else's software, or when no suitable off-the-shelf tool exists for what you need. A third common reason is replacing an old system that is fragile, expensive to maintain, or unsupported. If your processes match how an off-the-shelf product works — ordinary accounting, for instance — we'll recommend that instead. The solution should fit the problem.

What custom software is

Custom software is a program built specifically for your company and your process — not an off-the-shelf product that you adapt yourself to. Custom development is most often worth it in three situations: when your way of working is a competitive advantage you don't want to bend to someone else's software; when no suitable off-the-shelf tool exists for what you need; or when an old system has to be replaced because it is fragile, expensive to maintain, or unsupported.

"Custom" doesn't mean expensive or slow. It only means the solution fits the problem. Sometimes that's a small internal tool delivered in a few days, sometimes a web application in a few weeks, or an information system in a few months. The problem sets the scope, not the other way round. That's why every project starts with diagnostics: we understand your process and constraints, design a solution, and give a fixed price. If you decide not to proceed, the diagnostics deliverables are yours.

We work with proven technologies (TypeScript, React, Next.js, PostgreSQL) and hand over all the code as your property, including documentation and access. No vendor lock-in: your own team or another supplier can take the software over. If you want, we keep looking after it too, from hosting to ongoing development. But that's your choice, not a condition.

How it all works

Working with us isn't a one-off transaction but a steady arc. First we get clear on what's actually needed. Then we build it. And once the system is running, we look after it and keep it growing. That usually surfaces the next thing worth assessing. So the circle closes.

First step

Diagnostics & Audit

Before we build anything, we get clear on what's actually needed. When you know the problem and it just needs defining precisely, that's diagnostics. When you want an independent look at what you already have, that's an audit. Both are paid, low-commitment, and fast.

Diagnostics

We clarify scope and prepare a specification with a fixed project price.

Audit

An independent review of what you have: technical, security, performance, SEO, accessibility.

Digital strategy

Which tools to deploy, what to automate, where to start. A roadmap instead of chaos.

Development strategy

Technology selection and system architecture. Independent technical advisory.

Clarity from chaos

Audit of existing systems, process documentation, architecture simplification.

Build

Software & Web

Once it's clear what's needed, we build it. Custom software from a small tool to a platform the whole company runs on. Or a website that represents the company and brings in enquiries. Fixed price, regular demos, the finished code is yours.

Custom software

Internal tools, web applications, and information systems. Priced by what's at stake.

Websites

Fast, professionally deployed sites. Landing, business, and complex websites.

MCP integrations for AI agents

Custom MCP servers. Connecting internal systems and data to AI agents.

Custom CLI tools

Terminal tools for automation and internal processes. TypeScript, Go, Bash.

Small tools & automations

Internal apps, dashboards, and scripts. Delivered in days, not months.

Ongoing

Partnership

Delivery isn't the end. Once a system is running, someone should look after it and keep it moving. Whoever built the first version understands the fifth. And each next step usually surfaces the next thing worth assessing.

Ongoing partnership

Four partnership levels, from hosting to active development. Pricing on the pricing page.

Server configuration & management

Provisioning, Linux administration, Docker, CI/CD, monitoring, backups.

DNS & domain infrastructure

Domain and DNS management, DNSSEC, domain migrations.

Email infrastructure

SPF, DKIM, and DMARC configuration, deliverability, transactional emails.
