Questions, answered.
Why do you charge for discovery?
A fixed price is only honest once the requirements are clear. Discovery gives you a written scope, a delivery plan and a fixed quote for phase one, which you keep even if you go elsewhere.
Can you build a mobile app?
Yes, Android and iPhone apps are part of this service. Many projects start as a web app that works on any phone, which is faster and cheaper to change.
Who owns the code?
You own everything made specifically for you once paid in full. We keep our own reusable methods and tools.
What does it cost to run?
Hosting and any third-party software or API fees are listed in the quote. Ongoing support is available through Automation Care.
