07 / FAQ
Do you work with non-tech founders & nonprofits?

Yes — most of our clients aren't technical. We translate clearly, avoid jargon, and make sure you understand every decision. Your job is mission and users. Ours is everything technical.

Do you work with existing teams and tech stacks?

Yes — we seamlessly integrate with existing teams and tech stacks. We work within your current systems, choosing what fits your roadmap and budget, not what's convenient for us.

How long does a project take?

We typically deliver a functional MVP in 12 weeks. We work in 2-week sprints, shipping usable code at the end of every cycle so you see progress and provide feedback in real-time.

How do you differ from a freelancer or agency?

We embed like co-founders — fixed monthly subscription, shared KPIs, optional equity alignment, senior leadership on every project. Accountable to your outcomes, not a statement of work.

Do you offer nonprofit or project-based pricing?

Yes. We offer project-based and grant-aligned pricing for nonprofits where monthly subscriptions don't fit. Ask us on the discovery call — we'll find a structure that works.

What if we're not happy with the work?

Full refund on the first month. Beyond that: if we don't deliver a deployable product within 12 weeks, we keep working at no additional cost until we do.
