The eight steps of every project
- 01
Free 30-minute call
You talk to Nihar Ranjan Rout about the product, users, timeline and budget. No sales team in between.
- 02
NDA and discovery
We sign an NDA before discovery, then go through your idea, existing systems and constraints in detail.
- 03
Written proposal within 24 hours
Scope, priorities, team, milestones and costs in writing, so you can compare us fairly.
- 04
PRD and prototype
A product requirements document fixes what will be built. Where it helps, a clickable prototype lets users try the flows first.
- 05
First working version in about 4 weeks
We build the most important flow first and put working software in your hands early.
- 06
Milestones with demos
Each milestone ends with a demo you can test, and payment is tied to agreed deliverables.
- 07
Launch
Store submissions, production setup, monitoring and handover notes, with code and accounts in your name.
- 08
60-day warranty, then ongoing support
Fixes are covered for 60 days after launch. After that we agree a plan for maintenance and new features.
How we communicate
A daily overlap window
A fixed time each working day for calls and quick decisions, planned around your time zone.
Written updates
What was done, what is next and what is blocked, so nothing depends on memory or a missed call.
Decisions in writing
Scope changes and decisions are recorded, so everyone works from the same version.
Your tools or ours
We work in your Slack, Teams, Jira or GitHub, or set up a simple workspace for you.
Ownership, IP and security
Code and accounts in your name
Repositories, cloud, app store and third-party accounts are created in your name from day one.
IP passes to you
Ownership of custom work passes to you as each milestone is paid for.
NDA before discovery
You can share ideas, data and plans openly from the first detailed conversation.
Documentation
Setup notes and decisions are written down, so your team or any future team can maintain the product.
Quality practices on every project
Code review on every change
A second engineer reviews code before it is merged.
Testing before each release
Key flows tested on real devices and browsers, with automated checks where they pay off.
Security basics built in
Access control, encrypted connections and secrets kept out of code from the first sprint.
Staged releases
Changes go to a staging environment for your review before they reach users.
Documentation
Setup notes and decisions written down, so your team or any future team can maintain the product.
Support after launch
A 60-day warranty after launch, then an agreed plan for maintenance and new work.

Questions about our process
How long does it take to start?
After the first call you receive a written proposal within 24 hours. Once it is agreed, discovery and the PRD come first, and the first working version usually follows in about 4 weeks.
What is a PRD and why do you write one?
A product requirements document describes what will be built, for whom and in what order. It keeps scope, cost and timeline clear for both sides before code is written.
How do we pay?
Payment is tied to milestones agreed in the proposal. Each milestone ends with working software you can review.
What if requirements change during the project?
Changes are discussed, estimated and agreed in writing before they are built, so you always know the effect on cost and timeline.
Do we own everything you build?
Yes. Code and accounts are in your name from day one, and ownership of custom work passes to you as milestones are paid.
