Web apps and mobile apps that people use
We build web applications, iOS and Android apps and MVPs, from scratch or as an extension of your existing software. From Frankfurt am Main, for companies across the DACH region, in short cycles and with you as part of the team.
A good idea is not yet a good app
Many app projects don’t fail because of technology, but because of the way there. The feature list grows before the first version is finished. Months go by without a single real user seeing the application. And when it finally goes live, it no longer matches what the company needs by then.
Many companies know the opposite problem from existing applications: a web application has grown over the years, new features get harder and harder to add, and every change feels risky.
Our approach is the same for both cases. Together we decide what the application really needs to do, build in short cycles and review every feature with you before moving on. You see early what is being built and can adjust in time.
What we build
Developed from scratch or extended, for your team, your customers or your partners.
-
Web applications
Applications that run in the browser, without installation, on any device: customer portals, internal tools, dashboards and SaaS products.
-
iOS and Android apps
Apps for iPhone, iPad and Android devices, when your users work on the move or need device features such as the camera or push notifications.
-
MVPs
A first usable version of your product with the core features, to test an idea with real users before investing more.
-
Extensions
New features, optimisation, bug fixes and maintenance for applications you already run, even if we didn’t build them.
Web app or mobile app?
The question comes up at the start of almost every project. A rule of thumb helps with the decision:
- A web application when users mainly work at a desk, the application should be reachable without installation, or many roles with different permissions are involved. Updates are available to everyone at once.
- A mobile app when users are on the move, need device features such as the camera, location or push notifications, or open the app often and quickly.
- Both when, for example, an office team uses a web application and field staff use an app. Then both share the same data and interfaces.
Which option suits you is clarified in the first step. Often it turns out that a well-made web application is enough to start with and an app follows later.
You already have an application that needs further development? Then we start by looking at what exists: how it is built, where it struggles, which changes are most urgent. Then we agree on what gets improved first and continue in the same short cycles as with a new build. That way new features arrive without disrupting day-to-day operations.
Reach the first version faster with an MVP
An MVP, short for “minimum viable product”, is the smallest version of your product that already brings real users a benefit. It isn’t a throwaway prototype, but the foundation that further features build on.
The most important step is the scope. In the “define scope” step we separate core features from optional extensions and record both. That way the first version can go live, while everything that isn’t strictly needed deliberately comes later.
Your first MVP version is ready 72 hours after the scope is agreed. After that we continue in short cycles and review every new feature with you.
This protects against the most common trap in app projects: a scope that grows before the first version is finished. And it gives you early what no concept can replace, namely feedback from real users.
How development works
What you get
- A web application, iOS or Android app or MVP matched to your users and workflows
- An agreed scope, separated into core features and optional extensions
- Regular increments you can try out and review
- Connections to your existing systems through custom APIs where needed
- Joint testing, rollout and go-live
- Maintenance, updates and further development after launch
Frequently asked questions about app development
What is an MVP?
The smallest version of your product that already brings real users a benefit. It contains the agreed core features; optional extensions come later.
Do you also build iOS apps?
Yes. We build apps for iOS and Android, as well as web applications that run in the browser on any device.
How fast is an MVP ready?
The first MVP version is ready 72 hours after the scope is agreed.
Can you develop an existing application further?
Yes. Besides new builds, we take on integrations, new features, optimisation, bug fixes and maintenance for systems you already run.
What does an app or web application cost?
That depends mainly on the scope. After the initial call you receive an estimate of effort and cost. A clearly scoped MVP helps you start with manageable effort.
Do we see what is being built during development?
Yes. We develop in short cycles and review every feature with you before moving on.
Where are you based?
In Frankfurt am Main, in Gallus, a few minutes from the main station and the trade fair. We’re happy to come to you for workshops, or you can visit us.
Have an idea for an app?
Tell us about it in an intro call. Afterwards you’ll know what a first version can look like and what effort to expect.
