Common Questions About Our Services
Understanding the details helps you make informed decisions about which service fits your needs.
Can I combine multiple services?
Yes, services often work together naturally. Many clients start with Concept Validation, move to Rapid Prototyping based on those findings, and then proceed to MVP Development once mechanics are refined. We structure projects to build on previous work when it makes sense.
What if I'm not sure which service I need?
Initial consultations help clarify which approach fits best. We discuss your concept, goals, timeline, and budget to recommend the most appropriate starting point. There's no obligation to commit during these discussions.
Do you offer custom packages?
While our standard services address most needs, we understand some projects have unique requirements. We're open to discussing customized approaches that combine elements from different services or address specific challenges your project faces.
What happens if testing reveals my concept needs significant changes?
Testing sometimes uncovers unexpected challenges or opportunities. We provide clear recommendations about adjustments needed and discuss options for addressing findings. Whether that means refinement through additional iterations or pivot to a different approach depends on what data reveals.
How do payment structures work?
We typically structure payments in phases aligned with project milestones. Initial deposits secure your project slot, with remaining payments tied to delivery stages. Specific payment terms get discussed during project planning to ensure they work for your situation.
