What each phase removes from your plate — from first email to a live app you don’t have to think about.
1. Discovery
You tell us what you’re trying to build. We ask the questions that pin down what your application needs to do, who uses it, and what it has to connect to. By the end you have a written scope and a fixed price.
If your project isn’t a good fit for the way we work, we’ll tell you in this conversation. No retainer to walk away. We’d rather lose a deal than waste your time on a build that ends badly.
2. Build — $7,499 setup
We design the application, build it, and ship it to production. You see progress weekly — working software, not slide decks. Three to six weeks, depending on scope.
When we’re done, your app is live and ready for your team.
3. Active Development — $999/mo
Once shipped, we keep going. Five hours of new development included every month, and unused hours roll forward up to a 10-hour bank.
You queue work in whatever way suits you — email, a shared tracker, a monthly call. We pull from it. No project management lands on you.
4. Maintenance — $299/mo
When your app is stable and your backlog is empty, downgrade. Your app stays live and looked after. Move back up the moment something new comes along — no re-setup, no penalty.
The goal across all four phases is the same: every hour you spend on dbb1.dev is an hour you’d otherwise be spending on this yourself.
