Your last team left the project half done. We'll pick it up.

First an honest code audit: what works, what is risky and what can be saved. Then a fixed price to finish, and working software every week until launch.

## Key facts

- Code audit first: Honest
- Demo of real progress: 1/wk
- Client retention: 98%

## What a stalled project usually looks like

- “Nobody wrote anything down.”: We map the code, servers and accounts, and document how it all fits together.
- “The old team still has the passwords.”: We help you move repositories, cloud accounts and app store access into your own name.
- “Users keep hitting bugs nobody can explain.”: We fix the worst issues first, so your users feel the difference quickly.

## How a takeover works

- Access and audit: Under NDA, we review the code, the hosting and the backlog.
- Honest report: What works, what is risky and what we suggest, in plain words.
- Fixed plan and price: Scope and a fixed price to stabilise the product and finish it.
- Steady delivery: Weekly demos until launch, then support for as long as you need it.

## Systems our team has delivered

## Questions

### Will you just rewrite everything?
No. We keep what works. A rewrite is only suggested when fixing would cost more, and we show you both prices.

### How long does the audit take?
Usually a few working days, depending on the size of the codebase. You get a written report, not just a call.

### How much will it cost to finish?
After the audit you get a written fixed price to stabilise and finish, so you can decide with the full number in front of you.

### Can you work with any tech stack?
We work with most modern stacks: React, Next.js, Node.js, Python, Laravel, Flutter, React Native, iOS and Android. If a stack is outside what we do well, we'll tell you.

### Who owns the code, and how do payments work?
You own 100% of the code, designs, documentation and accounts, and it all lives in your own repository and cloud from the first commit. Fixed-price projects are paid 50% at the start and 50% on delivery.

### What if something goes wrong?
You hear it from us first. We raise risks in the weekly demo, before they turn into delays, and agree any change in writing before it costs you anything. You own the code and accounts, so you are never locked in.

### Can you work with our in-house team?
Yes. We join your Slack, Jira and GitHub, follow your code style and review process, and work in your sprints. Your CTO or tech lead can direct our engineers like their own.

### How do we work across time zones?
Our team is in Ahmedabad, India. We agree fixed overlap hours with your working day for calls, demos and quick questions, and we reply within 4 hours on working days.
