You do. The source code and the rights to software developed specifically for you pass to you as the client.
Both: clearly defined projects at a fixed price, open or agile projects on a time-and-materials basis. Our day rate is €720–960 (plus VAT), depending on the task.
Mainly Java, .NET, TypeScript and Python; React, Angular or Vue.js in the frontend; Flutter, Xamarin and native iOS for mobile. We choose the technology to fit your needs and existing landscape.
That depends on the scope of the project. We start with a short discovery workshop in which we cut the scope down to the essentials. On that basis you receive a concrete quote – time and materials or fixed price.
Yes. We analyse the existing code, make it maintainable and develop it further – or plan a step-by-step replacement.
We can, if you like. Your own team can take over just as well: we document clearly and hand over in a structured way.
Yes. Development is mostly remote across DACH; for workshops and key meetings we are happy to come by in the Stuttgart region.
