Your product, idea to launch
You have an idea for software, an app or a platform. We sharpen the scope first, test the concept with a prototype and then bring a first version to real users – and keep developing it with their feedback.

Three decisions before the first line of code
Before development starts, three questions should be settled: what the software must do, what goes into the first version and which platform it runs on. That avoids detours and makes costs easier to plan.
Pin down requirements
A requirements specification describes what your product must do and how acceptance is measured. It is the basis for a binding quote.
- Who uses the product and what for?
- How do you know a feature is done?
Start small
A first version (MVP) contains only the features that solve your users' core problem. You get real feedback early, before you invest in the full scope.
- Which feature must work on day one?
- What can wait for the second version?
Choose the platform
Web app, SaaS or mobile app: the choice depends on where your users work and how you want to offer the product.
- Do your customers use the product at a desk or on the go?
- Do you sell it as a subscription or use it yourself?
How we approach it
Clarify first, then build – in short stages instead of one big launch.
Concept
Define the target group, core features and the scope of the first version – captured in the requirements specification.
Prototype
A clickable prototype shows early whether flow and usability work, before development starts.
First version
Build, test, go live – then expand it with feedback from real users.
Where are you stuck?
One click starts the Digital Stack Builder with your focus. Four questions, your plan, free of charge.
The right services
- Concept & designTarget group, user flow and UX/UI design up to a clickable prototype that reveals risks before development.
- Requirements specificationRequirements described clearly and completely, with measurable acceptance criteria – the basis for quote, development and acceptance.
- Web applicationsBrowser-based applications, complex in logic and simple to use: from internal tools and customer portals to platforms.
- SaaS developmentSaaS platforms with multi-tenancy, billing and onboarding – from architecture to your first paying customer.
- React Native app developmentApps for iOS and Android from one shared codebase, from architecture to store release.

Your question isn't here? Ask us directly
What does it cost to have a new digital product developed?
It depends mainly on the scope of the first version, the platform and the interfaces you need. After a few questions, the free Project Calculator shows a first range for cost and duration and the biggest effort drivers. The figures are a guide, not a quote, and are net of VAT.
What is an MVP?
MVP stands for minimum viable product: the smallest version of your product that solves your users' core problem. It goes live early so you can decide with real feedback which features come next, instead of planning everything up front.
Web app, SaaS or mobile app – which fits?
A web app runs in the browser on any device and suits workflows at a desk. SaaS is a web app you offer to many customers as a subscription, with multi-tenancy and billing. A mobile app suits products your users mainly use on the go on their smartphone. We build mobile apps with React Native for iOS and Android from one codebase.
Do I need a requirements specification?
It is the basis for a binding quote. A requirements specification records what your product must do and how acceptance is measured. If you do not have one yet, we work it out together in a workshop. To get started, you can use our free requirements template.
What happens after the launch?
After the launch, usage shows what matters next. We review the feedback with you, plan the next features and, if you want, take care of maintenance and updates.
Let's talk about your product idea
30 minutes, no obligation: we look at your idea, your target group and your constraints and outline what a first version could look like.
