Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about working with Byte & Builders — from engineering process and pricing models to code ownership and timelines.
Services
What services does Byte & Builders provide?
Byte & Builders provides a full range of software and technology services including web application development, mobile app development, UI/UX engineering, backend and API development, cloud infrastructure and DevOps, AI integration, custom software development, and ongoing maintenance and support.
What technologies do you use?
We primarily work with React, Next.js, TypeScript, Node.js, Python, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, AWS, Docker, and Kubernetes. We choose technologies based on what's best for your project — we're not dogmatic about a single stack.
Clients
Do you work with startups?
Absolutely. We have significant experience working with early-stage startups — from pre-seed MVPs to Series A product scaling. We understand startup constraints around speed, budget, and flexibility.
Can you work alongside our existing development team?
Yes. We regularly embed with existing engineering teams to provide additional capacity, specialist skills, or technical leadership. We adapt to your workflow, tools, and communication preferences.
Do you work with international clients?
Yes. We work with clients across the UK, US, Europe, the Middle East, and Southeast Asia. We're experienced with asynchronous collaboration across time zones and can structure our availability to overlap with your team.
Process
How does your development process work?
We follow an agile, iterative process: discovery and requirements, architecture planning, design, development sprints, testing, and launch. We provide regular updates, weekly check-ins, and access to a shared project dashboard throughout.
How long does a project take?
It depends on the scope. A focused MVP typically takes 6–12 weeks. A full-featured product can take 3–6 months. We'll give you a realistic timeline estimate after an initial discovery conversation.
What does the engagement look like after launch?
We offer flexible maintenance and support packages. Many clients choose to keep us on for ongoing feature development, bug fixes, performance monitoring, and infrastructure management after the initial launch.
Getting Started
How do I start a project with Byte & Builders?
The easiest way is to fill in our contact form or send us an email with a brief description of your project. We'll schedule a free discovery call to understand your needs, and follow up with a scoped proposal.
Do you sign NDAs?
Yes, absolutely. We sign NDAs before any confidential business or technical information is shared. Client confidentiality is something we take seriously.
Pricing
What is your pricing model?
We work on both fixed-price project engagements and time-and-materials retainer models, depending on the nature of the work. We'll recommend the most suitable model based on your project requirements during our initial conversation.
Legal
Who owns the code and IP after the project?
You do. Upon final payment, full intellectual property rights to all custom-developed code transfer to you. We'll provide a clean, well-documented codebase with everything you need to maintain or continue development independently.
