App Development

App development that builds — and staffs — your team.

Ship a fixed-scope MVP with our build team. Then keep building with the same developers, now on your payroll as dedicated remote hires. No re-onboarding tax. No agency lock-in.

For founders in the USA, UK, Australia, Canada and the EU. SaaS, web, mobile.

Two ways to ship

Pick the track that matches where you are.

Pre-product? Track A. Already shipped, need engineers? Track B. Doing both? Most of our founders do.

Track A — Fixed-scope build

Ship an MVP, end-to-end

For solo founders and pre-seed teams. Fixed price, fixed scope, fixed deadline. You own the repo, the domain and the IP from day one.

From $15,000
  • Discovery → spec → build → launch in 8–14 weeks
  • SaaS, web app, or mobile (React Native)
  • Daily progress, weekly demos, no surprise scope creep
  • Code handover with docs & CI on day one
  • Optional fractional CTO continuity post-launch
Track B — Hire your own developer

Dedicated remote developer, fully managed

For scaleups and agencies adding capacity. Senior-vetted, full-time, dedicated. Replacement guarantee. No annual lock-in.

From $1,800/mo
  • Shortlist of 3–5 candidates within 7 days
  • Full-stack, frontend, backend, mobile, QA, UI/UX
  • Monthly billing, cancel with 30 days notice
  • Replacement guarantee if the match misses
  • ~10% of comparable Toptal monthly cost

The same team builds it — and stays on if you want them.

Our build pod scopes, designs and ships your MVP end-to-end. After launch, the engineers who wrote your code can transition onto your payroll as dedicated Daz hires — no knowledge-transfer tax, no second onboarding, no rewrite when the next agency takes over. That continuity is the moat. Most studios can’t offer it.

Track A process

From sketch to shipped in 8–14 weeks.

No 10-month death marches. No “we’ll get you a quote next week.”

01

Discovery (week 1)

One-page spec, wireframes, tech stack picked, milestones agreed. Fixed price locked.

02

Design & build (weeks 2–10)

Weekly demos. Daily Slack. You see the product growing every week — no black box.

03

Launch (weeks 11–12)

Deploy to your infrastructure, your domain, your repo. Docs, CI, monitoring shipped together.

04

Continuity (week 13+)

Keep the build team as dedicated hires through Daz, or hand off clean. Your choice.

Why founders stop trusting agencies — and how we fix each one.

These are real complaints from real founders on Indie Hackers and r/SaaS. We built our model around answering each one.

The pain

“We were quoted 1 month to build the MVP but abandoned the project after 10 months — still not having it ready.”

What we do

Fixed scope, fixed price, fixed deadline. Milestones tied to payments. If we miss a milestone, you don’t pay the next one.

The pain

“If you outsource your early product, you’ll have to rewrite it at some point.”

What we do

The same engineers who shipped your MVP can stay on as dedicated Daz hires. No rewrite — they keep building because they wrote the code.

The pain

“Never outsource the code — if you bring it in-house it’s going to be such a mess.”

What we do

You own the repo and the domain on day one. We push to your GitHub. Conventional commits, tests, CI, docs — written for the engineer who replaces us.

The pain

“Top 3% of talent” with no published rubric, and the dev you get is junior.

What we do

We don’t make “top 3%” claims. You interview the engineer before they start. If they’re not what we said, you don’t pay and we replace.

Track B — roles you can hire

Dedicated engineers, fully managed.

Same talent pool that powers Track A builds. Hire as many as you need, drop as many as you don’t.
