Your journey

From first doubt to a system that runs itself.

Most founders find us the same way. An app idea that's been sitting in notes and sketches, not sure how to turn it into something real. Here's the map: what you do, where it happens, what you're likely thinking, and how we respond.

Awareness

Your app idea hasn't left the notes app

You know what you want built, but not how to turn it into something real without wasting months.

WhereGoogle search, developer marketplaces, founder communities
"I don't want to pay for months of work and get nothing usable."
We show you a real build plan and timeline before you commit to anything.
Consideration

You compare development teams

Freelancers, agencies, no-code builders. You're checking who actually ships finished apps, not just prototypes.

WherePortfolio apps, past client work, reviews
"Will they actually finish this, or disappear halfway through?"
Real apps you can download and test, not just mockups.
Decision

You book the free call

Thirty minutes, no pitch theater. You leave with a clear scope and a real number.

Onboarding

We scope and start building

Features get prioritized into a real roadmap, and development starts on the first milestone.

Growth

Your app keeps shipping updates

New features, bug fixes, and store updates go out on a regular schedule instead of sitting in a backlog.

01. Discovery & scoping

Before a line of code, a plan worth building.

Every DEVLIP app starts with a scoping sprint. Product vision, user flows, platform strategy, and a feature roadmap ranked by impact. We kill scope creep before it costs you a launch date.

  • Product vision & competitive teardown
  • User journeys and feature prioritization
  • Platform & tech-stack recommendation
  • Fixed-scope proposal with milestone dates

02. Native iOS & Android

When performance can't be negotiable.

For camera-heavy, hardware-intensive, or animation-critical products, we build fully native in Swift and Kotlin. Squeezing every frame of performance the platform allows.

  • Swift / SwiftUI for iOS, Kotlin for Android
  • Native device APIs, sensors & permissions
  • Buttery animation and platform-true UX
  • App architecture built for long-term scale

03. Cross-platform

One codebase, two app stores.

Most premium brands don't need two teams. They need one great one. We build in React Native and Flutter to ship iOS and Android in parallel, without visible compromise on either platform.

  • React Native & Flutter engineering
  • Shared business logic, platform-native feel
  • Faster iteration and lower maintenance cost
  • Component libraries built for your brand system

04. Backend & APIs

The engine behind the experience.

An app is only as good as what powers it. We architect backend services, databases, and APIs built to stay fast under real load. With security and auth handled from day one, not bolted on later.

  • REST / GraphQL API design & documentation
  • Cloud infrastructure, CI/CD & auto-scaling
  • Auth, payments, and third-party integrations
  • Monitoring, logging & uptime SLAs

05. Launch & ASO

Ship day, without the panic.

App Store and Google Play submission is its own discipline. Screenshots, metadata, review guidelines, and rejection triage. We handle launch end-to-end and optimize your listing to convert browsers into installs.

  • App Store & Google Play submission management
  • Store listing copy, screenshots & preview video
  • Keyword research & App Store Optimization (ASO)
  • Review guideline compliance & rejection fixes

06. Iteration & scale

Launch is day one, not the finish line.

Real usage data is where the roadmap gets rewritten. We monitor crash rates, funnel drop-off, and retention, then ship the updates that actually move the metrics your business cares about.

  • Crash monitoring, analytics & retention cohorts
  • Feature releases on a predictable sprint cadence
  • Load testing & infrastructure scaling as you grow
  • Ongoing support SLA with a dedicated team

Capabilities

Six disciplines. One app team.

Each engagement is scoped to what your product actually needs. Never a bloated menu of unused services, always a bespoke build for the brand in front of us.

Discovery & scoping

Product vision, user flows, and a ranked feature roadmap before a single sprint is scheduled.

Native iOS & Android

Swift and Kotlin engineering for products where performance and platform feel are non-negotiable.

Cross-platform builds

React Native and Flutter development that ships both stores from a single, maintainable codebase.

Backend & APIs

Cloud infrastructure, databases, and API design engineered to stay fast and secure under real load.

App store launch

Submission management, listing optimization, and review compliance so launch day goes smoothly.

Iteration & scale

Analytics-led releases and infrastructure that scales with you, from first cohort to millions of sessions.

Engagement path

From scoping call to App Store feature.

A clear four-step path. Strategy locked before build, quality gates carried through every sprint, iteration built into the retainer.

Discover

Product, platform, and technical scoping. With a ranked roadmap and fixed-scope proposal.

Architect

UX flows, system architecture, and a sprint plan aligned to your timeline and budget.

Build

Native or cross-platform development, backend integration, and QA shipped in focused sprints.

Launch & scale

Store submission, optimization, and iteration tied to real usage data. Not guesswork.

Proof

How we prove it.

On the strategy call we walk through relevant app builds, architecture docs, and store listings from past engagements, so you can see the standard of work before committing to anything. We also walk through the QA and submission checklist for your specific platform mix, so you know exactly what ships and when.

FAQ

Straight answers for operators.

Should we build native or cross-platform?

Depends on the product. Camera-heavy, hardware-intensive, or animation-critical apps usually warrant native. Most B2C and internal tools ship faster. And cheaper to maintain. Cross-platform. The scoping call decides which path fits your goals and budget.

How long does it take to launch an MVP?

Most MVPs launch in 8 to 14 weeks depending on scope, integrations, and platform count. You get a fixed-scope proposal with milestone dates before any build sprint starts.

Do you handle App Store and Google Play submission?

Yes. End-to-end. Listing copy, screenshots, preview video, keyword research, and review guideline compliance are all included, along with triage if a submission gets rejected.

Can you build the backend and APIs too?

Absolutely. Most engagements include backend architecture, database design, auth, payments, and third-party integrations. So the app and the systems behind it ship as one coherent build.

What happens after launch?

We stay on as your engineering partner. Monitoring crashes and retention, shipping feature releases on a predictable cadence, and scaling infrastructure as usage grows.

How fast can we start?

Most app builds start within a week of the strategy call, once scope and platform choice are confirmed.

Do we own what you build?

Yes. You get full ownership of the source code, repos, and app store accounts. DEVLIP operates them, but nothing is locked to us.

What are the contract terms?

Scope, timeline, and terms are confirmed in writing before kickoff, covering platforms, milestones, and repo access. No surprises, no fine print. Qualifying engagements carry a 90-day results guarantee.

What does this cost?

DEVLIP runs three tiers built for scope, not a fixed price sheet: Launch, Scale, and Portfolio, each custom-quoted to your scope. Most single-platform MVPs start around Launch or Scale, while multi-platform builds with backend and ongoing support usually sit in Scale or Portfolio. See Pricing for the full breakdown, or book a free call for an exact number.

How do we pay you?

Bank transfer, wire, card through Stripe, or PayPal, whichever is easiest for your team.
