Design your app before you pay to build it
Building an app is expensive, and changing it after it’s built costs even more. We design every screen and turn it into a clickable prototype first, so you can test it with real customers and get firm build quotes.

- Timeline
- 3–6 weeks
What you get
User flows
Every path a customer takes, from opening the app to finishing the task
Up to 15 screen designs
Phone first, with tablet and desktop where they matter. More screens are quoted before we start.
A clickable prototype
Tap through it on your phone and share it with customers
A design system
Colors, type, and reusable parts, so the app looks consistent as it grows
A build-ready handoff
Organized files and notes a developer can quote from, us or anyone else
How it runs
You always know what’s happening and who it’s waiting on. At each checkpoint, the next step starts only after you say it’s right.

Paid discovery sprint
For a build you have in mind but haven’t scoped yet. We map the work with you and write a fixed-price scope.
- The fee is credited toward a build booked within 60 days

A good fit if
- You have an app idea and want to test it before building
- You need designs to get accurate build quotes
Look elsewhere if
- Your app would only show a menu and some links. A fast mobile website does that for less.See custom websites
Questions
Can you build the app too?
Yes. Once the design is done, we quote the build at a fixed price. You can also take the designs to any developer.
Do I own the designs?
Yes, once they’re paid for. You get the source files.
