A working prototype of your idea in two weeks. NZ$5,000, fixed.
What you leave with. Four things, all yours.
- A clickable prototype of the key screens, built with you over two workshops.
- A written scope: what is in, what is out, what it connects to.
- A fixed price and timeline to build it.
- A straight recommendation, including "use a website builder" or "buy this product" when that is the honest answer.
The two weeks. Ten working days, two of them with you in the room.
| When | What happens |
|---|---|
| Day 1 | Workshop one. Who uses it, what it connects to, what happens when it goes wrong. We map the process with the people who do it. |
| Days 2 to 4 | Flows and wireframes of the key screens. You see them as they land, not at the end. |
| Day 5 | Workshop two. We walk the wireframes with you and the people who will use the thing, and change them on the spot. |
| Days 6 to 9 | The clickable prototype, the written scope, and the risks and integrations checked with the systems you already run. |
| Day 10 | Presentation. The prototype, the scope, a fixed price and a timeline, and our recommendation, including "a builder would do" if it is true. |
What a sprint prototype looks like. Sample screens coming soon.
Sample 1
A customer portal: quotes, jobs and documents behind a login. Screens being prepared; ask on the call and we will walk you through a real one.
Sample 2
A field app: a job sheet that works offline on site. Screens being prepared; ask on the call and we will walk you through a real one.
Sample 3
A booking flow: availability, payment and a confirmation. Screens being prepared; ask on the call and we will walk you through a real one.
Who runs it, and what happens next.
John Halvorsen-Jones, Applicable's founder, with one designer or developer from the team that would build it. Thirty years in technology, on every project since 2008. We run 3 sprints a month.
On day ten you have a fixed price. Say yes and the build starts the following week, with the NZ$5,000 credited. Say no, or not yet, and the prototype and scope are yours to take to anyone. Seewhat the build costs and how a project runs.
Common questions
Two weeks with the people who would build your project. Two workshops, a clickable prototype of the key screens, a written scope and a fixed price and timeline to build it. NZ$5,000 plus GST, credited in full against the build if you go ahead. You keep everything either way.
Because a quote from a vague brief is a guess, and guesses blow out. The sprint turns the brief into screens people can click and a scope both sides can read, so the fixed price that follows is one we will hold.
No. A brochure site with a contact form is quoted from a conversation. The sprint is for anything with logins, integrations, bookings or a workflow behind it.
Some things can be, and we say so at the sprint. A portal that talks to your accounting system and is used by your customers cannot be done well in a fortnight, and a promise that it can is a promise about the invoice, not the software. We publish weeks, not days.
