FAQ

Questions from Boston teams

Ask us something else
How much does it cost to build a mobile app for a Boston business?

It depends on scope far more than on location. The main drivers are how many platforms you need (iOS, Android, web), how many screens and user roles the app has, which systems it connects to, such as an EHR, ERP, CRM or payment provider, whether it handles regulated data like health or card information, and whether it includes AI features. We scope these with you and give you an estimate broken down by feature, so you can choose what goes into the first release.

How long does it take to build a mobile app?

The same things that drive cost drive the timeline: the number of platforms, features and integrations, plus compliance reviews, app store approval and how quickly decisions are made on your side. A focused first release gets a working app to your users sooner, and later features follow in short sprints. You review working builds throughout, not only at the end.

How do I choose an app developer in Boston?

Look at apps they have shipped in your industry and ask to speak with past clients. Ask who will own the code, how they handle the rules that apply to you, such as HIPAA or your state's privacy law, how much of your working day they are available for live calls, and what support looks like after launch. A good developer will also tell you what not to build first.

Do you build to accessibility standards?

Yes. Patient and student apps are built to WCAG accessibility guidelines and tested with assistive technologies.

Can you integrate with our EHR or student system?

Yes, through their standard interfaces such as FHIR for EHRs or the student system's APIs, with access limited to what the app needs.

Can you build HIPAA-compliant apps?

Yes, we build apps designed to meet HIPAA's requirements. We work under a business associate agreement, encrypt patient data in transit and at rest, limit access by role, keep audit logs, and keep protected health information out of analytics, crash reports and AI prompts. Compliance also depends on how your organisation runs the app, so we document the safeguards for your compliance team to review.

What does 201 CMR 17.00 mean for our app?

Massachusetts' data security regulation requires anyone holding residents' personal information to keep a written information security program, control who can access the data, and encrypt it when it travels over public networks or sits on laptops and mobile devices. We build those controls into the app and its backend and document them, so they fit into your written program.

Who owns the code and intellectual property?

You do. The code, designs and documentation we create for your app belong to your company under our contract, the source code lives in a repository you own, and the app is published under your own App Store and Google Play accounts.

What does an app development company do?

An app development company designs, builds, launches and supports websites, web apps and mobile apps. We handle the whole process with one team, from the first workshop to managed deployment and updates.

Do you build native or cross-platform mobile apps?

Both. We recommend native or cross-platform (Flutter or React Native) based on your performance needs, budget and team, and explain the trade-offs before we start.

How much does app development cost?

It depends on the platforms, the number of screens and features, and the systems the app connects to. After a free consultation we send a written estimate of scope, timeline and cost.

Can I hire app developers for my own project?

Yes. You can hire our app developers to build a new product, or to work alongside your team on one you already have.

Why not just build my app with an AI tool?

You can, and for a quick prototype it may be enough. For an app your customers rely on, you need someone who knows how secure it is, can fix it when it breaks, and takes responsibility for keeping it running. That is what we do, using AI to build faster.

We built our app with an AI tool. Can you take it over?

Yes. We review the code, fix security gaps and anything that won't hold up with real users, then take over support and new features.

What happens if something breaks after launch?

We show up and fix it. We monitor what we build and support it after launch, so you have one accountable team to call.

Can you add AI features to an existing app?

Yes. We can add assistants, search, recommendations or automation to apps you already have, without rebuilding them from scratch.

Do you provide support after launch?

Yes. We offer managed deployment, monitoring, maintenance and new features, so your website or app keeps pace with your users and your business.
