Before you start
A few things
you may be wondering.
What if my idea is still rough?
That’s enough to begin. Tell Tom who it’s for, what you want it to do, and what isn’t working today. You don’t need a technical brief.
What happens after I submit?
Tom reviews your inquiry and follows up to discuss fit, possibilities, and a sensible first version. If it makes sense to continue, you receive a written scope and proposal before development.
What will the project cost?
Starting prices are shown below. The proposal sets the final price, deliverables, milestones, exclusions, third-party costs, and support. There’s no payment or commitment when you inquire.
Do you only work with Delmarva businesses?
The studio is based on Delmarva and works with people elsewhere too. You work directly with Tom throughout the project.
Can you work with tools I already use?
Often, yes. We start by understanding the systems, access, and constraints you have. An integration or a small tool may be the right first build.
You’ve been thinking about it.
Let’s find out what it could become.
Your first step is a conversation with the person who will build it.
