Questions
What clients ask before the first call.
How much does a website or platform cost?
Every project is quoted as a fixed price after a short call, because the price depends entirely on what is being built. A brochure site and a multi-tenant SaaS platform are not comparable. You get the number in writing before you commit to anything, and it does not change unless the scope does.
How long does it take?
A landing page can be live in days. A business website typically runs three to six weeks. An online store four to eight. A custom platform or SaaS product starts at around three months for a first version people can pay for. Your written scope will give a date, not a range.
Do I own the code and the accounts?
Yes, completely, and from day one rather than at the end. Hosting, domain, database and payment accounts are created in your name with you as owner. The source code sits in a repository you own. If you leave, you take everything.
What if I already have a site and it needs fixing, not replacing?
That is common and often the better answer. We will look at what you have and tell you honestly whether it is worth repairing or whether you would spend less starting again. Sometimes the honest answer is that it is fine and you do not need us.
Can you take over a project another developer abandoned?
Usually yes. We will need access to whatever exists and an honest picture of its state. We charge for the assessment separately so you are not committing to a rebuild before anyone knows what is there.
Do I have to take a care plan?
No. It is optional and it changes nothing about what you own. Plenty of clients take the 30 days of included bug fixing and manage it themselves or with their own team, and that is a perfectly reasonable choice.
Which payment providers can you integrate?
Stripe, Airwallex, Paymob, PayPal and most regional processors. We architect it so card data never reaches your servers, which keeps you out of the heaviest PCI obligations and is what acquiring banks want to see.
Do you work in Arabic?
Yes, as a first language of the business rather than a translation service. Right-to-left layouts, Arabic typography and mixed-script content are built properly from the start. This site is an example — every page exists in both.
What happens if something breaks after launch?
For 30 days after launch, if something we built is broken, we fix it and you are not billed. After that it is either a care plan or ad-hoc work, whichever suits you.
Do you sign NDAs?
Yes, as a matter of course, and before the first call if you prefer. We do not publish client names or work without written permission.

Tell us what you are trying to build.
A short call is usually enough to give you a clear scope, a timeline and a fixed price. If we are not the right people for it, we will tell you on that call.

Every account we create is registered in your name, and the source code is yours. There is no version of working with us that leaves you dependent on us.
