What We Build

Our technical core competencies: things we've shipped, not just studied.

Mobile Apps

The app store is brutal. We build apps people keep using after day one.

Web Apps

Enterprise to consumer. Finance to crypto. We build web apps that handle real load and real users.

Bleeding Edge Technologies

ZK, Blockchain, AI, IoT, we've shipped in all of these, not just theorized about them.

BEFORE YOU APPLY

Who our development retainer is not for.

Below the line we'll either route you to the right service or wave you off. Both are wins.

  1. You want hourly billing or weekly timesheets.

    We don't track hours. Two ways we work instead: fixed pricing against a signed scope, or a weekly retainer. Cancel any week, last week refunded if we didn't blow you away. If procurement insists on timesheets, we're structurally the wrong shop.

  2. You don't have a product owner on your side.

    Someone has to decide. "We'll figure it out together" is not a plan, it's a delay. If you need the product thinking too, that's a different engagement.

    Better fit Fractional Co-Founder

  3. You need pure legacy maintenance with no new build.

    We ship new things. If what you actually need is someone to keep a live product safe and stable, our QA partnership covers that. We find what breaks, and we fix it.

    Better fit Software Quality Assurance

  4. Your stack is COBOL, mainframe, SAP customisations, or niche embedded firmware.

    We're heavy on web, mobile, cloud-native, AI, and blockchain. The rest is not our craft.

A clean no costs us a call. A messy yes costs you a quarter. We say no early.

Long-term Partnership

We win when you win. That's the alignment.

THE NO-BULLSHIT GUARANTEE

If we don't blow you away, you don't pay for the week. That's the whole deal.

01.

Cancel any week.

No notice period, no exit fee, no questions.

02.

Refund the last week.

If we didn't blow you away, you don't pay for it.

03.

No hours tracked.

We work to exceed expectations, not to fill timesheets.

WHY THIS WORKS

We don't sell time. We sell outcomes.

Most agencies sell hours. The longer they stay, the more they earn. The incentives are broken.

Our deal is simpler: every week, we have to earn the next one.

If we don't blow you away, you don't pay for that week. No invoices to dispute, no hours to audit, no calls to escalate.

And if your expectations are detached from reality, we walk too. We work with operators, not lottery winners.

That's why this works. We both have skin in the game.
The Wavect Team

Applies to weekly retainers (Fractional Co-Founder, Software QA, and Software Development Retainer). Fixed-price projects deliver against a signed contract; that's a different (and equally honest) mechanism.

FAQs

Everything you need to know about our development process

End any week, with one message. No notice period, no exit interview, no fine print. We invoice weekly, so the most you’re ever committed to is the current week.
Tell us, and we refund that week. No questions, no invoices to dispute, no calls to escalate. The only rule: refunds apply to the most recent week.
Because hours are the wrong metric. If we’re optimizing for hours billed, we’re not optimizing for your outcome. The deal is simpler: every week, we earn the next one. If we don’t, you don’t pay. We’re free to spend zero hours or sixty. What matters is whether you’re blown away.
We work with operators, not lottery winners. If a request would require breaking physics, the law, or a third party’s systems, we say so, and if we can’t align, we walk. The guarantee is mutual: you can fire us any week; we can also fire ourselves.
We use a milestone-driven approach with constant feedback loops. Every 1-2 weeks, you see working software that you can interact with. We start with detailed wireframes and prototypes before writing any code, and you approve each major feature before we build it. Plus, our team includes Product Managers who translate business needs into technical requirements preventing the common disconnect between what you asked for and what gets built.
Requirements always change, that’s reality. We plan for it. Our agile methodology includes change management protocols: we assess the impact of changes on timeline and budget, reprioritize features with you, and adjust sprints accordingly. Small changes (up to 20% of sprint scope) are typically absorbed without additional cost. Larger changes go through a formal change request process with transparent pricing.
This is actually our sweet spot. We start with a Discovery Phase where we conduct stakeholder interviews, analyze your business processes, research your target users, and study competitor solutions. We then create user journey maps, feature prioritization matrices, and technical architecture proposals. You get a clear roadmap before any development starts, usually saving you months of building the wrong thing.
We’re very flexible. We can integrate seamlessly with your existing team as staff augmentation, lead specific modules while your team handles others, provide technical mentorship to junior developers, or take full ownership of the project. We use your existing tools, coding standards, and workflows. Your team won’t feel like we’re outsiders, we become an extension of your development capacity.
We use fixed-scope sprints with clear deliverables and acceptance criteria. Every feature is estimated upfront with buffer time included. Weekly reviews ensure we’re on track before small issues become big problems. For larger projects, we break them into phases with separate budgets, you can stop after any phase if priorities change. All additional work requires written approval with cost estimates. We also offer agile fixed-price engagements: scope locked per sprint, no budget surprises.
All our projects include comprehensive testing and a 30-day warranty period. We perform unit testing, integration testing, and user acceptance testing before delivery. Any bugs found within 30 days are fixed at no charge. We also provide detailed documentation and training so your team can maintain the system. Critical bugs are addressed within 24 hours, non-critical within 5 business days.
Technology selection is based on your specific needs, not our preferences. We consider: your existing infrastructure and team skills, long-term maintenance requirements, performance and scalability needs, budget constraints for hosting and licensing, timeline requirements, and hiring market for future developers. We present options with pros/cons and costs, then decide together. We avoid trendy technologies unless they solve specific problems.
You get complete transparency. We provide: weekly sprint reviews with demos, real-time access to project boards (Jira), progress reports, and direct access to developers. You can see exactly what’s being worked on, by whom, and current status. No black box development, you’re involved as much or as little as you want to be.
