My Big Joke Book
Stand-up comedians write, rate and time their material, then run the set from their phone on stage.
iOS, Expo, Laravel API
We design and build websites and software for small businesses, fix the ones that have stopped working, and run the project so you are not the one chasing it. One point of contact from the first conversation to the thing working.
What we do
Every project is quoted as one fixed number, agreed before any work starts.
Fire protection companies run their whole day from it — the route, the NFPA 25 forms, the deficiencies found, the repair invoice, and the report filed with the fire marshal.

from kickoff to submission
1
person you deal with, start to finish
Signed, submitted to the App Store and Google Play, and running on real devices. Not a clickable mockup you still have to get built.
The repository, the developer accounts and the keys are yours from the first commit. You can hand it to anyone afterwards, including someone else entirely.
The person who scopes it stays with it. Nothing is handed to a junior, offshored, or lost between an account manager and a developer.
You get one price, agreed before work starts. It does not move because the work took longer than we thought. That risk is ours, and pricing it honestly is the job.
We run the project. You are not the one holding the schedule together, following up on a photographer, or finding out in week six that two things were never going to fit together.
Week 0
A week deciding exactly what this is. You get the scope, the screens and the number. If you walk away, you keep the document.
Week 1
Screens, navigation and data. You are opening it on your own phone by the end of the week, not looking at pictures of it.
Week 2
Accounts, payments, notifications, whatever yours needs. This is the week the app becomes the thing you described.
Week 3
Store listing, screenshots, review submission, and the handover of every account and key.

iOS, Expo, Laravel API
Screenwriters draft in proper screenplay format on a phone, with the page breaks landing where they should.
iOS, web, Laravel
One fixed number, worked out in the scoping week and agreed before any work starts. It depends entirely on what you are building, which is why there is no price list here: a number on a page nobody has discussed with you is a guess dressed up as a quote.
Because you are paying for the company as well as the work: a sales team, a floor of developers, and the layers between them. We are small, we use AI tooling heavily, and we work in a stack we have shipped with before. The engineering is the same; the overhead is not.
Websites and software need upkeep whether you plan for it or not: hosting, updates, store policy changes, expiring certificates. We offer that as a monthly arrangement, and you can stop any time.
Anything where the hard part is scale rather than software. If you need a video streaming platform or something with a real machine learning problem in it, we will say so rather than take the money.
Fifteen minutes on a call is usually enough to say whether it is a job we should take, how long it takes and what it costs. If it is not a fit, we will tell you that too.
