Common questions.
FAQ / BEFORE THE BRIEF
How long does an MVP take?
It depends on the scope and integrations. We define milestones before development begins.
Do I need a technical brief?
No. Start with the user, problem, and result you want.
Can you continue an existing product?
Yes. We can assess, simplify, continue, or selectively rebuild it.
What happens after launch?
Take the code and handoff materials, or continue with ArwenDigital.
Can you add AI?
Yes—when it improves the product. We will recommend a simpler approach when it is more reliable.
Who owns the code?
Ownership, licensing, and handoff terms are agreed before development.
