Consulting

Do it right the first time and get to market faster (and cheaper).

I've been architecting and building systems for over thirty years, for startups all the way to the Fortune 50.

Plus, I live in the greater NYC area and am a native English-speaker.

When you work with me you'll get a professional in your corner who:

• Will ask the important questions you haven't thought of yet.  
• Will shoot straight and tell you which features are risky to your budget or timeline.  
• Understands business, stands by their work, and will be there when you need a critical update.

Services 

• Prototyping
• MVP creation  
• Revision or extension to an existing app

How long will it take?

Most projects are completed in 6-8 weeks, while longer projects are typically 3-4 months; “rush” or “emergency” jobs are also possible for additional investment.

Delivery time depends on complexity, whether or not your design is final with creative assets ready to use, and/or if there needs to be coordination with other teams.

How much will it cost?

Minimum project cost is $5,000, while MVPs with two to three screens, REST-ful API access and web database are typically $20,000 to $30,000.

Actual investment depends on how much work needs to be done.  I prefer to work on a fixed-price basis, which also makes your investment predictable, but sometimes bill hourly when the scope is too vague or there’s substantial risk such as new or unfamiliar technologies.  

Where are you located?

I live a few miles outside of NYC and make it into town regularly.  If you're local I'm happy to conduct some meetings and hand-offs face-to-face.

Will you take my programming test?

No.  I'm a seasoned professional and it's just not worth my time.  Plus, most contracts allow for easy termination and I always offer a full 100% no-risk 14-day guarantee.
