How much does it save?
It depends on your list. A typical small business pays a few hundred dollars a month for the tools an app replaces, and the app costs S$32 to S$64 a month. That gap is the "up to S$4,000 a year", after a one-off build from S$3,000. Send me your list and I will tell you if it adds up.
How much does a custom app cost in Singapore?
Mine start from S$3,000, quoted in writing and fixed once we agree on what the app does. A developer's quote for a custom app often runs to five figures. After the build, keeping it online costs about S$32 to S$64 a month, paid to those companies directly.
What happens if you are not around any more?
Your app keeps running, because it lives in accounts in your name, not mine. The code sits in your account too, so any developer can pick it up and carry on. You are never stuck waiting for me.
Do I need to be technical?
No. I set up every account in your name and show you where each bill comes from. After that you use the app like any other, on your phone or your laptop.
What will my app cost each month to run?
For a small app, usually S$32 to S$64 a month, paid straight to the companies that keep it online. Services it uses, such as messaging, email or AI, bill you at their own rates. I do not add anything on top.
Can my app replace my accounting, payroll or POS?
Usually not, and I will not pretend otherwise. Your accounting software files your GST, your payroll provider handles CPF, and your POS takes card payments. The tracking around them, like customers, loyalty, staff leave and cash flow, is what an app of your own replaces.
How long does a build take?
Most small apps take 2 to 4 weeks from the day we agree on what the app does. The exact timeline goes in your written quote, next to the price, and the price is fixed once we agree on it.
Can you copy the tool I use now?
The parts you actually use, yes. That is what I did for a café group whose POS provider was closing: I rebuilt the seat map their staff relied on, not the whole system.
What if my app needs changes later?
Send them over and I quote each change, from S$80. That includes fixes when a service your app relies on changes something on its side. Anything that goes wrong because of my build, I fix free.
