Question 1

What is agentic coding?

Accepted Answer

Agentic coding is software development where an AI agent writes, tests, and iterates on code with a human engineer directing and reviewing the work, rather than the engineer typing every line. Used well, it speeds up the repetitive parts of building software so senior engineers can spend more time on architecture, product decisions, and the details that actually need human judgment.

Question 2

How long does an MVP take?

Accepted Answer

Most MVPs we build take 6 to 12 weeks from kickoff to a working product you can put in front of real users, depending on scope and how much integration with existing systems is required. We'll give you a specific estimate after an initial scoping conversation, since 'MVP' means very different things for a marketplace versus an internal tool.

Question 3

How much does custom software development cost?

Accepted Answer

It depends heavily on scope: an MVP and a larger, integration-heavy product land in very different places. Rather than quote a generic range, we work in transparent, fixed phases, so you'll know the investment for your specific project before we start building.

Question 4

How do I choose a software development agency?

Accepted Answer

Look at who will actually write your code (senior engineers or a rotating junior team), how transparent the process is, whether they've shipped in your industry or region, and how they handle communication once the contract is signed. Ask to speak with the engineers you'd actually be working with, not just a salesperson.

Question 5

Do you work with businesses outside New Zealand?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We work with businesses and startups across Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, and the United States, and build with each market's payment rails, privacy regulations, and technical ecosystem in mind.

Question 6

Agency vs. in-house vs. freelancer: what's the difference?

Accepted Answer

An in-house hire gives you full-time focus but takes months to recruit and is a fixed cost regardless of workload. A freelancer is flexible but rarely covers the full range of skills a product needs end-to-end. A small senior agency sits in between: a full team's worth of skills, engaged only for as long as the project needs it, with the accountability of a company rather than a single contractor.
