Start a Software Engineering Project
Tell us what you are building and what is in your way
A few lines is enough to start — what you are building, what is in the way, and roughly when you need it. If you already have a specification, a repository, or designs, say so; if all you have is the problem, that is a normal place to begin, and the Discovery Sprint exists for exactly that.
Send it with the form below, or use the email under Contact Information if you would rather talk first. Every route reaches the same team, and we answer every enquiry.
A recommendation, not a pitch
We reply with suggested next steps and a way to work together, usually within one business day.
Thirty minutes, no obligation
The first conversation is about your problem. If we are not the right team, we say so and tell you what to look for.
Agreed in writing first
Scope is confirmed in writing before any work starts, and you own everything we build for you.
Contact Information
We typically reply within 1 business day.
Before You Write
What we do, how a project gets scoped and billed, how soon we can start, and what happens after you send this
What does Develune do?
Develune is a full-stack software development company. We take products the whole way — discovery and design, front-end and back-end engineering, mobile, cloud and DevOps, data, AI features, and the automated testing that keeps releases safe. Clients come to us when they want one team accountable for the outcome rather than a build handed between specialists.
What services does Develune offer?
Nine services: custom software development, web and frontend engineering, backend and API engineering, QA and test automation, AI and automation engineering, product strategy and UX/UI design, mobile app development, cloud, DevOps and infrastructure, and data engineering and analytics. We also run maintenance and support retainers, including rescue work on codebases we did not originally build.
How do you work out what a project involves?
It depends entirely on your requirements, and we would rather tell you that honestly than publish something that fits nobody. A small integration and a multi-team platform are not the same job. So we start by understanding what you actually need, then agree everything in writing before any work starts. Send us a short brief and we will come back with a recommended way to work together, usually within one business day, with no obligation.
How does Develune bill — hourly or per project?
We do not bill by the hour. Discovery is a fixed fee, builds are billed against agreed milestones, and ongoing work is a monthly retainer for a defined capacity. Anything outside the agreed scope is discussed and approved before work starts, so nothing appears on an invoice that you have not already agreed to.
Can Develune take over a project someone else started?
Yes, and it is a regular part of our work. We start with a codebase audit covering architecture, dependency risk, security exposure, and test coverage, then give you an honest assessment of what is salvageable and what is not. We modernize incrementally wherever possible and only recommend a rewrite when we can show the reasoning.
How quickly can Develune start?
A Discovery Sprint can usually begin within one to two weeks of an agreed scope. Larger builds and dedicated-team engagements depend on current capacity, which we will tell you honestly on the first call rather than promising a date we cannot hold.
How do we get started with Develune?
Send a short note through the contact page describing what you are building and what is in your way. We will reply with suggested next steps and a recommended way to work together — usually within one business day. The first conversation is 30 minutes and there is no pitch attached to it.
How can I contact Develune?
Two ways, both reaching the same team: the contact form on this site, or email at hello@develune.com. Either suits a first brief best, because you can attach a specification, a repository link or a design file. We reply to every enquiry, usually within one business day.
