13 — Frequently asked

Answers before
you ask.

The questions we hear in nearly every discovery call. If yours isn't here, send it through the form — we'll answer in writing.

Ask a different question →
How long does a typical engagement take?+
A fixed-scope sprint runs 2–8 weeks. A full platform build runs 3–9 months depending on integrations, data complexity, and AI surfaces. Discovery itself is 1–2 weeks and produces a written scope before any build commits.
Who owns the code we build together?+
You do — fully and from day one. Source is delivered in your repos under your accounts. We retain no licenses, no usage rights, and no kill switches. NDAs and IP assignments are signed before the first commit.
Do you sign NDAs and offer privacy guarantees?+
Yes — mutual NDAs are standard. We work under privacy-aware practices: no real PII in dev environments, no production credentials in screenshots, and audit-ready access controls on every system we ship.
What stack do you work in? Are we locked into your choices?+
We pick tools per workload — Django/Laravel for backend depth, Vue/Nuxt/Next for frontend, Postgres/MySQL/Redis for data, Docker/Nginx for infra, OpenAI/Anthropic for AI. If your team already operates a stack, we adapt. We don't lock you into anything proprietary.
What happens after launch — do you disappear?+
No. Every full build comes with a 90-day post-launch iteration window included. After that, most clients move into a retainer for ongoing engineering capacity, monitoring, and feature work. You always retain the option to take the system fully in-house — that's a feature, not a friction.
How do you handle scope changes mid-project?+
A change-request log is opened from day one. Anything inside scope ships against the plan. Anything outside is estimated, written down, and either scheduled into a phase 2 or merged with a clear cost delta. No surprise invoices.
Do you only work with venture-backed startups?+
No. We've shipped systems for self-funded operators, SMB teams, healthcare groups, and scale-ups. The bar is the seriousness of the problem, not the size of the funding round.
Can you work with our existing in-house engineers?+
Often, yes — and well. We embed into existing repos, write to your contribution conventions, and pair on architecture. We're explicitly comfortable handing off systems and stepping back; "build a moat we can't escape from" is not our model.

/ Common questions

Honest answers
before you ask.

If your question isn't here, write it into the contact form — we treat the reply as part of the discovery.
Do you do fixed-price or time & materials?

Both, depending on shape. Discrete builds with a clear scope (a dashboard, an integration, a deploy) are fixed-price. Platforms and ongoing R&D run as monthly retainers. We never quote fixed-price before discovery.

Can you take over an existing codebase?

Yes — and we often do. The first two weeks are a written audit: architecture, data model, tests, infrastructure, risks. You get the audit even if you don't continue with us.

What stack do you ship on?

Pragmatic: Django/DRF, Node, Postgres, Vue/React, Docker, Nginx, GitHub/GitLab CI on Linux. Mobile is React Native or native when the project calls for it. We choose per workload, not per hype cycle.

Do you sign NDAs / DPAs / BAAs?

Yes. Mutual NDA on request before discovery. DPA for any engagement touching personal data; BAA for healthcare. We don't display real client data, secrets, or production credentials on this site or anywhere public.

What happens after launch?

Either we hand over with documentation and a 30-day defect window, or we continue as a monthly retainer — feature work, performance, AI/automation upgrades, scaling. Most clients stay on retainer.

Do you work with non-tech founders?

Often. Our discovery process is built for it — we translate operational language into system design, and we don't expect you to know what a webhook is. We do expect a clear picture of the business problem.

/ Not sure which fits?

Start with discovery.

A 30-minute call. We'll listen to the problem, recommend which services apply (and which don't), and follow up with a written discovery plan — no pressure to sign.

/ What we won't do

The lines we
won't cross.

Saying "no" early protects the project. These are the patterns we've learned to push back on — every time.

Quote without discovery

Fixed prices given before we understand the problem are guesses dressed as commitments. We run discovery first, then quote.

Ship without monitoring

If we can't see it in production, we don't know if it works. Observability is part of the build, not a phase-2 add-on.

Skip the data model

Frontend-first builds that defer the schema are technical debt with extra steps. We model the data first, always.

Mock real client data

Demos, marketing, and slides use synthetic data only. Real PHI, secrets, or production credentials never leave the engagement.

/ Process FAQ

Honest answers
about how we work.

The questions we get most often before kickoff. If yours isn't here, write it into the contact form.
How long does discovery take?

One to two weeks for most builds. Larger platforms or takeover audits take three. You get a written discovery document either way — even if we don't continue past it.

Do you charge for discovery?

Yes, at a fixed fee scaled to project size. The deliverable is yours regardless of whether we build phase two. We've found that paid discovery filters for clients who value clarity over speed.

What if the scope changes mid-build?

Expected. Discovery surfaces ~70% of what matters; the rest emerges as we ship. We re-quote in writing for material changes, and you decide whether to add them, defer them, or cut something to make room.

Who attends the meetings?

The founder / engineering lead is in every meeting. Specialists join for their phase. We default to one weekly demo + async written updates — meetings exist to unblock, not to inform.

How fast can we start?

Discovery can usually start within two weeks of signing. Build kickoff depends on discovery outcomes and our current load — we won't take on a build we can't deliver well.

What does "improve" actually look like?

Most clients move to a monthly retainer post-launch — feature work, performance, monitoring response, scale planning. Some hand over fully with a 30-day defect window. Both are fine.

Real client data, secrets, and production credentials never appear in marketing, demos, or anywhere public. Privacy is a build constraint, not a checkbox.

02

Founder-led delivery

One accountable engineering lead from discovery to production. No account managers, no handoffs to a junior team after the contract is signed.

03

Async-first, written-first

Decisions live in writing — discovery docs, ADRs, PR descriptions — so context survives turnover and time zones. Meetings exist to unblock, not to inform.

04

Boring tech when it matters

Django, Postgres, Docker, Nginx. We pick tools per workload, not per hype cycle. The exciting part is the system you build with them — not the framework.

05

Launch is the start

Day one of production is when we learn what users actually do. Retainers, monitoring, and iteration are built into how we price — not a separate sales motion.

06

Honest scope

If a project is wrong for us, we say so during discovery. We lose deals when fit is wrong — and we'd rather lose them then than three months in.

/ Milestones

How the practice
has evolved.

A short, honest timeline. We add markers when something materially changes — not when the calendar rolls over.
2024

IYC founded

Solo engineering practice formed around custom backends, healthcare data, and production deployment.

2025

First multi-tenant SaaS shipped

Clinic platform with tenant isolation, plan tiers, and operational reporting. Becomes the reference architecture for later SaaS work.

2025

AI & automation practice opens

First multi-channel AI support build — email, WhatsApp, web, social — with classification and routing into one operations dashboard.

2026

Specialist network formalized

Flexible roster of mobile, design, and DevOps specialists who plug into engagements when the workload calls for it.

Now

Open for 2026 engagements

Booking discovery calls for new builds and takeover audits across MENA, the Gulf, and remote international clients.

/ How we scale

A specialist network,
not an agency roster.

For larger engagements we bring in vetted specialists who already work the way we do — written-first, async, production-minded.
