Engagement
How it works
How long does a project take?
Most builds ship in 2–6 weeks, first call to handover. The timeline is fixed in the quote.
What does it cost?
Fixed quote after a free scoping call. Price is agreed before work starts. No hourly billing. Cost guide →
What if the scope changes mid-build?
Changes are scoped and quoted before any work starts. No surprise invoices.
What happens after handover?
Every build includes a bug-fix warranty. Its length is written into the quote. Support after that is optional.
Who will we work with?
The engineers who build it. No account managers, no hand-offs.
Where is the team?
Remote. We work across time zones, live or async.
Ownership and trust
Your code, your data
Who owns the code?
You. Source, deployment, documentation and access are handed over in full.
Do you sign NDAs?
Yes. Before the scoping call, if you want.
Can we see past work?
Most of our past work is under client NDA, so we don't publish it. On the scoping call we walk you through how we solved similar problems: approach, architecture, trade-offs.
What happens to our data?
It stays yours. We never reuse client data or use it to train models.
How do you handle security?
Access control, encryption and audit trails are in scope from day one. Bring your compliance requirements to the scoping call.
Fit
Is this for you
Who is DeltaV for?
Businesses and individuals with a problem that runs on software. Founders, operators, CTOs.
Is custom software worth it for a small business?
When the work repeats and your tools force workarounds, yes. Ship one workflow first to keep cost down.
Should we build or buy?
Buy if a product fits. Build if it doesn't and the work repeats. Build vs buy →
Why DeltaV over a freelancer or a big agency?
A freelancer is one person. An agency adds account managers and hourly billing. DeltaV is five engineers, a fixed quote and direct access.
Technical
What we build
What do you build?
Custom software, internal tools, workflow automation, integrations, data pipelines and applied AI.
Do you work with our existing systems?
Yes. We plug into your CRM, ERP, databases, APIs and spreadsheets, and replace only what slows you down.
Can you fix automation we already have?
Yes. We audit what's running, keep what works and rebuild what breaks.
Do you build AI agents and chatbots?
When that's the right tool. Often search, classification or plain automation does the job better. Applied AI →
Do we need a technical team?
No. We need one person who knows the workflow.
