How Appycodes started

Building tech was far more complicated than it needed to be — too many vendors, too many handoffs, and too many teams whose incentive ended at launch. So in 2015 we set out to fix that, with one engineer, a laptop, and a commitment to make it simpler.

That has grown into a team supporting companies across India, the UK, Europe and the US. We build SaaS platforms, mobile apps, AI systems and ecommerce, alongside the search and performance work that helps customers find them. Several relationships have continued through years of maintenance, new products and changes in direction.

We bring a product and CTO perspective to delivery: what the business needs to achieve, which trade-offs are sensible and what it will cost to operate the result. That means discussing priorities before features, documenting decisions and planning for support or handover from the start.

A good referral beats a bad engagement. If it is not something we do well, you hear that on the first call.

The way we work, from day one

01

Senior engineering involvement

The senior engineers who scope your project remain directly involved in the build.

02

Clear ownership

Your repository, your cloud accounts, your keys, from day one. There is no lock-in in the contract and none in the architecture either.

03

Long-term support

We design for long-term operation and continue supporting several platforms years after launch.

04

Clear fit from the start

We confirm where we can add value on the first call and recommend a better route when another team is more suitable.

05

Evidence from delivery

Our cost studies and benchmarks use data from completed, production engagements.

06

Clear scope and risk

A fixed written scope with the risky parts named up front. If we think your budget is wrong for the outcome, you hear it before you commit.

Frequently asked questions

How big is the team?

Deliberately small and senior. Engagements are run by the founders with a core team of engineers who have worked together for years — which is why a four-year partnership across five codebases is possible at all.

Where are you based, and who do you work with?

We are based in India and most of our work is for companies in the UK, EU and US. Weekly demos on a real environment do more for a remote engagement than any amount of status reporting.

What happens if we want to take the code in-house?

We plan a documented handover to your team. Repository and infrastructure ownership, access, operational knowledge and any third-party licences are recorded so your team can continue the work.

Do you do fixed price or time and materials?

Scoped phases with a fixed written scope and a number attached. Long-running platform work usually settles into a monthly arrangement once the shape of the system is known.
