App development

Small business software, properly handled.

Portals, quote and booking tools, dashboards and internal systems built around one real piece of work.

A bounded route

The useful work starts after the prompt demo.

Mavie defines the job, protects the data, handles permissions and failure cases, launches safely and remains responsible afterwards.

01

App Map or Rescue Review

A workflow map, risk review, proposed scope and ownership plan—including an honest recommendation not to build when a simpler product is better.

02

Working Prototype Sprint

One important workflow, realistic test data and a private preview people can use before production commitments are made.

03

Production App Build

Authentication, data, roles, integrations, testing, launch and an ownable handover for a clearly bounded web application.

04

App Care

Monitoring, recovery, dependency updates, small improvements and a named support route after launch.

Good first fits

Software with a clear job.

The strongest early projects remove a known bottleneck for a defined group of customers or staff.

01

Customer portals

A secure place for customers to see information, files, progress or agreed actions.

Map this workflow
02

Quote and configuration tools

Turn a repeat set of choices into a clear request, calculation or prepared quotation.

Map this workflow
03

Booking workflows

Coordinate availability, reminders, exceptions and the systems already used by the business.

Map this workflow
04

Memberships and directories

Bounded member access, profiles, useful search and carefully assigned permissions.

Map this workflow
05

Document preparation

Collect approved information and prepare consistent documents for a person to check.

Map this workflow
06

Internal operational tools

Replace a fragile spreadsheet or repeated hand-off with one visible working process.

WITH CARE
AI with boundaries

Fast in preview. Deliberate in production.

AI can explore, draft and assemble approved modules in an isolated preview. Authority narrows as a change becomes harder to reverse or affects more people.

01
Private preview, realistic fixtures and an undoable checkpoint
02
Visible changes, tests and a reviewable module manifest
03
Explicit approval before real messages, prices or outside actions
04
A named person controls publishing, permissions, migration and deletion

A deliberate boundary

Not every app should be built.

Mavie does not begin by advertising regulated systems, money custody, safety-critical decisions, open marketplaces or ambitious native consumer apps. The first review can recommend an existing product instead of custom development.

Questions

Before an app project begins.

Can you rescue an app started with AI or another developer?

Yes. The first step is a Rescue Review covering the repository, deployment, data, access, important workflows and the safest route forward.

Do you use AI to build applications?

Yes, where it makes exploration or implementation faster. Generated work enters Mavie-owned source control and must pass the same review, testing and release process as human-written work.

Who owns the code, accounts and data?

The proposal states the exact terms. The normal direction is customer-owned accounts, an exportable repository and data, documented deployment and no unnecessary dependence on Mavie.

Can we begin with a prototype?

Yes. A prototype uses fixture or sanitised data, stays private and avoids real external actions until the workflow and production scope have been reviewed.

How is an app priced?

The App Map or Rescue Review is a bounded diagnostic agreed before work starts. A production build is quoted only after the workflow, risks, integrations and ownership responsibilities are understood.

App Map or Rescue Review

Begin with one real piece of work.

A few lines about the users, the current process and what should become easier are enough.
