CUSTOM APPS
A working app in weeks, not quarters.
A real, working web or mobile app — MVP, internal tool, or customer-facing product — built with AI-accelerated development from $15,000. That's a fraction of the $50,000-plus a traditional agency quotes, and it ships in weeks.

Problem
Every small business eventually hits a wall the off-the-shelf software can't fix: a booking flow that doesn't match how you work, a customer portal you don't have, an internal tool your team is faking with spreadsheets. The traditional path to a custom app is brutal for a company your size — agencies quote $50,000 to $150,000 and timelines measured in quarters, so the project gets shelved. Meanwhile the no-code tools get you 80% there and then trap you in their limits. What you actually need is a real app, built properly, but at a price and speed that match a small business — which is exactly what AI-accelerated development now makes possible.
Outcome
You get a working application, built and delivered, that does the specific job you need:
- An MVP to test a product idea with real users.
- An internal tool that replaces the spreadsheet-and-duct-tape workflow.
- A customer-facing app — booking, portal, or a focused product.
Every build includes scoping, design, development, testing, and deployment, and you own the code — no lock-in to us. Starting at $15,000 for a scoped MVP, delivered in roughly 4–6 weeks.
How it works
Scope
we define the smallest version that delivers real value (the MVP), and agree the feature list. Tight scope is what keeps it $15,000 and 4–6 weeks instead of open-ended.
Build
we build it AI-fast with senior oversight — the AI accelerates the work, a human makes the architecture and quality decisions.
Ship
we deploy it, hand over the code, and you're live. Add features in later rounds if you want.
Proof
We ship our own apps. Tamze has taken mobile apps from idea to store-ready — including a countdown app currently in pre-launch on Google Play — plus a range of internal tools and utilities. Same stack, same AI-accelerated process we'd use for you. See them on the work page.

FAQ
How much does it cost to build a custom app?
At Tamze, a scoped MVP starts at $15,000, delivered in about four to six weeks, and you own the code. Traditional agencies typically quote $50,000–$150,000 for comparable custom work with timelines in months. AI-accelerated development is what closes that gap without cutting the quality that matters.
How can you build an app so much cheaper than an agency?
AI tools now handle a large share of the routine coding, so a small team with senior oversight ships in a fraction of the time. We pass that speed on as a lower price. The savings come from scoping tightly to a real MVP and letting AI accelerate the build — not from cutting testing or handing you throwaway code.
Do I own the code?
Yes. When we deliver, the code is yours — repository, deployment, and all. You're not renting the app or locked into us for changes. You can take it to any developer afterward. We're happy to keep building with you, but that's your choice, not a dependency we design in.
What kinds of apps do you build?
Web and mobile MVPs, internal tools and dashboards, customer portals, and focused single-purpose products. We're best on the "one clear job, done well" end — a tight, useful app shipped fast. Very large multi-team platforms are outside our scope; we'll tell you honestly if your idea needs more than a small team.
