How we work
Our product development process, step by step.
Whether you're a founder, a business, or an agency, your project goes through the same six-stage product development process, from our first conversation to launch and support.
Our process
- 1
Understand
Objective: Understand the business goal, product idea, or project requirement.
What happens: We discuss requirements, understand your goals, identify challenges, and define the expected outcomes.
You get: A clear, shared understanding of the project direction.
- 2
Plan
Objective: Define the right approach before development begins.
What happens: We define scope, prioritise features, select suitable technologies, and plan the development approach. The right technology depends on the product requirements, business goals, development speed, and future scalability — we choose tools to fit the product, not the other way around.
You get: A clear development roadmap.
- 3
Design
Objective: Create a user experience and interface aligned with the product requirements.
What happens: User experience planning, interface design, user flow creation, and design iteration.
You get: A clear product design direction.
- 4
Build
Objective: Develop the product using appropriate technologies.
What happens: Frontend development, backend development, integrations, and testing.
You get: A working digital product.
- 5
Test & improve
Objective: Ensure the product works effectively before launch.
What happens: Testing, bug fixing, performance improvements, and implementing user feedback.
You get: A refined product ready for use.
- 6
Launch & support
Objective: Help you move from development to real usage.
What happens: Deployment, launch support, improvements, and future development.
You get: A live product that can keep evolving.
How we work with you
Communication
We keep communication clear throughout the project — transparency, regular updates, and quick feedback cycles.
Collaboration
Projects are built collaboratively. You stay involved in requirements, feedback, and product decisions.
Flexibility
We adapt how we engage based on project size, business requirements, and development needs.
Common questions
What kind of products does Qodenova build?
MVPs and first versions, web applications such as SaaS platforms and customer portals, mobile applications, internal tools like admin systems and workflow apps, AI-powered features and automation, and product websites and landing pages.
How do you decide which technology to use?
The right technology depends on the product requirements, business goals, development speed, and future scalability. We choose tools to fit the product, not the other way around, and that decision is made during the Plan stage before development begins.
How does a project start?
You send us your project details through the contact form. We read your message and get back to you to talk it through, discuss your idea, requirements and whether we are the right fit, and if it is a match we plan the next steps together.
How long does it take to build an MVP?
Usually 2–4 weeks from start to launch. The exact time depends on what we agree to build when we plan the project together.
How does pricing work?
We're flexible and shape our pricing around your needs. Tell us what you want to build, and we'll suggest an approach and a price that fits your project.
Who owns the finished product?
You do. Once the project is paid in full, the code, designs, and content we created for you are yours.
Do you work with clients in other countries?
Yes. We work remotely with clients around the world, with regular updates and quick feedback throughout the project.
Do you work with agencies as a development partner?
Yes. We work with agencies as a delivery partner on client projects, covering product development and technical support so the agency can take on work it could not otherwise staff.
What happens after the product launches?
Launch and support is the final stage of our process, not the end of it. It covers deployment, support through launch, improvements, and future development, so the product can keep evolving once it is live.
