FAQ
How long does mobile apps take to ship for Napier-Hastings businesses?
We aim for a working pilot inside 4-6 weeks - narrow scope, real Napier-Hastings businesses data, measurable outcome. From there it's another 6-8 weeks of hardening before you'd consider it production. Full rollouts (multiple sites, multiple teams) typically land in 3-4 months.
Are there hidden costs we should plan for?
Three to know about: model/API spend (which we set up under your own account, not ours, so you see and control it), any new SaaS subscriptions we recommend, and your team's time during rollout. We surface all three in the quote so there are no surprises.
Do you have proof this works for Napier-Hastings businesses?
Direct case study: Most first releases are in the stores inside 8 weeks, not 8 months. Happy to walk you through full numbers on a call.
Who owns the code and the model setup?
You do, on delivery. We deploy mobile apps into your own cloud account where possible, with the model setup, prompts, evals and integration code all checked into a repo you own. React Native sits in your account too - we don't operate it from ours.
