Mobile apps is overhyped at the macro level and underused at the workflow level. For a NZ accounting firm, that gap is where the actual ROI lives - and where most of our work happens.
The version of mobile apps that accounting firms still use a year after launch.
What mobile apps actually does
A real app on the App Store and Google Play, built around the one job your customers or crew need it for. Bookings, job cards, photo capture, quotes, loyalty, whatever the business actually runs on, with the AI wired in behind it.
- 01 One codebase for iOS and Android, so you are not paying twice
- 02 We handle App Store and Google Play submission and review
- 03 Works offline in the ute, syncs when the signal comes back
- 04 Push notifications your team will actually read, not noise
Built on: React Native Expo Swift Kotlin Supabase Cloudflare Workers
What years of building for accounting firms taught us.
- Accounting firms carry seasonal peaks where document chasing and data entry crowd out the advisory work that actually pays.
- Client document requests, reconciliations, and deadline reminders are the repetitive load behind every busy season.
How we build mobile apps for accounting firms.
We scope narrow, ship a working pilot, then harden it into production. The first slice is the highest-leverage workflow for a accounting firm business, so value lands before the build is finished. IOS and Android apps.
Talk to usThe outcome for accounting firms
Most first releases are in the stores inside 8 weeks, not 8 months. For accounting firms, that almost always shows up as fewer interruptions and a calmer week, not a dashboard chart.

FAQ
How long does mobile apps take to ship for accounting firms?
We aim for a working pilot inside 4-6 weeks - narrow scope, real accounting firms 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.
Can you walk us through a comparable build?
Yes - on the first call we'll pick the closest engagement we've shipped to what you're describing and walk through the outcome, the headcount and the time it took. Most first releases are in the stores inside 8 weeks, not 8 months.
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.
