Build the platform behind the business.

Most platform builds run 8-16 weeks for an MVP, depending on complexity. A simple SaaS application with authentication, a core workflow, and basic integrations typically lands around 8-10 weeks. More complex platforms with multiple roles, payments, integrations, and reporting push toward 12-16 weeks. We break engagements into 2-week sprints with working demos, and larger projects begin with a phased roadmap so an initial version can launch while the remaining work continues.

Yes. Many engagements involve taking over or extending an existing codebase. We audit the architecture, technical debt, test coverage, and deployment pipeline, then recommend what should be retained, refactored, or replaced. The goal is a pragmatic plan, not an automatic rewrite.

We offer ongoing support for maintenance, feature development, infrastructure management, and production issues. A clean handoff is also available, including architecture diagrams, API documentation, deployment guides, runbooks, and structured knowledge transfer. You own 100% of the code and IP from day one.

Delivery is managed through weekly or asynchronous updates, a shared Slack channel, and a visible task board in Linear or the tool your company already uses. Every sprint starts with planning and ends with a working demo, so you can see what is complete, what is next, and where the project stands.

Cavanex works on either a fixed-price project basis or a monthly retainer. Fixed-price works best for clearly defined projects; retainers fit ongoing work where priorities can shift. Typical engagements range from $30K-$150K+ depending on scope, complexity, and duration. You receive a detailed proposal after discovery so the milestones, deliverables, and costs are explicit.
