Three ways to work with us
by the hour
Clients arrive three ways: with a budget, with a team that needs a technical lead, or with nothing but the idea. So there are three arrangements.
Three ways to work with Midnyte: development by the hour, a fractional CTO on a monthly retainer, or a venture build for equity.01
Development
You have a budget and you know roughly what you want built. We scope it and estimate it inside 24 hours, bill by the hour against that estimate, and the person who wrote the scope writes the code.
- Rate
- From £75/hr
- Typical
- 9 weeks
- You get
- An estimate first
- Mobile apps — Swift, Kotlin, React Native
- Web platforms — React, Next.js, Node
- AI features inside a product people already use
- The backend, the infrastructure and the bill
02
Fractional CTO
You have a product, a team and nobody senior enough to settle the argument in the room. That job does not need a full-time salary.
- From
- £2,500/mo
- Commitment
- Fixed monthly
- You get
- The decisions
- Architecture, and what you'll regret in eighteen months
- The roadmap, costed, in language a board can read
- Hiring — the spec, the panel, and the bar
- Still in the pull requests
03
Venture
You have something worth building and no budget to build it. We put in the work a funding round would have paid for, and take a share of what it becomes.
- Our stake
- 5–25%
- Your cost
- £0
- You get
- The whole product
- Design and build, from nothing to the store
- Infrastructure and the first year's bill
- A technical co-founder who stays
- You keep the company, the code and the customers
