About
About Xternal Studios
We help founders turn validated ideas into production-grade mobile apps and CRM/ERP MVPs in 6–12 weeks. You get a pragmatic stack, short feedback loops, and delivery you can actually track.
What We Build:
- Mobile Apps (iOS/Android): auth, onboarding, subscriptions, push, real-time features, offline-first.
- CRM/ERP MVPs: customers, billing, roles/permissions, workflows, dashboards.
- Integrations: payments, auth providers, email/SMS, analytics, accounting, POS.
How We Work (end-to-end):
- Discovery (3–5 days): goals, constraints, success criteria, scope cuts. Outcome: brief, milestones, estimate.
- Sprint 0 (3–5 days): repo, CI/CD, environments, design tokens, base screens, test scaffold.
- Build (4–10 weeks): weekly demos, small releases, tracked backlog, measurable milestones.
- Launch (3–5 days): staging sign-off, production deploy, app store submission (if mobile), smoke tests.
- Handoff & Support (optional): docs, runbooks, onboarding session, 2–4 weeks of post-launch support.
- Typical total: 6–12 weeks depending on scope and integrations.
What You Get
- Code ownership (your org repos) + clear architecture diagrams.
- CI/CD pipelines (lint, tests, build, deploy).
- Test-covered features (unit + basic e2e where it matters).
- Operational docs (env vars, secrets, incidents, runbooks).
- Roadmap & backlog for the next 4–8 weeks.
Tech We Like (pragmatic, interchangeable)
- Frontend/Mobile: React Native, Expo, Next.js, React js
- Backend: Node.js/TypeScript, .NET, FastAPI/Django.
- Data: PostgreSQL/MySQL, Prisma/TypeORM.
- Cloud & DevOps: Docker, Cloud Run/EC2, Supabase/Firebase, GitHub Actions.
We’ll adapt to your constraints if there’s a good reason.
FAQs
-Do you really deliver in 6–12 weeks?
Typical for an MVP with focused scope. Heavier compliance, custom integrations, or large feature sets extend timelines.
-Who owns the code and infra?
You do. We work in your repos/cloud and hand over everything with docs.
-How do we communicate?
Weekly demos, shared backlog, and a single point of contact. No surprise scope changes—everything is visible.
