Web & App Studio
Websites & apps that ship fast and feel expensive.
ADFO is a lean product studio for startups and scale-ups who need design and engineering that moves at their speed.
What we build
Four ways in, and a date attached to each.
Why ADFO
We do three things really well.
Lightning-fast builds
From concept to production in weeks, not months. We use modern stacks and battle-tested patterns to move fast without cutting corners.
Design that converts
Every pixel earns its place. We obsess over user flows, visual hierarchy, and the micro-interactions that turn visitors into customers.
Reliable delivery
No scope creep. No ghosting. We communicate daily, ship iteratively, and hit deadlines — because your launch date matters.
How we work
Four steps. Zero drama.
Discovery
We dig into your goals, users, and constraints in a focused 90-minute session.
Design
You get high-fidelity mockups in days. We iterate until it feels right.
Build
Clean, performant code delivered in weekly sprints with live previews.
Launch
We deploy, monitor, and hand off everything you need to run independently.

What we build
From idea to live product.
Full-stack products
Dashboards & Platforms
Interactive web apps with real-time data, auth, and APIs — built on Next.js and deployed to the edge.

Startup Products
Get a working product in front of real users quickly. We help you validate your idea without over-building.
Let's talkOur approach
How we actually work.
No BS estimates
We scope honestly. If something will take six weeks, we say six weeks. We’d rather lose a deal than over-promise and under-deliver.
You own everything
Your code, your repo, your infrastructure. We build on open standards so you’re never locked into us or any vendor.
Pricing
Fixed price. Fixed scope.
Not a range, not “from”, and not behind a call. Each tier states what it covers, what it never covers at that price, and the date it lands. Prices are on the build page.
MVP Mini
1 to 3 working days from kickoff
elapsed, from kickoff
A landing page, or a site up to three pages, built and deployed.
- One to three pages, written, built and live on your domain
- Copy drafted from what you tell us the page is for
- A contact or signup form wired to an inbox, and tested
- Your repo from the first commit, yours to keep
Not for you if: People need to sign in, or it has to take money. That is the MVP.
What it covers, and what it costsMVP
5 working days from kickoff
elapsed, from kickoff
One clearly-scoped product, built, deployed and handed over.
- One primary flow done properly, not six done badly
- Your data model and your domain, with the repo transferred on completion
- Deployed and running on your domain, not a zip file
- One round of changes after you have used it
Not for you if: It has to survive real users on day one. That is the Full Build.
What it covers, and what it costsFull Build
2 weeks from kickoff
elapsed, from kickoff
The version you would put a paying customer in front of.
- Everything in the MVP, plus the parts that make it real
- Auth, billing or integrations — pick the two that matter
- Error handling, rate limits and the security traps that apply
- Two rounds of changes, and a handover call
Not for you if: You are still deciding what it is. Scope it as an MVP first and grow it.
What it covers, and what it costsEvery build is booked with 50% up front and completed with the balance at handover, when the repository transfers to you. The terms say what happens if it stops early, and who owns what. There is no retainer and no support plan — the repository and the deploy are yours, and nobody is holding keys you need.
Agent systems
Agentic Operations
The process that currently eats a person’s week runs itself — correctly, on the record, and with your team in the loop exactly where you want them.
Engagement
6 weeks from kickoff
Fixed price, on the build page
The same process, before and after
Nothing about the work changes. What changes is who is waiting on it.
Today
Two to three days, and a slice of somebody’s every morning.
With Agentic Operations
Minutes, unattended — and your team sees only the exceptions.
The hours come back, and they stay back
The point of this is not that agents are clever. It is that a process which currently consumes a person’s week stops consuming it — permanently, not for the length of a pilot. We start by watching the work as it is actually done, then draw a line: what runs without anyone, what waits for a person, and what the system must never touch on its own. That line is agreed before anything is built, and it is what makes the time saving real rather than notional.
It is right, and you can prove it to someone who doubts you
Before we build, we take a set of your real past cases and agree with you what the correct outcome was for each. That becomes the score. Every change is measured against it, and a change that makes the system worse does not ship. When your finance director asks how accurate it is, you have a number and the workings, not an impression.
It cannot do anything you have not allowed
Spending limits, rate limits, an explicit list of actions that touch the outside world, and a shape every output has to fit before it leaves the system. Where the process reads anything a stranger wrote — an inbound email, a form, a document — it is handled as untrusted. You are not relying on the model choosing to behave.
Your people judge only what needs judgement
Anything that spends money, contacts a customer, or cannot be undone stops and waits for a person. So does anything the system is not confident about. What your team gets is a short queue with the case already assembled — the context, the recommendation, the reasoning — so a decision takes seconds instead of a reconstruction. Everything else simply completes.
Not for you if: You want to find out whether agents are useful. That is a pilot, and a pilot should cost less than this.
FAQ
Common questions, straight answers.
No. Coding knowledge helps — it makes reviewing quicker and the handover land sooner — but what actually matters is that you understand which part of your product is being built and can give the detail behind it. The rules in your head are the thing nobody outside your business can guess, and no amount of technical vocabulary substitutes for them.
Five days from kickoff, and kickoff is when the brief, the materials and any access are in — not when you pay. The date is one you control rather than one imposed on you: send the brief a week later and the week moves.
Because it reserves a build week that nobody else can have, and because you should not be handing a stranger the full amount before there is a written scope. The second half falls due at handover, when the repo transfers and it goes live on your domain — so neither of us is relying on the other's goodwill. MVP Mini is the exception: it does not reserve a week, so there is nothing to hold and it is paid once.
Entirely, once the price is paid in full — the repo transfers to you and it goes live on your domain. Until then you have read access and a working URL, so you can see exactly what you are buying. After that there is no licence, no hosting to keep renting, and nothing that stops working if we never speak again.
That is what seeing it early is for. If it is genuinely not what the scope document agreed, it gets fixed. If you have changed your mind about what you want, that is a new scope and an honest conversation about it.
