Frequently asked questions

Short answers to the most common questions about our microapps and custom development.

About microapps

What is a microapp?

It's a small web tool focused on one specific problem: making a QR sign, working out a price, preparing a quote. Instead of a large system with lots of features, each microapp does one thing and aims to do it well.

Do I need to install anything?

No. Microapps open in your browser, like any website. There's nothing to download or install.

Do the tools work on a phone?

Yes. We design them to work on phones, tablets and computers. Some tasks, like detailed design editing, can be more comfortable on a larger screen.

What's the difference between free and paid tools?

Free tools cost nothing to use. Paid tools are either a one-time purchase or a subscription, and each tool page says which. Pricing and terms are shown inside the tool before you pay.

How do I access a microapp?

From the microapp library, open the page of the tool you want. If it's available, the button on that page opens the app at its own web address. Tools still in development are marked “Coming soon”.

Do the tools need an internet connection?

Yes. Microapps run in the browser and need a connection to load and, in general, to be used. If a tool ever works offline, we'll say so on its page.

Why does a tool take a while to open the first time?

Some tools and demos run on servers that sleep when they get no visits. In those cases the first load can take up to a minute; after that they work normally. We note this on each tool's page.

About custom development

Can I request a custom application?

Yes. Besides microapps, we build custom web applications, management systems, automations and integrations. Write to us about what you need and we'll talk it through.

What should I include when asking for a project?

A simple description is enough to start: the problem you want to solve, how you handle it today, who will use the tool and any dates that matter to you. You don't need a technical document.

How much does custom development cost?

It depends on the scope of each project. Once we understand what you need, we send you a proposal with the scope, phases and cost, so you can decide with all the information.
