What you see running the business
The Cinder way
Cinder does it differently.
AI-assisted development means we move at the speed of thought — without sacrificing quality.
Ship in days, not quarters
Most projects go live in 7-21 days. Daily preview links. No black box.
Transparent, fixed pricing
Starts at $599 for a single-feature app, $3,500 for a full custom build. Quoted up front. No surprise invoices.
Own your code, forever
Full source. Full handover. Zero lock-in. Walk away whenever you want.
Recent work
Real, live apps — built by Cinder.
Some built for clients, some built for our own ventures. Every one of them is live — click through and try them yourself. No mockups, no case-study fluff.
How we work
What you actually get.
You own the code
Full source pushed to your GitHub on day one. No lock-in, no proprietary platform. Walk away whenever.
Fixed price, fixed scope
Quoted up front from the discovery call. No surprise invoices, no scope-creep games halfway through.
Daily preview links
You see the app evolve every working day. No black-box month-long silences before a big reveal.
Stop scoping. Start shipping.
Try a $50 custom demo, or book a free 30-minute call and we'll send a fixed quote within 48 hours. No pressure, no obligation.
