Five steps. You see working software every week from week three, and you can stop at any milestone with everything we made so far.
Plan
A 30-minute call, then a written scope with price and dates. Optional two-week App Plan with a clickable prototype.
Design
Every screen designed in your brand. You approve before development starts.
Build
One codebase for iPhone and Android. Weekly demo on your own phone.
Launch
We handle App Store and Google Play review, listings and screenshots.
Care
Every Keepport app is on a care plan: updates, monitoring, fixes and improvements for as long as you run the app. Billed monthly or annually.

“Most business owners I talk to have been burned once: an app that cost more than quoted, then quietly died when the developer moved on. I started Keepport to do the opposite. We agree the price up front, and we stay after launch.”

- The signed price is the final price
- You see working software every week

Your app launches in week ten. We're still there in year ten.
Every year Apple and Google ship a new OS and new store rules. An app nobody maintains breaks or gets removed. Under a Care Plan, the engineer who built your app keeps it current through every release.
Scoped and quoted before we start
You approve the scope, the price and the calendar before we write a line of code. No hourly billing, no surprise invoices. The code and the store accounts are yours from day one.
A named engineer, every month
iOS and Android change every year. Every Keepport app is on a care plan that covers the updates, the monitoring, the fixes and the small changes, with one person who knows your app answering the phone.

Developer disappeared, iOS update broke it, nobody has the passwords. We audit it in a week, stabilize it, then keep it running.
