THE HONEST PART
Things We Won't Put in a Sales Deck
We're a 4-person team. That's a feature when your project needs senior attention. It's a constraint when you need 15 engineers in parallel. If your build needs a large team, we'll tell you on the discovery call and recommend someone who can staff it.
Our 10-week guarantee works because we scope aggressively. That means we'll push back on features that don't drive revenue — even if you want them. Some clients love this. Others find it frustrating. Know which one you are before you call.
We've turned down projects that were technically interesting but commercially unclear. If you don't know what success looks like for your build, we're probably not the right first call. Talk to a product strategist first — we can recommend one.
Our pricing starts at AED 100K because that's what quality senior work costs in Dubai. If your budget is under AED 50K, check our Digital Employee or talk to NERDSEY instead. We'd rather route you right than squeeze a project into the wrong budget.
METHODOLOGY
The RAPID™
Methodology
How we deliver production-grade software in 10 weeks — with fixed price and zero scope creep.
Discovery & Strategy
We map your revenue model, identify the 3 technical leverage points with the highest ROI, and lock the scope. You get a fixed price before we write a line of code.
Architecture & Design
Database schema, API contracts, infrastructure blueprint — all decided in week 1. UI/UX prototyped in Figma, approved by you before development starts.
Rapid Development
Two-week sprints with a playable demo every Friday. You see real progress, not slide decks. Pre-built modules (auth, payments, admin) mean we spend 100% of time on your unique IP.
Launch & Scale
Deployed to Cloudflare edge (200+ cities). 30-day stabilization included — we fix bugs and handle tweaks at no extra cost. Your code, your repo, your IP. Full handover.
AFTER LAUNCH
What Happens After We Ship
The 30 days after launch matter more than the 10 weeks before it.
30-Day Stabilization
Included with every project. We monitor performance, fix bugs, and handle anything that breaks in production. You have direct WhatsApp access to the engineer who built it — not a support ticket queue.
Ongoing Retainer
Need continued development? Monthly retainers start at AED 5,000 for priority access, feature iterations, and proactive monitoring. Same team. Same standards. No re-onboarding.
Clean Handoff
If you want to bring development in-house after launch, we hand over everything: documented codebase, architecture decisions, deployment runbook, and environment access. Your code. Your infrastructure. No lock-in.
The RAPID™ Guarantee
Iron-clad & Non-negotiable
Scope, price, and timeline locked before you pay a cent. No change-order surprises.
Playable demo every Friday. You see real progress, not slide decks.
30-day post-launch stabilization included. Bugs and tweaks at zero extra cost.
If we miss your deadline, you get 20% off.
We've never paid this. We don't plan to start with you.

Talk to a Lead EngineerSo have we — that's literally why Ficaition exists. We built RAPID™ because we were sick of the same problems: scope creep, surprise invoices, and agencies that ghost after the deposit clears. Here's how we're different: fixed scope locked before we start, fixed price with no change-order fees, and a playable demo every Friday so you see exactly what you're getting. If we miss your deadline, you get 20% off. We've never paid it.
