Mobile App Development FAQs
How does HyperNest help with mobile app development?
Founding engineers who've shipped multiple iOS apps from 0→1 with Swift and SwiftUI. We bring hands-on experience from helping companies like Rupa Health, OddsJam, and Dromo navigate similar challenges.
What's the typical timeline for mobile app development?
Timeline varies based on scope, but most mobile app development engagements see meaningful progress within 4-8 weeks. We start shipping value from week one while building toward larger goals.
Do I need a fractional CTO or founding engineers for mobile app development?
It depends on your needs. Fractional CTOs provide strategic direction and leadership, while founding engineers provide hands-on execution. Many clients start with a fractional CTO to set direction, then add engineers as needed.
How quickly can you start on a mobile app development project?
We can typically begin within 1-2 weeks of signing. We start with a technical discovery session to understand your specific situation before diving in.
What makes HyperNest different for mobile app development?
Unlike agencies or freelancers, we embed as founding team members with outcome ownership. We've navigated mobile app development at companies that successfully raised and exited, so we bring pattern recognition you won't find elsewhere.
