You bring the idea. We’ll help make the important decisions clearer before you start building.

01COST

How Much Could It Cost?

We’ll talk through the scope of your idea and give you a clearer picture of the likely development budget.

02TIMELINE

How Long Could It Take?

Understand the likely build timeline, what affects it, and what could make the first version faster or more complex.

03BUILD APPROACH

How Should We Build It?

We’ll explain the technical approach that makes sense for your product, including platforms, architecture, and technologies where relevant.

READY WHEN YOU ARE

Bring Us the Idea. We’ll Work Through It With You.

Choose a time that suits you. You do not need a finished brief, technical plan, or completed designs before we talk.

I approached Techne HQ with an idea. 12 months later, our app turned over $2m in revenue, the tech worked flawlessly, most importantly, they helped optimising our existing warehouse processes through the implementation of hardware (IoT) which they help us source directly form manufacturer in Shenzhen. Working with these guys are like having a CTO, CMO, COO, and top tier developer on your team.

FAQ

Questions Before You Book?

I only have an app idea. Is that enough?

Yes. You do not need a technical brief, wireframes, or a finished feature list.

Bring us the idea, who you think it is for, and the problem you want it to solve. We can work through the rest together.

What should I prepare before the workshop?

As much or as little as you already have.

That might be notes, sketches, competitor examples, Figma designs, or simply an explanation of the idea. You do not need to create extra documents just for the meeting.

Is the App Idea Workshop really free?

Yes. The workshop is designed to help you understand the likely cost, timeline, technical approach, and next steps before deciding whether to move into development.

Will you tell me exactly how much my app will cost?

We can help you understand the likely budget and what is driving the cost.

A formal development quotation requires a clear scope, but the workshop should give you a much better understanding of what your idea is likely to involve.

Do I need to know what technology my app should use?

No. That is part of what we help you work through.

We can explain the most suitable technical approach based on your product, users, budget, performance requirements, and plans for future growth.

I already have a quote from another developer. Can I bring it?

Yes.

If you already have a development quote, scope, or proposal, bring it to the workshop. We can help you understand what is included, what may be missing, and whether the technical approach makes sense for your product.

Can we sign an NDA before I share my idea?

Yes.

If you want to protect your idea, business information, designs, or product documents before sharing them with us, we can sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) before the discussion begins.

What happens after the workshop?

That depends on what your product needs.

You may decide to refine the idea further, move into UX/UI design and prototyping, prepare a development scope, or proceed into engineering.

The purpose of the workshop is to make that next decision clearer.

You Don’t Need All the Answers Before You Book.

That is what the workshop is for. Bring us the idea and we’ll help you work through what comes next.
