CUSTOM DEVELOPMENT

Your process doesn't
have to fit their software.

OneTime Labs designs and builds purpose-built internal software for organizations with workflows that spreadsheets, off-the-shelf products, and giant enterprise platforms don't handle well.

01

THE IDEA

You know the
problem.
We'll build the tool.

Purpose-built Source code included Deployment documented No forced retainer
02

WHAT WE BUILD

Small enough to stay focused. Serious enough for real work.

The goal isn't to build another giant platform. It's to solve the specific operational problem that's costing your team time.

Workflow Applications

Turn manual processes, approvals, handoffs, and repetitive operational work into a focused application.

Dashboards & Reporting

Bring operational data together and turn recurring reporting work into something useful and repeatable.

Spreadsheet Replacements

Replace the spreadsheet that quietly became a mission-critical application with software designed for the job.

Internal Tools

Build departmental utilities, admin portals, asset tools, compliance systems, and other focused business applications.

Integrations & Automation

Connect systems, APIs, exports, imports, and repetitive processes that currently depend on manual intervention.

Data Applications

Create practical interfaces around operational data without forcing users to work directly from raw databases or exports.

03

TECHNOLOGY

Technology chosen around the problem.

The stack should support the application, not dictate it. OneTime Labs works with modern web, automation, and data technologies selected around the requirements of the project.

Application Development

React · Next.js · TypeScript · JavaScript · C# · .NET

Backend & Data

PostgreSQL · SQL · Supabase · REST APIs · ASP.NET Core · REST API

Automation & Scripting

Python · PowerShell

04

HOW IT WORKS

Start with the problem. Not the technology.

You don't need a finished specification before reaching out. A broken process, ugly spreadsheet, recurring manual task, or idea for a better internal tool is enough to start.

01

Discovery

Define the problem, users, workflow, constraints, and what success actually looks like.

02

Scope

Turn the idea into a defined project with deliverables, assumptions, timeline, and price.

03

Build

Develop the application in visible milestones with working software reviewed throughout the project.

04

Deliver

Deploy the application and provide the agreed source code, documentation, and handoff materials.

05

STARTING PRICES

Defined projects. Clear starting points.

Every build is scoped individually. These ranges establish the size of engagement OneTime Labs is designed to take on.

PROTOTYPE

$1,500+

For validating an idea or turning a manual process into a working proof of concept.

  • Focused proof of concept
  • Core workflow
  • Basic interface
  • Technical feasibility

BUSINESS PLATFORM

$15,000+

For larger applications involving multiple workflows, roles, integrations, or business functions.

  • Multiple application areas
  • Roles and permissions
  • System integrations
  • Structured deployment

ENTERPRISE / CUSTOM

Let's talk.

For complex integrations, migrations, infrastructure requirements, or larger organizational deployments.

  • Custom scope
  • Architecture planning
  • Enterprise integrations
  • Milestone-based delivery

Starting prices are planning ranges, not fixed quotes. Final pricing is based on agreed scope, complexity, integrations, deployment requirements, and delivery schedule.

AFTER DELIVERY

You shouldn't need permission to keep using what you paid for.

Custom development is built around a clean handoff. Ownership, licensing, source-code delivery, deployment, and support terms are defined in the project agreement before work begins.

SourceSource-code delivery is defined as part of the engagement.
DeploymentHost with OneTime Labs, in your environment, or move it elsewhere when the project allows.
MaintenanceOngoing support can be arranged separately. It is not a mandatory development subscription.
06

PROJECT MODEL

Deposits

Projects begin after the agreed initial payment and project scope are approved.

Milestones

Larger projects can be divided into defined delivery and payment milestones.

Revisions

Expected review and revision cycles are included in the project scope before development begins.

Scope Changes

New requirements are documented and priced separately instead of quietly expanding the original project.

Hosting

Hosting and infrastructure are quoted separately when OneTime Labs is responsible for operating the application.

Maintenance

Post-launch maintenance, enhancements, and support are optional follow-on services.

HAVE AN IDEA?

Show me the ugly spreadsheet.

Or the manual process. Or the tool your team keeps saying somebody should build. That's usually where the interesting projects start.
