Custom development services
Most communities launch on the standard feature set and never need us. But if you want something the platform doesn't do yet — an events module, native apps, matching trained on your own members — our engineers build it into your live site, covered by the same tests as the rest of the platform. Fixed price, agreed before anyone writes code.
Configuration, content and wiring up capabilities the platform already has.
New screens and data models, or integrating an outside system.
New subsystems, native apps, or bespoke AI trained on your community.
Custom software goes wrong in a predictable way: work starts from a conversation, the result isn't what anyone pictured, and half of it gets rebuilt. We spend the first days writing down exactly what you'll get — screens, data, rules, and what's explicitly out of scope — and quote a fixed price against that.
Week 2 — building "based on words"
Week 4 — "this isn't what I meant"
Week 6 — half the work redone
Week 12 — launched as it turned out
Budget: 2–5× the estimate
Days 1–3 — scope, screens and acceptance criteria agreed
Day 4 — fixed price quoted against it
Then — built in stages you review as they land
Ships — into your live site, with tests
Budget: the number you approved
Scoping is included in every engagement — you're not paying separately for a document. If you decide not to proceed after seeing the scope, you keep it and owe nothing.
Configuration, content and wiring up capabilities the platform already has. Typically 1–2 weeks.
A designer-led pass over your live site: palette, type scale, imagery treatment, and hero copy that sounds like your community.
We design the profile questions that make your site feel purpose-built — the fields, options and matching weights that matter for your community.
Lifecycle messaging that brings members back: welcome sequence, match alerts, re-engagement and win-back, all on your sending domain.
Safety guidance, FAQ, success stories and landing pages built for search, with metadata that helps you get found.
Bring an existing membership across from another platform without losing history — profiles, photos, matches where the data allows.
New screens and data models, or integrating an outside system. Typically 3–5 weeks.
Real-world events for your community: listings, RSVPs, ticketing and attendee matching, on your site and in your brand.
Sell to your members — flowers, ethnic wear, event tickets, premium gifts — with member-to-member gifting built in.
For operators who match people personally: a workspace to review members, propose introductions and track outcomes alongside the AI.
Reduce fakes with document or selfie verification through a provider of your choice, plus the trust badges and gating rules that use it.
Open a new market properly: translated interface, local date and currency formats, and culturally adapted matching prompts.
Connect your site to the tools you already run your business on, with events that mean something rather than raw pageviews.
New subsystems, native apps, or bespoke AI trained on your community. Typically 6–12 weeks.
Your community in the app stores, sharing the same accounts, matching and chat as your website.
Matching trained on your community's actual behaviour rather than generic signals — the compatibility engine becomes your moat.
Hosted live rounds — speed dating, group mixers, moderated Q&A — with scheduling, rotation and moderation tooling.
Become a platform yourself: run multiple branded communities under your own account, with your own operators and billing.
For regulated markets: data residency, deletion guarantees, audit trails and the documentation your legal team will ask for.
Describe what your members should be able to do. No technical language needed.
We write the screens, data and acceptance criteria, then quote against them. Within 3 working days.
You review each stage on your own staging site before it reaches members.
It ships into your tenant and is maintained with the platform — no orphaned code.
Scope and quote within three working days. No obligation.
