Price guide
How much does custom software cost?
There is no price list: the price depends on what the system needs to do. But you can know what weighs on the price and how to start spending less.
Short answer
- The price depends on the modules, on who uses it and on the integrations.
- Starting with the module that matters most in your routine lowers the first investment.
- The systems in our case studies were ready in 20 to 45 days.
- The written proposal lists what will be done, the timeline and the price, before any commitment.
What sets the price
Custom software is your business routine turned into screens. The more parts that routine has, the bigger the project:
- Modules: finance, customers, scheduling, inventory, orders, appointments. Each one is a part of the system.
- Who uses it: just you, your team with different permissions, or your customers too.
- Integrations: WhatsApp, payment providers, invoicing and other systems the business already uses.
- Your business rules: calculations, payouts, reports and approvals specific to your company.
- Where it runs: in the browser on computer and phone, or also as an app in the Apple and Google stores.
How to start spending less
You can lower the first investment without giving up quality:
- Start with the module that hurts the most today. The others come later, in the same system.
- Use delivery in parts: you start using the first modules before the whole system is ready.
- Consider a web app, which opens in the browser and installs on the phone without going through the app stores. FinançaFácil works this way.
- Check whether a ready-made platform from the TWS Store, adapted to your brand, already solves it.
Custom or an off-the-shelf subscription?
Off-the-shelf systems usually charge per user, every month, and the business adapts to their way of working. With custom software, the system follows the way your business already works.
To compare, add up 2 or 3 years of fees for the team you will have, plus the time lost on side spreadsheets, and put it next to the price in the proposal.
Real examples of delivered systems
TWS projects in use, with their development time:
- Fluimed: system and website for a network of 63 clinics and labs, with patients, appointments, referrals, cash and payouts. First version live in 45 days.
- FinançaFácil: financial management platform with budgets, goals and automatic subscription billing. 20 days.
- Bioflorestas: platform for buying and selling forests, with document upload and chat. 30 days.
How the price of your system is set
A conversation to understand the routine: the notebook, the spreadsheets, WhatsApp, who does what. Then a written proposal with what will be done, in what order, how long it takes and how much it costs. Nothing starts until you approve it.
Already have a system built by another company? TWS identifies the technology, keeps it running and evolves it. When patching costs more than rebuilding, it builds again using the data already in place.
01How much does custom software cost at TWS?
It depends on what the system needs to do: modules, who uses it and integrations. After the first conversation, you get a written proposal with what will be done, the timeline and the price, before any commitment.
02Do I need to understand technology?
No. You explain how the business works, in your own words. The technical side is on TWS, and your team gets guidance on how to use it.
03Does the system work on mobile?
Yes. The system opens in the browser on computer and phone, with the same data on both.
04What happens after the system is ready?
TWS keeps the system running and evolves it whenever the business needs something new.
