Studio Builds

You bring the idea. I'll build the app.

The done-for-you side of Kealy Studio. A handful of projects a year, taken from written spec to a live app on the App Store — then handed over, completely.

Builds start from

$750

The Apple App Store and Google Play logos

Both stores. I take it all the way to a live listing — and then the whole thing is yours.

What a build includes

The full technical foundation — app, backend, authentication, database, deployment. Production-grade from day one.
Built to your PRD — your product, your decisions, my engineering.
Taken through App Store and Google Play review — I handle the submissions.
Complete handover — the code, the accounts, the keys. All of it is yours.

Expo · React Native · Supabase — shipped to both stores.

After handover

The app is yours. I'm still reachable.

Ongoing maintenance isn't in the build price — when the handover is done, the engagement is done and the app's future belongs to you. Plenty of owners take it straight from there.

You don't have to, though. A Studio membership keeps me on the other end of a message — the same person who wrote your app and knows exactly why it's built the way it is. A bug at eleven at night, a store rejection, the feature you want next: send it over and I'll answer.

Why this doesn't cost what agencies charge

An agency quote prices in their learning curve — new stack, new architecture, new mistakes. Studio Builds doesn't have one. Every project ships on the same production stack the Studio teaches — Expo, React Native, Supabase — sharpened project after project, year after year.

AI now does the heavy lifting on top of that foundation, with me directing every line of it. The result: builds land in days or weeks, not months or quarters — and because the price follows the hours, a quick build is an affordable one.

That's the whole trick. No offshore teams, no corners cut — just a stack that has already made every expensive mistake, so your project doesn't have to.

Have a PRD? Great. Don't? Also fine.

A PRD — a Product Requirements Document — is the written spec your app gets built from. If you have one, send it over: it's the fastest possible start.

If you don't, two good options: describe the idea in the form below and we'll shape it together — or create a free Studio account and let the roadmap walk you through writing one yourself.

How it works

  1. 1

    Tell me about it. The form below is enough — a few sentences about the app. You can book the call in the same breath, or wait for my reply.

  2. 2

    We talk it through. Half an hour, no pitch, so I properly understand what you're building. Then I'll tell you straight how long it'll take and exactly what it costs. Every build is quoted against its actual scope: a two-screen utility and a marketplace with payments are not the same project, so $750 is where builds start, not what they all cost.

  3. 3

    I build it. On the Studio's stack, with AI doing the heavy lifting and me directing it — then I take it through App Store and/or Play Store review.

  4. 4

    Handover. Code, accounts, keys. It's yours.

Tell me about your app

Three quick questions — no essay required. I read everything and I'll reply personally. If you'd rather not wait on my reply, you can book the call at the same time.
