Answers about production engineering, vibe-code rescue, AI integration, and how Bytewise scopes engagements. Most calls cover the same handful of questions. These are them.
We specialize in three core areas: migrating businesses off no-code platforms to custom code, integrating AI capabilities into existing products, and providing ongoing development through our subscription model. We work primarily with startups and growing companies who have outgrown their current tech.
We are based in Houston, Texas, but work with clients across the United States and internationally. All of our projects are managed remotely with regular video check-ins and asynchronous communication via Slack.
Our core stack includes React, Next.js, Astro, Node.js, Python, and various AI/ML frameworks. For infrastructure we use Vercel, AWS, Cloudflare, and Docker. We select the best tools for each project rather than forcing a one-size-fits-all approach.
We start with a thorough audit of your existing no-code application - its data model, workflows, integrations, and user flows. Then we create a migration plan that ensures zero downtime. We rebuild your app in custom code, migrate all data, and run both systems in parallel before cutting over. The whole process typically takes 4-12 weeks depending on complexity.
We build custom AI features including chatbots, content generation tools, data analysis pipelines, recommendation engines, and workflow automation. We integrate with OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, and open-source models depending on your needs and budget.
Dev on Demand is an embedded development team for a flat monthly rate. You get engineers who learn your codebase and work through your roadmap - feature work, bug fixes, improvements, whatever you need. It's billed month-to-month with no long-term contracts, so you can scale capacity up, down, or pause as your priorities shift.
Project costs vary widely based on scope. No-code migrations typically range from $2,000 to $10,000+. AI integrations start at $1,200 for a single feature. Our Dev on Demand plan starts at $4,995/month. We provide detailed quotes after an initial discovery call.
Yes. For project-based work, we typically structure payments as 50% upfront and 50% on completion. For larger projects, we can do milestone-based billing. Dev on Demand is billed monthly with no long-term commitment required.
We follow a streamlined process: Discovery Call (understand your goals) -> Proposal & SOW (detailed plan and pricing) -> Design & Architecture (if applicable) -> Development (iterative sprints with regular demos) -> QA & Testing -> Launch -> Post-launch support. You have visibility into progress at every stage.
We use Slack for day-to-day communication, Linear for project tracking, and schedule weekly video calls for status updates. You will have direct access to your developer - no account managers or middlemen.
We offer unlimited revisions on all deliverables until you are satisfied. For subscription clients, there is no lock-in - you can pause or cancel at any time. We stand behind our work and will make it right.
