Frequently Asked Questions
Straight answers about cost, timelines, and what it's like to work with a small software team in Richmond, Indiana. Don't see your question? Ask us directly.
Cost and timelines
How much does a custom website or app cost?
It depends on what you need. A simple business website costs far less than a custom app with accounts, payments, and integrations. After a free consultation we send a written proposal with the scope of work and a transparent estimate, so you know the cost before any work begins. No surprises.
How long does a project take?
A straightforward business website typically takes a few weeks. Online stores, internal tools, and automations usually take one to three months, and mobile apps can take longer depending on features. Your proposal includes a timeline with milestones so you know what to expect.
Is the first consultation really free?
Yes. We'll schedule a call at your convenience, dig into what you need, and answer your questions. There's no obligation to move forward.
Working with us
Where is Efreet Software located?
We're based in Richmond, Indiana. We work with businesses in Richmond, Wayne County, and across Indiana, and with businesses in the Cincinnati, Ohio area. Because most of our collaboration happens over video calls, we can work with businesses farther away too.
What kinds of businesses do you work with?
We focus on small businesses, especially those without an in-house IT department or an enterprise budget. If your team is running things on spreadsheets and sticky notes, you're exactly who we built this company for.
I'm not technical and I don't know exactly what I need. Can you still help?
Absolutely. No tech jargon required: tell us the problem you're trying to solve and we'll recommend a solution, explained in plain language. Sometimes the best answer is a smaller project than you expected.
How involved do I need to be during the project?
As involved as you want to be. We check in with you at each milestone so you can review progress and give feedback, but you won't need to manage the technical details.
How do I get started?
Send us a message through the contact form on this site. Tell us a little about your business and what you're looking for, and we'll get back to you to set up your free consultation.
Services
What services do you offer?
We build websites and web apps, ecommerce stores, iOS and Android mobile apps, custom internal tools, and business automations, and we offer ongoing support and maintenance after launch.
Can you work with the software we already use?
Yes. A lot of our work is connecting existing tools so they share data automatically, rather than replacing software your team already knows.
Can you take over a website or app another developer built?
Yes. We'll review the existing code first and tell you honestly what shape it's in, then recommend whether to maintain it, improve it, or rebuild it.
Do you offer support after launch?
Yes. Our support plans cover bug fixes, security updates, content changes, and new features as your business grows. You can also contact us as needs come up instead of committing to a plan.
