Our position

Every company says it’s digital. Few can prove it. The proof is your product: the app your customers open, the site your buyers judge you by, the systems your team runs on. We build that proof, and we build it to last.

    FAQ

    Clear answers,
    before you ask.

    What does HALO Studio do?

    HALO Studio is a product engineering firm. One senior team designs, builds and runs mobile apps, websites and web platforms, business automations, and dashboards and internal tools.

    How long does it take to build an app or website?

    A focused Sprint takes 2–3 weeks. A complete product Build takes 6–12 weeks, including discovery, design, engineering and launch. You get a timeline and a fixed quote after the 3–5 day Signal stage. Read what affects an MVP’s cost and timeline.

    Where are you based, and who do you work with?

    We're remote-first and take on projects from founders, product teams and agencies in any time zone. Client details stay confidential, and we can share relevant references on request. Contracts and invoices in USD, EUR or GBP.

    How do you price projects?

    Fixed price for Sprints and Builds, a monthly retainer for Orbit. After the Signal stage you get a clear scope and a fixed quote, and nothing changes without your sign-off.

    Who owns the code and designs?

    You do. 100% of the source code, design files and IP transfer to you, fully documented, with no lock-in.

    What technology do you use?

    Flutter, React Native, Next.js, Node, Supabase / Postgres, n8n / Make and the major AI APIs, chosen for each project, never out of habit.

    Can you work alongside our existing team?

    Yes. We plug into in-house teams and agencies, in your tools, rituals and repos, and your team gets access to the project cockpit too.
