From idea to launch
in four steps.

1

Discovery Call

30-minute call to understand your vision, goals, and timeline. We'll tell you honestly if we're the right fit — and if we're not, we'll point you in the right direction.

2

Proposal & Design

Detailed scope, timeline, and fixed price. No surprises. We'll share wireframes and design direction before writing a single line of code.

3

Build & Ship

Weekly progress updates with a staging link you can click around in. We build in the open — you see exactly what's happening at every step.

4

Launch & Support

We deploy to production, set up monitoring, and hand over the keys. 90 days of bug-fix support included. Your code, your servers, your business.

Small studio.
Big output.

Apex & Studio is a software studio based in the United States. We're not a 50-person agency with account managers and "synergy" meetings. We're builders who ship.

Our approach is simple: build things that work, launch them fast, and iterate based on real users — not boardroom speculation. Every product in our portfolio was built from scratch, launched to real customers, and generates real revenue.

When we take on client projects, you get the same team and the same intensity. We treat your product like it's our own — because our reputation depends on it.

What our clients say.

Real feedback from founders and businesses we've worked with.

"They shipped our MVP in 3 weeks. Not a stripped-down prototype — a real product with auth, Stripe billing, and a polished UI. We started charging customers on day one."

MR
Marcus R. Founder, SaaS Startup

"What impressed me most was the transparency. Weekly staging links, honest timelines, and zero surprises on the invoice. They delivered exactly what they promised — and then some."

SK
Sarah K. Owner, CopperState Panel Co.

"Other agencies quoted us $40K and 6 months. Apex built the same thing for $8K in 4 weeks. The code quality is excellent — clean, tested, and well-documented. Best money we ever spent."

Start a Project

Common questions.

Everything you need to know before starting a project.

Landing pages start at $1,000, business websites at $3,000, and SaaS MVPs at $8,000. Every project gets a fixed-price quote before we start — no hourly billing, no surprise invoices. Use our free cost estimator for an instant ballpark.

Landing pages: 1–2 weeks. Business websites: 3–4 weeks. SaaS MVPs: 4–8 weeks. We give you a specific timeline before starting and stick to it. 100% of our projects have been delivered on time.

Yes, 100%. You own the source code, the design, and everything we build. We deploy to your infrastructure and hand over complete access. No vendor lock-in, no recurring platform fees, no proprietary frameworks.

Ruby on Rails for web applications, Elixir/Phoenix for real-time systems, React for rich frontends, React Native for mobile, and PostgreSQL for databases. We pick the right tool for the job — but we don't chase trends. Battle-tested tech ships faster and breaks less.

Every project includes 90 days of post-launch bug-fix support at no extra cost. After that, we offer ongoing maintenance and feature development at competitive rates. Or you can take the code and run — it's yours.

Absolutely. Scroll up to our Products section — every product listed is live and built by our team. You can also check our detailed case studies for specifics on tech stack, challenges, and results.

Yes. Typical structure is 50% upfront and 50% on delivery. For larger projects ($10K+), we can split into 3 milestones. We're flexible — let's find what works for both of us.
