Why we exist
Custom apps commonly get quoted at $40,000 and up. That price locks out the businesses an app would help most. So we work differently: a modest build fee, then one monthly plan that covers everything your app needs to stay live.
One app live on both stores. Room for yours next.
All workHomeTriage AI
A homeowner photographs a leak, a dead outlet or a noisy furnace. About twenty seconds later they have a plain-English diagnosis and a short list of licensed local pros. We designed it, built it and run it.
A job tracker your customers check instead of calling.
Daily photos, crew status, estimates and invoices in one place, with your logo on it.
Our quoting range: $3,000 to $7,000 · plan $149 to $249 a month
Class booking and a member pass, without the platform fees.
Members book, check in and track progress in an app that looks like your gym, not someone else’s software.

A note from the founder
I spent years helping local businesses get found online. The same request kept coming up: “We want an app.” Then the quotes would arrive, and the idea would quietly die.
When we built HomeTriage AI and took it through both app stores ourselves, we learned what actually drives the cost of an app, and how much of it a small, modern team can take out. Primus AI Software is that lesson turned into a service.
You will always know the price before we start, you will always talk to a person, and we will still be here long after launch day.
From first call to the App Store, in plain steps.
The full processWe talk. You get a fixed quote.
A free 30-minute call about your business and what you want the app to do. Within a few days you have a written scope, a build price and your monthly plan. No hourly billing, ever.
You see your app before we build it.
We design every screen in your colors and your voice. You tap through a working preview on your own phone and tell us what to change.
We build. You get a new version every week.
You install and try a real version of your app every week, with a short note on what changed. Nothing is a surprise at the end.
We handle the stores, then we stay.
We prepare your listings, get you through Apple and Google review, and publish under your business name. From there your plan covers hosting, updates, fixes and support.
Two numbers, agreed in writing before we start.
Pricing detailsStrategy, design, development and launch on both stores. Most builds land between $3,000 and $10,000 depending on what the app does. Change your mind before launch and half of it comes back.
Hosting, security, the yearly Apple and Google updates, bug fixes and a team that picks up the phone. Plans run $149 to $299 a month for as long as your app is live. The first year after launch is a commitment. After that you can cancel any time.
The deal in one breath: you own your brand, your content and your customer and business data. We own the software and you use it for as long as your plan is active, which is why a build can start at $3,000. If you ever want the app’s code, you can buy it at a price written into your quote before you sign. Read the full deal in plain terms.
Questions owners ask us first
How can you build an app for so much less?
Three reasons. We build your app once and it runs on both iPhone and Android, so you never pay two teams. We use a tested foundation for the parts every app needs, such as sign-in, notifications and payments, so your budget goes into what makes your app yours. And we earn our living by keeping your app running well month after month, not from one large invoice up front. That ongoing plan is what makes the low build price possible.
What does the monthly plan cover?
Everything that keeps an app healthy: hosting, monitoring, security patches, the updates Apple and Google require each year, keeping up with their store rules, bug fixes and support. Small changes such as wording, prices, photos or hours are included. Anything that adds a new screen or feature is quoted at a fixed price before we start.
Whose name is on the app?
Yours. The app is published under your business’s own App Store and Google Play accounts, with your name, your brand and your listing. We help you set those accounts up and manage them for you.
Who owns what?
You own your brand, your content and your customer and business data, always. We own the software and you use it for as long as your plan is active. That is the trade that makes a $3,000 build possible. If you end the plan, we turn the app off and you leave with a full export of your data. If you ever want the app’s code, you can buy it. The buyout price depends on your app and is written into your quote before you sign. Ask on your first call, and we give you the figure as soon as we have scoped your app. See the whole deal in plain terms.
How long does it take?
We plan on eight to twelve weeks from kickoff to the stores. Apple and Google review usually adds a few days at the end. You will get a timeline with your quote.
What kinds of apps do you build?
Apps that help a business serve its customers or run its operation: booking and scheduling, ordering and loyalty, customer portals, job tracking, field tools for staff, member apps and marketplaces. If you are not sure your idea fits, a 30-minute call will settle it.
