Frequently asked questions

I have an idea, not a spec. Can you still help?

That is the majority of our projects. We run a paid 1–2 week discovery sprint to convert an idea into a clickable prototype, a feature list and a credible fixed price. If you do not like the proposal at the end of discovery, you walk away with the prototype and owe nothing else.

Can you white-label a product for my agency or reseller business?

Yes. Several PiTech customers resell our software under their own brand to their downstream clients. We support white-label, multi-tenant, custom domain and per-customer branding.

Do you sign NDAs?

Yes — before the first discovery call if you want. Standard mutual NDA on request, your own template accepted.

Can you host the software for us or do we host?

Either. We can manage hosting on AWS, Azure, GCP, DigitalOcean, Hetzner or your private cloud. We can also hand off to your internal infra team with a runbook.

What about app-store submission?

Included. We submit iOS apps to the Apple App Store and Android apps to Google Play and Huawei AppGallery under your developer accounts.

Can you build offline-first apps for low-connectivity areas?

Yes. Many African deployments require it. Our default mobile architecture is offline-first with background sync, conflict resolution and progressive loading.

Do you offer AI/ML integration?

Yes. Computer vision (image classification, OCR, weight estimation), NLP (chat, summarisation, sentiment, multilingual), recommendation engines, fraud detection, voice / IVR AI. We integrate Anthropic Claude, OpenAI, open-source models, and on-device inference for offline mobile use.

What languages do you support in your software?

English, Swahili, French, Arabic, Portuguese, Spanish and any other language on request. Right-to-left layouts supported.

Have an idea? Let’s build it.

Tell us about your product in a 30-minute discovery call. We will tell you honestly whether it is buildable, how long it takes, and what it costs — before you commit to anything.
