Discovery
A call and a walkthrough of your current workflow. We map what happens on site, what reaches the office, and where the process breaks.
How we work
Custom software, without surprises.
Every project starts with a short discovery and a fixed quote. From there we build in short iterations, with you reviewing progress the whole way.
The process
Five steps, start to launch.
You always know what is being built, what it costs, and what comes next.
Fixed quote
You receive a concrete proposal: what gets built, in what order, and what it costs. The price is fixed before we start.
Short iterations
We build in weekly cycles and you see real progress each week, on the devices your crews actually use.
Launch & handover
We deploy, train your team, and hand over documentation. Your crews start using it in the field the same day.
Ongoing care
After launch we stay available for improvements and new modules, through a simple monthly arrangement.
Engagement models
Three ways to work with us.
Pick the shape that fits your stage. Every engagement is quoted per project, with no license seats and no per-user fees.

FAQ
Common questions.
Anything else, ask us directly at rodrigo@fieldnote-labs.com.
How much does a project cost?
Every project is quoted after a short discovery, and the quote is fixed before we start. You never pay per seat or per user, and there are no surprise line items.
How long does a first version take?
Most first versions go from discovery to field use in a matter of weeks, not months, because we scope tightly and build in weekly iterations.
Who owns the software you build?
Ownership of the work product is agreed in the project contract before we start. There is nothing hidden in the fine print.
What technology do you use?
Modern web technology that runs on any phone, tablet, or desktop browser, with offline capability when the work demands it. We pick the stack per project and explain the choice in plain language.
Do you support the software after launch?
Yes. Most clients continue with a monthly arrangement for improvements and new modules. If you ever prefer to take it in-house, we hand over documentation that makes that possible.
