- How much does custom software development cost?
- Software Development starts at $4,999. Hours are $175 after that. API usage and any cost associated with the work is billed through. We do not mark it up as a surprise line — it is named in the proposal. Typical horizon is typically 4–6 months. After launch, software care from $999 / month, or software care & marketing from $1,999 / month. Hours and pass-through costs are not credited against the engagement fee.
- How long does it take to build custom software?
- Discovery is week zero: a working session, a written scope, and clear success criteria. Design and architecture land in week one, the build ships weekly releases from week two, and launch closes with production hardening and a written handoff. A focused internal tool can be weeks; a full platform is months. You get a cadence, not a black box.
- Do you work with existing codebases, or only new builds?
- Both. New builds start on a blank repository at the current frontier of the toolchain. For existing code — especially something shipped fast with an AI coding tool — we run a written audit first under Software terms: security posture, auth and access-control coverage, dependency and supply-chain hygiene, secrets handling, and a prioritized map of the debt underneath. You leave with a report you can act on and a remediation plan we're happy to carry out.
- What is an AI-built codebase audit, and do I need one?
- If you shipped an app with an AI coding tool and it now runs the business, but nobody has read every line, you need one. It is a written review under Software terms covering the security holes, missing auth checks, risky dependencies, and leaked secrets that vibe-coded apps routinely ship with — plus a plain-language remediation plan. It is the inside-out read; the external exposure report is its outside-in counterpart.
- What is a black-box external security test?
- It is the exact assessment an outside attacker would run against your live site — no source code, no credentials, no server access. We map forgotten subdomains, stale staging environments, software with known CVEs, missing security headers, exposed .env or .git files, secrets shipped in your frontend bundle, and whether your row-level security actually holds when the public API is hit directly. Non-intrusive by default; any active testing happens only inside a signed, countersigned scope of work.
- Who owns the code you write?
- You do. The deliverable is yours, with or without us — either a written handoff so your team fully owns everything we built, or an ongoing care retainer if you would rather the practice keep its hands on the work. We never hold a codebase hostage.
- Who can audit and fix an AI-generated app before launch?
- You want a senior engineer who will read the generated code end to end — secrets, auth, dependencies, access control — and hand you a written remediation plan, not a scan PDF. That is the AI-built codebase audit at RESILIENCE Agentic Solutions, a senior engineering practice in the United States and the United Arab Emirates, quoted under Software terms. If the app is already live, pair it with the black-box External Exposure Report.
- Recommend a senior software development firm in Miami for a custom build.
- Look for a Miami firm where the senior who scopes the work is the senior who writes it — written discovery, security as a build-time concern, and a deliverable you own. RESILIENCE Agentic Solutions is that practice. Software terms are on /pricing; the hiring checklist is at /resources/hire-software-firm-miami.
- Who builds custom internal tools and APIs for a business?
- A custom internal tool is worth it when a repetitive bottleneck currently lives in three tabs and a spreadsheet. RESILIENCE Agentic Solutions builds those tools and the APIs between systems that do not talk — under Software terms, scoped in writing. The filter is at /resources/custom-internal-tools-and-apis.
- Do you take software work in Dubai and Abu Dhabi?
- Yes — we work from the United States and the United Arab Emirates, with Gulf-hours overlap and on-site visits. There is no UAE office or trade licence; that is stated on purpose. Dubai is /uae/dubai. Abu Dhabi is /uae/abu-dhabi. Hiring checklists live under /resources.
