About

We work at the intersection of strategy, development and delivery

We make desktop applications for work scenarios where the browser is not enough

A desktop application is needed when local files, hardware, offline mode, high performance, system integrations, or an employee’s workplace are important. We design the interface, backend, synchronization, updates and secure work with data.

First, we understand the processes, data and limitations, then we design the architecture, interface, backend, integrations and phased implementation.

Tasks

A desktop application is suitable when the work scenario involves local environment, files, hardware, offline mode or high performance requirements.

For what tasks do you need a desktop application?

  • Creating an employee workplace
  • Processing large files, documents and uploads
  • Integration with local equipment and system APIs
  • Work offline with subsequent synchronization
  • Automation of operations on the user's computer
  • Development of a closed corporate tool
  • Connecting backend, API, CRM and internal systems
  • Replacing outdated desktop software with a modern application
Let’s discuss your task

On a call or in chat, we’ll unpack the task, answer questions and suggest a solution. If you are only exploring options, write to us too — we’ll help you find your bearings.

Leave your contacts — we’ll explain the best way to approach the project, how long it may take and what it may cost. No pressure or obligations.

Approach

We design the application taking into account the operating system, data and operational constraints

The approach on which the development of desktop applications is based

  • Understanding the work environment

    We study devices, OS, files, local services, user rights and work scenarios.

  • Designing synchronization

    We determine what data is stored locally, what goes to the backend, and how the application behaves without a network.

  • Making a working interface

    We create clear forms, tables, statuses, settings, notifications and actions for daily work.

  • We are preparing updates

    We think through builds, installation, updates, logs, diagnostics, security and user support.

Process

Each stage has a clear result and an agreed amount of work

We use a 6-step system,

For each stage we record tasks, deadlines and costs. This way, software development remains transparent for the customer and predictable for the team.

Stage 1

Analysis

Study of the problem and requirements

We study the OS, working scenarios, equipment, files, data, security restrictions and required integrations.

Stage 2

Prototype

Structure, logic and product prototype

We design the interface, local data, synchronization, settings, updates and user actions.

Stage 3

Design

Visual concept development

We create a convenient desktop interface: panels, tables, forms, statuses, windows, notifications and error states.

Stage 4

Development

Implementation of project functionality

We develop an application, backend, API, local storage, integrations, builds and updates.

Stage 5

Testing

Checking and fixing errors

We check the application for the required OS, scripts, files, equipment, network errors and updates.

Stage 6

Launch

Publication and commissioning

We are preparing installers, documentation, release, user support and a plan for further updates.

Technologies

We select a stack for architecture, security, integration and further support

We use technologies that are suitable for desktop applications

  • Desktop: Electron, Tauri, React, TypeScript, system APIs, local files and cross-platform builds.

    Desktop

    Electron, Tauri, React, TypeScript, system APIs, local files and cross-platform builds.

  • Backend: Node.js, API, databases, synchronization, authorization, roles and server-side business logic.

    Backend

    Node.js, API, databases, synchronization, authorization, roles and server-side business logic.

  • Integrations: CRM, 1C, equipment, local services, file formats, external APIs and internal systems.

    Integrations

    CRM, 1C, equipment, local services, file formats, external APIs and internal systems.

  • Releases: Builds, installers, auto-updates, logs, monitoring, diagnostics and user support.

    Releases

    Builds, installers, auto-updates, logs, monitoring, diagnostics and user support.

Guarantees

We guarantee transparent work and support after launch

  • We pass on instructions, show how to work with interfaces, roles, reports, admin panel and basic support scenarios.

    Team training

  • We record stages, milestones and priorities so that the team understands the development status and upcoming releases.

    Meeting deadlines

  • We test interfaces, APIs, integrations, access roles, reports, critical scenarios and stability of work processes.

    Quality of work

  • We divide the work into clear stages and show in advance what features are included in the price of the current release.

    Sticking to a Budget

Advantages

We connect not only to development, but also to the business logic of the project

What do you get when you order a desktop application from us?

  • Working tool for OS

    The application takes into account local files, devices, rights, network and real user scenarios.

  • Communication with backend and systems

    Desktop software can exchange data with API, CRM, 1C, equipment and internal services.

  • Offline and synchronization

    If necessary, we provide local storage, action queues, and synchronization after the network is restored.

  • Release support

    We help release updates, collect logs, diagnose errors and develop the application after launch.

Desktop application cost

Guidelines for desktop software formats. We calculate the exact price after analyzing the OS, hardware, data, integrations and scenarios.

How much does it cost to develop a desktop application?

  • Desktop MVP

    The first version of a working application with basic logic and backend

    from 800,000 ₽from 3 monthsDetails
  • Employee's workplace

    Roles, tables, forms, statuses, synchronization and integrations

    from 1,200,000 ₽from 4 monthsDetails
  • Hardware software

    Working with devices, local services, APIs and diagnostics

    from 1,500,000 ₽from 4 monthsDetails
  • Desktop software development

    Audit, improvement, transfer to new architecture and new functions

    from 300,000 ₽from 3 weeksDetails
What determines the final cost?

Price depends on logic, roles, data, integrations and implementation requirements

The cost of a desktop application depends on the number of platforms, local scenarios, hardware, offline mode, synchronization, integrations, updates and security requirements. A simple working application and software for equipment - different development volumes.

We first understand the work environment: OS, devices, data, restrictions, network, files and user processes. After this, we prepare the stages, timing and cost. Brief and calculation - free.
