Why is an app at Appmitki cheaper?
At an agency you mainly pay for working time: concept, design, coding, testing and project management. For a simple app that quickly adds up to several weeks.
At Appmitki, AI writes most of the code. Our team in Gössendorf near Graz checks the app before it reaches you. That keeps the price small, and the first version is ready in days instead of months.
What sets the price of an app?
The features. An app that shows content costs less than one with login, bookings or payments.
The data. Apps with accounts or shared data need a server, phone-only apps do not.
The connections. Every link to an existing system, for example a calendar, is a part with its own price.
The devices. At Appmitki, iPhone and Android are always both included.
