Software people love is made, not assembled.Romeo Valentine · Founder, Hectic Software
By Romeo Valentine, Founder
Most apps are built to be finished. We build them to be used every day by people who notice the details: how a screen settles into place, how quickly it opens, how it feels in the hand. That is the difference between software people tolerate and software they love.
So we build the way Apple builds, with Swift, SwiftUI and the frameworks behind every Apple screen. One codebase reaches iPhone, iPad, Watch, Mac, Apple TV and Vision Pro, with widgets, Siri and Live Activities included rather than bolted on.
“You talk to the person building your app. Nothing gets lost in translation.”
There are no account managers between you and the work. You see a working beta on your own phone early, decisions are made on the real thing, and the price is agreed in writing before we start.
And when it's done, it's yours: the app, the App Store listing, the code and your customers' data. We stay on to keep it fast and current with every new iOS.
Work with the engineer, not a chain of hand-offs.
Apple, Android, Windows, Linux, TVs and web.
Your app, listing, code and data. No lock-in.
On-device AI keeps customer data on the phone.
A TestFlight beta in your hand while we build.
Fixed, written quotes and weekly progress.
iPhone, iPad, Watch, Mac, Apple TV and Vision Pro in Swift and SwiftUI.
Accounts, admin dashboards, client portals and real-time sync.
Apple Pay, Stripe, Klarna, subscriptions, booking and deposits.
Assistants, camera analysis and smart actions that run on the device.
End-to-end encryption, passkeys and two-factor sign-in.
App Store listings, TestFlight betas, review and updates for every iOS.
Your business, your customers and what success looks like.
Your brand, screens and flows, designed the Apple way.
Native engineering with a working beta early.
You and your team test on TestFlight and send feedback in seconds.
App Store release, then updates, fixes and new features.
It depends on scope. After a short call we send a fixed written quote with what's included, so there are no surprises.
Yes. On completion the app, its App Store listing and the source code belong to you.
Yes. Android phones, Android TV and Fire TV sit alongside Apple, Windows, Linux, smart TVs and the web. Apple apps are built natively in Swift; other platforms use their own native tools.
You get a working beta on your own iPhone through TestFlight early in the build, and new versions as we go.
Yes. Care plans cover updates for each new iOS, fixes and new features.
Every client gets a private project page with status, quote, messages and files.
