Room to respond
Your needs can change once people start using your app. Our credit-based approach gives you room to respond — you can build, learn and improve at a pace that works for your organisation.
Appertite — an appetite for building apps that matter
You have an idea.We'll make ithappen.
Appertite designs and develops web and mobile apps one clear request at a time. Tell us what you need next, and we'll scope it and tell you how many credits it will use — before work begins.

The Appertite manifesto
A different way to develop an app
02
A clear estimate, every time
Each request has a clear scope and a credit cost agreed before work begins. You decide what matters most and where to spend your budget next — never the other way round.
03
Open to every good idea
A first working version, a new feature, or an improvement to something you already have. You don't need a finished specification to start — we'll help you make the next useful move.
The credit sandbox
See what a request might use
Every request is scoped individually before work begins — this is only a flavour of how credits map to real work.

Could the rota remind volunteers the day before their shift?
Your developer
Good thinking — I'll fold that into this request.
Your developer
Done, it's live. Take a look and tell me what's next.
How it works
Three steps. No surprises.
1
Tell us what you need
Share your idea or your next request — in plain words, however rough.
2
Get a clear credit estimate
We agree what the request covers and how many credits it will use, before anything starts.
3
We build it
You can see the work take shape and decide what to request next.
The two-working-day promise
Every scoped request is designed and delivered within two working days. If we miss it, we refund the credits — no questions.

Strong ideas shouldn't need deep pockets
Not-for-profits and volunteer organisations often have strong ideas and tight budgets. We give them a better pound-to-credit rate, so their funding goes further. Where we can, we may work at cost or offer our time for free.
