Software Development · built with an AI-accelerated team

The software you need,
built in weeks
— not quarters.

Custom apps, automations, internal tools, APIs and dashboards — designed and built by useTalos. An AI-accelerated team ships production software faster, and at a fraction of what an agency would charge.

What we build

Real software, shipped and supported

Tell us the problem — we design, build, test and ship the software that solves it, then keep it running as your business grows.

Custom web & mobile apps

Purpose-built applications for your customers or your team — fast, secure, and shaped exactly around how your business actually works.

Automations & workflows

The repetitive, error-prone jobs — data entry, follow-ups, reports, hand-offs — wired together so they run themselves in the background.

AI integrations

Chat assistants, smart search, document processing and AI features built into your product — using the right model for the job, done right.

Internal tools & portals

Admin panels, client portals and back-office systems that replace the tangle of spreadsheets your team is quietly drowning in.

APIs & integrations

Connect the tools you already pay for. We build the APIs and integrations that make your systems finally talk to each other.

Dashboards & reporting

Live dashboards that turn your scattered data into decisions — the numbers that matter, in one place, updated in real time.

Under the hood

Boring architecture. Exciting speed.

We pick proven, well-supported stacks — not the framework of the week — so your software is easy to run, easy to hire for, and cheap to keep alive. The AI acceleration goes into build speed, never into cutting corners.

Our architecture, on one card

The four rules every useTalos build follows, no exceptions.

Tap to flip ↻

How we architect

  • One boring, battle-tested stack per project
  • Tests written as we build — not after
  • Deploys automated from day one
  • Your repo, your keys, your code — always
How it works

From idea to shipped in four steps

We do the technical heavy lifting. You stay close to the work with a demo every week — no black boxes.

Free consult

A 30-minute call where we learn your problem, scope the build, and give you a clear, fixed quote — no jargon.

We build it

Our AI-accelerated team designs and builds your software in short sprints, testing as we go so nothing slips.

Ship & own

We deploy it live, hand over the code and docs, and walk your team through it. It's yours, for good.

We maintain it

Optional care plan: we monitor, fix, and add features as you grow — so the software keeps paying for itself.

Watch it go live — literally

Every build ships through the same automated pipeline: tests run, the build compiles, and your software deploys itself. Try it — this terminal is clickable.

Questions

Answers before you ask

How can you build faster and cheaper than an agency? +

Our team is AI-accelerated: we use AI to handle the repetitive parts of building software — boilerplate, tests, first drafts — so our engineers spend their time on the parts that actually need a human. Less time means a lower price, and you get the same production-quality result.

Do I own the software you build? +

Yes, completely. When we ship, we hand over the full source code, documentation and access. There's no lock-in — you can host it yourself, keep us on for maintenance, or take it to another developer. It's yours.

What if I don't know exactly what I need? +

That's normal, and it's what the free consult is for. Bring us the problem — "my team wastes hours on X" or "I want an app that does Y" — and we'll turn it into a clear plan and a fixed quote before you commit to anything.

How much will my project cost? +

Small tools and automations often start around $2,500. Full custom apps typically land in the $8,000+ range depending on scope. After the consult you get a fixed quote in writing — no surprise invoices, ever.

The finish line

Shipped means shipped

Live in production, handed over with docs, and your team walked through every screen. Then — if you want us to — we stay on to monitor, fix and grow it. Either way, the code is yours from day one.
