Full-service Flutter delivery · 2026

Flutter App Development Services —
Design, Build, Ship.

End-to-end Flutter app development from discovery to App Store launch. We handle design, implementation, backend integration, QA, and submission, so you ship a product, not just a codebase. AI-accelerated delivery. 40-60% faster than traditional agencies.

Which do you need?

Full-service delivery vs. developer staffing: know the difference.

This page is for buyers who want an agency to own the whole project, design through launch. If you already have a PM, design, and backend, and just need Flutter engineers embedded in your team, that's a different engagement.

What's included

What's included in a full Flutter service engagement.

One engagement covers every phase from blank screen to live app. No hidden add-ons, no "that's extra" surprises after contract sign.

Discovery + technical spec (weeks 1-2)

We map your user journeys, audit your existing tech stack (if any), define API contracts, choose state management patterns, and produce a written spec you sign off before a line of code is written. No surprises, no scope creep from ambiguity.

UI/UX design: Figma to Flutter

Our designers produce mobile-native Figma screens matched to your brand, with a component library that translates directly into GetWidget-based Flutter widgets. Design review happens before implementation, not after.

Flutter implementation, AI-accelerated

Senior Flutter engineers build with Claude Code, Cursor, and our internal Flutter prompt library. Every PR has AI review + human review before merge. GetWidget UI kit cuts UI work by 20-30%. Daily standups, weekly demos.

QA, App Store launch + post-launch support

Device matrix QA across iOS and Android (phone and tablet). We handle App Store Connect and Google Play Console submission, respond to review rejections, and provide a 2-week post-launch support window for critical bugs.

How it works

The 5-phase service engagement: from discovery to post-launch.

We front-load the decisions. Most agency cost overruns trace back to ambiguous specs and design-during-development. Our process forces clarity before the build clock starts.

  1. 01

    Discovery week

    Week 1-2

    30-minute scoping call followed by a structured discovery sprint. We document user journeys, define the feature set, agree on the tech stack, and deliver a written spec with timeline and fixed-price quote before you commit to the build.

  2. 02

    Design sprint

    Week 2-3

    Figma designs for all screens, component library finalized, client sign-off required before build starts. We do one revision round on the initial designs. Mobile-native patterns only. No desktop-ported layouts.

  3. 03

    Build phase

    Weeks 4-10 (typical)

    AI-augmented Flutter engineers build in two-week sprints. Weekly demo calls with working software, not status slides. Code lives in your repository from day 1. Daily standups, async updates on Slack or your preferred channel.

  4. 04

    QA + App Store launch

    Final 2 weeks

    Full device matrix QA across iOS/Android, regression testing, performance profiling. We handle App Store Connect and Google Play Console submission from your developer account, respond to review rejections, and stand by for launch.

  5. 05

    Post-launch support

    2 weeks included

    Critical-bug fixes at no additional cost for 2 weeks post-launch. Optional monthly maintenance retainer for ongoing updates, SDK upgrades, and Flutter version migrations. Hand off to your in-house team with full documentation.

Service pricing

Fixed-scope or time and materials — two honest options.

We don't pretend fixed-scope works for every situation. Here's when each model makes sense and what each actually costs.

Fixed-scope project: $15k to $80k typical

Best for well-defined MVPs and greenfield builds. We scope with you in discovery week, produce a written spec, you approve the quote, we deliver. No monthly billing surprises. Most 6-10 screen MVPs land between $15k and $30k. Complex multi-role apps with custom backends run $40k-$80k. Scope changes are priced and approved before implementation.

Time + materials: tiered hourly rates

Best for evolving products where the roadmap grows over time. Monthly billing against actual hours at your assigned tier rate. Full transparency: time logs, weekly summaries, no scope-creep negotiations. Typical T&M engagements run 3-6 months. Rates: Junior $18/hr · Mid $28/hr · Senior $40/hr · Lead $60/hr.

T&M tier rates

If you go time and materials: four tiers, clear rates.

Most service engagements start fixed-scope for the MVP, then move to T&M for ongoing product development. Monthly rolling contracts, 4-week minimum.

AI-augmented delivery

Four pillars of our AI-native Flutter workflow.

"AI-accelerated" is our most-questioned claim. Here's exactly how it works and why it produces higher-quality code, not lower. Backed by 1000+ shipped Flutter projects.

Claude Code + Cursor pair programming

Every engineer runs Claude Code and Cursor full-time. Routine widget scaffolding, state management boilerplate, and integration code that used to take hours takes minutes. Engineers spend their time on architecture, not repetitive markup.

GetWidget UI kit: 20-30% less UI work

Our own open-source Flutter component library (used in 100,000+ Flutter apps) is baked into every project. Buttons, cards, lists, modals, form fields: pre-built, pre-tested, on-brand in one config update.

AI test generation: higher coverage, faster

Test scaffolds are cheap when AI writes the boilerplate. We typically ship with 70-80% unit/widget test coverage, which would take 2-3× longer without AI assistance. QA finds fewer bugs because tests catch them first.

AI code review on every PR

Every pull request runs an AI review pass (catching null safety issues, state anti-patterns, and performance problems) before a human reviews it. Our human senior engineers see cleaner diffs and focus on architecture, not lint.

The math

What does a Flutter app cost across agency types?

Hourly rate alone misleads. Scope clarity, AI velocity, and quality-to-rework ratio all shift the final number. Here's the realistic cost of a 6-10 screen MVP across agency types.

Hourly rate Typical MVP cost 6-10 screens, auth, payment, push notifications Timeline to App Store

Cost estimates based on 1000+ shipped Flutter projects. Fixed-scope quotes depend on your specific scope.

We came in expecting a developer for hire. What we got was a team that owned the whole thing — spec, design, build, App Store. Our previous agency billed us for QA and submission separately. Here it was just... included. We shipped in 11 weeks. The design is better than what we had from our old Figma freelancer.

FAQ

Questions we get before the discovery call.

Fixed-scope vs. T&M: how do I choose?
Fixed scope works when you have a clear, written feature list and aren't planning major pivots mid-build. T&M works when you're building a product that will evolve, have a roadmap that isn't finalized, or want ongoing development after the MVP. Most first engagements are fixed-scope (lower risk to both sides); ongoing product development moves to T&M.
Who owns the IP and code?
You do, fully, from day 1. All code is committed to your repository under your organization. We sign an IP assignment agreement as part of the contract. We retain no rights to your codebase, designs, or business logic after the engagement ends.
What happens if scope changes mid-project?
On fixed-scope projects, scope changes are handled via a written change request: we scope the addition, quote it, you approve before we build. Nothing is added to the project without written agreement. On T&M projects, scope changes are natural. You add items to the backlog and we prioritize in sprint planning.
Is a project manager included?
Yes. Every full-service engagement includes a dedicated PM from our side. They run daily standups, maintain the sprint board, own client communication, and keep the delivery timeline accountable. You don't need a technical PM on your side to work with us, though you're welcome to assign one.
Is design done in-house or subcontracted?
Design is done in-house by our own UI/UX designers who specialize in mobile-native Flutter products. We do not subcontract design to third parties. Designs are produced in Figma and handed off as Flutter-component-spec'd files, not generic app mockups.
Do you handle App Store and Google Play submission?
Yes. We submit to both App Store Connect and Google Play Console from your developer accounts. We prepare all required metadata (screenshots, descriptions, privacy policy URL, age ratings), respond to review rejections, and track the review queue through to approval. Apple review times average 1-3 days; Google typically 24-48 hours.
What's included after launch? Do you maintain the app?
A 2-week post-launch critical-bug fix window is included in every service engagement at no additional cost. For ongoing maintenance (Flutter version upgrades, SDK updates, new features, OS compatibility patches) we offer a monthly retainer. Most clients start with a 10-20 hour/month retainer for light maintenance.
How is QA done? What devices do you test on?
QA is a full phase in our process, not an afterthought. We test on real devices: iPhone SE, iPhone 15, iPad (latest), Pixel 7, Samsung Galaxy mid-range, and one low-spec Android device. Test types: functional, regression, performance profiling (Flutter DevTools), deep-link navigation, and background/foreground state handling. All major flows are covered before submission.
How much does a typical Flutter app cost with your service?
A 6-10 screen MVP (login/auth, 3-4 core features, Stripe payment, push notifications, basic admin panel) typically runs $15k-$25k fixed-scope with our AI-augmented delivery. Mid-complexity apps with custom backends, multi-role workflows, and real-time features run $25k-$50k. Enterprise-scale or heavily regulated apps (fintech, healthcare) run $50k-$80k. We provide a written quote after the discovery sprint.
How long does it take to build a Flutter app?
A 6-10 screen MVP typically ships in 8-12 weeks from signed contract to App Store approval. Mid-complexity apps run 12-16 weeks. Our AI-augmented delivery is 40-60% faster than standard agencies on equivalent scopes. The discovery and design phases (weeks 1-3) front-load the decisions that most agencies leave to mid-build, which reduces rework significantly.
