A free technical consultation: talk to a developer about your project

Before you spend money on a website, app or system, talk to the person who writes them. We will help you choose a technology, assess another company's offer or decide whether an old project can be saved.

When a consultation makes sense

Situations where one conversation saves weeks of work or a good amount of money.

  1. You

    I am not sure whether I need a website, a store, an app or a panel.

    VulCode

    A website, a store, an app or a panel? Talking about the goal often gives a different answer than the first idea.

  2. You

    I have an offer from another company and I do not know what is in it and what is missing.

    VulCode

    We help you read the quote: what it covers, what is missing and where extra charges may come from.

  3. You

    The previous vendor stopped answering and the project is not finished.

    VulCode

    The previous vendor vanished or is not finishing. We tell you what to check before deciding whether to take it over.

  4. You

    I do not know whether to pick a ready platform or custom code.

    VulCode

    A ready platform or custom code, a native or a web app. Every option has its own running cost.

  5. You

    I need to connect sales to e-invoicing, payments or an ERP.

    VulCode

    E-invoicing, payments, marketplaces, ERP. We tell you whether a plugin is enough or code is needed.

  6. You

    We have an old system and do not know whether to rewrite or keep developing it.

    VulCode

    Whether to rewrite or keep developing, and how to move the data without downtime.

What a consultation looks like

No sales presentation. We talk about your problem. The form or an email. This is a message after which we know right away how to prepare.

What we cover and what a call cannot replace

Honest about the limits of one conversation.

In a consultation

  • The project's goal and which service fits it
  • Technologies and their running cost
  • Reviewing another company's offer or quote
  • A first look at a problem with an existing site or system

Outside a consultation

  • A line-by-line code review, which is an audit
  • Writing code or fixes during the call
    An order
  • A binding quote without a known scope

Describe the situation in a few sentences and suggest how you would like to talk. We will reply with a time.

    We come to your company when the problem is easier to show on site. Around Kraków: we travel after agreeing a date in advance.

  • In Polish or English

    The person who builds the code of your project. Not a salesperson.
