Software development services, sorted by where you are today
Boffin Coders offers software development services to small businesses, agencies and founders: web applications, mobile apps, websites, search, design and AI with a person in charge of it. We are eighteen people in Mohali and have sold software development services from India since 2017. Pick the state your product is in today, nothing built, underperforming, outgrown or needing an owner, and the page for that state tells you what we would do, what it costs and what we can show you.
Development $12-40 an hour. SEO from $10 an hour. Projects from $4,000. Every rate
One question decides where to start
What state is the thing in today? Everything below follows from that answer: the service, the price line and who you would talk to.
What state is it in today?
None of these? The first call is twenty minutes, costs nothing, and we will say if it is not ours to build.

Running a clinic, a trade or a shop and need a website that brings enquiries? That is our local business line. Running an agency and need the build done under your name? That is white-label development. Would rather start from your sector? The industries page sorts the same work by the business it is for.
What you can check before a call
Every number here is dated and can be opened: an app you can install, a site you can crawl, a client platform written up with the client's permission, and review profiles we cannot edit.

What we do not claim
No compliance certificates, no app with millions of users, no fine-tuned models and no guaranteed rankings. Each service page says what is running with a client, what is built and not yet in use, and what we have not built. If something you need sits in the third group, the first call is where we say so, not a month into your project.
Portals, dashboards and platforms, built in your repository
Most of what we build is a web application for a small business, an agency client or a founder: a booking portal, a practice system, an internal dashboard, a members area. We write it in Next.js and Node.js, with React or NestJS where your team already knows them, so the people who inherit it can read it.
The repository is under your organisation from the first commit and the hosting account is in your name. When the project ends you already have everything, including the deploy scripts, and nobody has to ask us for a password. Delivered builds in the portfolio include Clinevo, a healthcare services platform, and the Maurice Andrews Solicitors site.
What it covers
- Customer portals and booking systems
- Internal dashboards and admin tools
- APIs for a mobile app or a partner
- Payments, email and third-party integrations
- Hosting set up in your own account
- A handover your next developer can follow
Mobile apps for iOS and Android from one codebase
We have sixteen apps of our own on Google Play, and seven of them are also on the App Store. All of them are written in Flutter. They were never marketed, so we do not quote installs. What they prove is that we finish and maintain: store reviews passed, privacy forms filed, and releases shipped since launch.
For a client app we use Flutter by default, or React Native when your team already writes React and wants one language across the website and the app. Either way the app ships from your own developer accounts, not ours, so it stays yours if we part company.
What it covers
- iOS and Android from one codebase
- Offline use and on-device processing
- Camera, location and file access
- Store submission and privacy forms
- Push notifications
- Updates after launch
Technical SEO that ships the fix in your code
Search work here starts in the code: pages Google cannot render, redirect rules that swallow live URLs, templates that generate duplicates, a slow first paint on a phone. We fix them in your repository or your CMS and check the result in Search Console, rather than handing over a report for someone else to act on.
The other half is the ordinary work that still decides whether a local business gets found: service pages that say what you do and where, a complete Google Business Profile, and reviews that get asked for. We have done that for cleaning, painting and solar companies and for an online car accessories store.
What it covers
- Rendering, indexing and crawl fixes
- Site moves that keep every URL
- Programmatic pages from your own data
- Local search and Google Business Profile
- Structured data that matches the page
- Reporting from Search Console, not a vanity tool
Websites and online shops your team can edit
A website your team can change without calling a developer. We build on WordPress, on Shopify for shops, and headless where it earns its cost: a Next.js front end reading from a CMS. That is how this site runs, on Payload CMS, and you can view the source of any page to see what it ships.
Shopify builds in the portfolio include Classy5, Office Furniture Scotland and TITI Atelier. WordPress builds include Sasso Sports and McConnell Bourn. Each one is listed with the stack it was built on, and the search set-up is part of the build rather than a second supplier after launch.
What it covers
- WordPress builds and rebuilds
- Shopify stores and theme work
- Headless front ends on Next.js
- Content models your editors understand
- Redirects mapped before launch
- Search set up from the first day
UI/UX and brand design your developers can build from
Screens for web and mobile products, designed in Figma with components named the way the code will name them. Brand identity for businesses that need a logo, colours and type that hold together across a website, a van and an invoice. Print and packaging too, when a brand needs it.
Design and build sit in one scope here, so the handover is a conversation between two desks rather than a file thrown over a wall. The design portfolio shows the work itself: dashboard and app screens, brand identities, brochures and packaging.
What it covers
- App and dashboard screens
- Clickable prototypes
- Design systems in Figma
- Logos and brand identity
- Brochures, print and packaging
- Files handed over in your name
Developers by the month who work only on your product
When the work does not end, a project is the wrong shape. A dedicated developer works only on your product, in your repository, your tracker and your chat, and reports to whoever runs your roadmap. Node.js and React from $3,000 a month, Flutter from $3,500 a month, WordPress from $2,000 a month.
There is no minimum term, and either side gives a month’s notice. You meet the developer before they start, and the code and the accounts stay in your name from the first commit, so ending the arrangement costs you nothing but the notice.
What it covers
- One developer or a small team
- Your tools and your process
- Month to month, a month’s notice
- Code and accounts in your name
Old software fixed first, rebuilt only when it has to be
Most old systems do not need a rewrite. They need the three things that break every week fixed, tests around the parts nobody dares touch, and a hosting set-up someone on your side understands. We read the code before quoting and price the fix apart from any rebuild, so you can see which one you are buying.
When a rebuild is the right call, the risk is the URLs and the data. Our receipt for that is a framework move: timezones.in, 10,723 pages moved to a new framework with none lost. It was not a PHP migration, and we say so rather than let the number imply it.
What it covers
- A code read and a written assessment
- Fixes to what breaks most often
- Tests before anything is moved
- Rebuilds that keep every URL
- Data moved and checked, table by table
- A plan you can stop halfway
AI that takes a chore off your team, with a person in charge
We build AI that runs on the device or on your own server where it can, and that stops before anything irreversible: it drafts, a person sends. The speech to text inside IELTS Builder runs on the client’s server, so recordings never go to a vendor. PDF Toolkit reads documents on the phone.
What we have not built: fine-tuned models, predictive analytics, or a system that acts on its own where a mistake cannot be undone. We would rather say that here than have you find it on a reference call. The AI automation page helps you work out which of the four AI services, if any, fits the chore you have in mind.
What it covers
- Drafts of emails and replies for a person to approve
- Reading documents and forms
- Speech to text on your own server
- Answers from your own documents
- A chatbot that answers from your site
- Every irreversible step kept behind a person
How our software development services run, start to finish
Whichever page you land on, the engagement runs the same way, and you own everything at every step.
A twenty-minute call
With the person who would do the work. You describe the problem, we say what it would take and roughly what it costs.
A written scope
What gets built, what does not, the price and the order of work, before anything starts. Changes are priced as they come up.
Built in your accounts
Repository, hosting and store accounts in your name from the first commit. You can watch the work as it lands.
Handed over or kept on
A handover your next developer can follow, or a developer by the month who stays on. A month’s notice either way.
What each line of work costs
In USD. The low end of each range is a junior on routine work, the top a senior on complex builds. Projects are scoped once from the floor on each service page, and you get the exact figure before any work starts.
| Line of work | Hourly | By the month, full time |
|---|---|---|
| Websites and CMS | $12-30 an hour | from $2,000 a month |

Questions people ask on the way in
Which service, what it costs, why a team in India, whether we will work on somebody else's code, and what happens on the first call.
By what state the thing is in. Nothing built yet is a scoped project. Something that exists but underperforms is usually a fix and search work rather than a rebuild. Something that has outgrown itself is a rebuild, done without losing a URL. Something that needs owning month after month is people rather than a project.
