AI-Accelerated App Development
AI-accelerated bespoke application development. New things that don't exist yet, from initial proof-of-concept through to full production-grade applications.
Why Ignite Studio?
Software at the Speed of Ideas
Digiovations uses AI-assisted development tools like Claude Code, Cursor, and agentic workflows to deliver working software in days and weeks rather than months and quarters.
This is not a theoretical capability. Vault Training Club is a production iOS application built this way, on the App Store after about two months of main build.

Service Tiers
Clear deliverables, timelines, and investment levels. No hidden costs.
PoC Sprint
Working prototype deployed to test environment. Validates feasibility and builds stakeholder buy-in.
MVP Build
Minimum viable product with authentication, data layer, and core user journeys. Deployed to production.
Full Product
Production-grade application with complete features, testing, accessibility, deployment, and handover documentation.
Engagements are fixed-price against a stated effort estimate. Effort is what we commit to deliver in, not a day count we bill against. All prices exclude VAT, charged at the prevailing rate.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a custom app build cost?
A PoC Sprint proving the concept in your environment starts at £6,000, and typically runs £6,000 to £12,000. A production MVP with authentication, a data layer and the core user journeys is usually £12,000 to £24,000. A full production-grade application with the complete feature set, testing, accessibility and handover documentation runs £24,000 to £72,000 depending on scope. Every engagement is fixed-price against a stated effort estimate, and Azure running costs are modelled for you before you commit, so the ongoing figure is known up front.
