Consumer software is sold to individuals through a marketing funnel. The success metrics are different from B2B: conversion rate, retention curve, viral coefficient, LTV-to-CAC. The architecture must support fast iteration and high-traffic spikes. This page covers what we build for consumer use cases, the stack we use, and what it costs.

What we build

Consumer apps and platforms

Standalone consumer products with auth, payments, content, and engagement loops. Examples: fitness apps, learning apps, productivity tools, niche social platforms.

Consumer marketplaces

Two-sided marketplaces matching consumer buyers with sellers. KYC, payment processing, trust and safety, reviews, dispute handling.

Subscription services

Recurring revenue consumer products. Stripe Billing with churn reduction, pause/skip flows, lifecycle automation, retention analytics.

Mobile-first PWAs

Cross-platform consumer experiences delivered as Progressive Web Apps. No app store gatekeeping. SEO-discoverable. Installable.

Direct-to-consumer (D2C) platforms

Consumer ecommerce or service platforms with high-conversion checkout, lifecycle email automation, and growth analytics.

Use cases with cost ranges

Consumer mobile MVP with subscription

React Native consumer app with social login, subscription via Stripe or RevenueCat, push notifications, in-app analytics. App Store and Google Play submission included. Typical build 10 to 14 weeks. Range $8,000 to $14,000 depending on feature scope.

Two-sided consumer marketplace

Buyer and seller sides. KYC via Stripe Identity or Onfido. Multi-party payments via Stripe Connect. Reviews and dispute handling. Trust and safety queue. Typical build 14 to 20 weeks. Range $12,000 to $55,000 depending on category complexity.

Subscription consumer service

Recurring revenue with pause/skip/swap flows. Failed-payment retry. Churn analytics. Lifecycle email via Klaviyo or Iterable. Typical build 8 to 12 weeks. Range $11,000 to $38,000 depending on subscription logic complexity.

Mobile-first consumer PWA

PWA delivered as installable mobile experience. Web Push notifications. Offline browsing. Fast checkout. Lifecycle automation. Typical build 8 to 12 weeks. Range $8,000 to $14,000 depending on offline scope.

How we run the build

Five-phase rhythm for consumer software builds. Growth analytics wired in from sprint 1.

  • Discovery and growth scope (1 to 2 weeks). Target audience. Conversion funnel design. Growth analytics plan. Privacy scope (GDPR, COPPA if under-13 in scope). Output: scoped milestones plus growth analytics plan.
  • Design and conversion architecture (1 to 2 weeks). Mobile-first UI in Figma. Conversion-optimised funnel. Auth flow. Output: design system plus funnel architecture.
  • Build (5 to 12 weeks). Two-week sprints. Core Web Vitals gate on every PR. Conversion analytics validated every sprint.
  • Pre-launch optimisation (1 to 2 weeks). Performance testing at 10x baseline. A/B test framework live. Lifecycle email flows configured.
  • Launch and dual on-call (1 week plus 2 weeks). Production deploy with feature flags. Monitoring. Dual on-call. Runbook delivered.

Tech stack

Default B2C stack. Each layer chosen for conversion, scale, and rapid iteration.

  • Front end. Next.js with TypeScript and Tailwind CSS. Core Web Vitals optimised (LCP under 2.5s, INP under 200ms, CLS under 0.1). Mobile-first responsive design.
  • Mobile. React Native for cross-platform consumer apps. Native iOS (Swift) or Android (Kotlin) where the engagement requires deep OS integration.
  • Back end. Node.js (Fastify) for general API. Python (FastAPI) for ML or recommendation engines. Stateless behind API gateway. Edge functions for low-latency.
  • Data layer. PostgreSQL via Supabase or Neon. Redis for hot data and session. CDN-fronted media via Cloudflare, Imgix, or Vercel Image.
  • Auth. Social login (Google, Apple, Facebook, Microsoft) via Clerk, NextAuth, or Supabase Auth. Magic link for friction-free signup. Phone OTP via Twilio.
  • Payments. Stripe for card, Apple Pay, Google Pay. PayPal, Klarna, Afterpay where the audience needs it. Subscription billing via Stripe Billing.
  • Analytics and growth. PostHog or Mixpanel for product analytics. Segment for data integration. Optimizely or GrowthBook for A/B testing. Klaviyo or Iterable for lifecycle email.

Privacy and consent

Every B2C build ships with cookie consent (OneTrust, Didomi, or Cookiebot), server-side consent gating, right-to-erasure flows, subprocessor list maintenance, and DPA review per region. Apple App Tracking Transparency for iOS. GDPR, CCPA, and CPRA aware by default.

FAQ

B2C software development is custom software built for consumer users (individuals) rather than business buyers. B2C software is typically distributed via app stores, web search, or social channels, and success metrics include conversion rate, retention curve, viral coefficient, and lifetime value (LTV) to customer acquisition cost (CAC) ratio.
