IoT Platform & Connected Device Apps for Stavanger
An IoT platform connects devices, collects their data and lets people monitor and control them. For Stavanger clients we usually begin with device provisioning (secure onboarding and certificates) and data pipeline, then add dashboards and ota updates. Pricing is set as per your requirements and budget.
SaaS MVP Development for Stavanger
A SaaS MVP is the smallest version of a subscription software product that proves customers will use and pay for it. For Stavanger clients we usually begin with discovery sprint (user stories, scope and success metrics) and ux prototype, then add multi-tenant core and billing. Typical first release: 8–12 weeks.
On-Demand Delivery App for Stavanger
An on-demand delivery app connects customers, stores or restaurants, and couriers in real time. For Stavanger clients we usually begin with admin panel (zones, pricing and promotions) and payments, then add customer app and merchant app. Typical first release: 12–18 weeks.
Crypto Payment Gateway for Stavanger
A crypto payment gateway lets merchants accept Bitcoin, Ethereum and stablecoins such as USDT and USDC, with instant conversion to fiat if required. For Stavanger clients we usually begin with auto-conversion (instant fiat conversion via liquidity partners) and payouts, then add compliance and merchant onboarding. Typical first release: 10–16 weeks.
Example project in Stavanger
Picture a maritime business in Stavanger that needs a IoT platform & connected device apps. Discovery and a clickable prototype take about two weeks; the first release — mobile app, device provisioning and data pipeline — follows in 12–20 weeks.
