Who we work with
Startups, labs, and institutions — based in Switzerland.
We partner with four kinds of clients — each demands a different kind of craft.
Diagnosis & scope
We clarify the business goal, users, technical constraints, and risks before talking about development.
Architecture & roadmap
We turn your need into an execution plan for an iOS, Android, web, or AI application: stack, data, integrations, milestones, and priorities.
UX & validated prototype
Key screens are designed and testable before coding starts, so the user experience is validated before late-stage surprises appear.
Milestone-based development
We build your iOS, Android, web, or AI application in functional increments, with regular demos and clear validation points.
Testing, launch & evolution
Before production, the product goes through testing, security, nFADP/GDPR compliance, and long-term support preparation.
Built for teams that can't afford to get it wrong
Predictable delivery, Swiss data compliance, clean handoffs. The way premium software should be shipped.
Milestone-based billing
You only pay for what's delivered. Fixed scopes, fixed budgets, no surprises.
Swiss-hosted & compliant
Infomaniak Swiss hosting. GDPR, nFADP, and HRA compliance by default — critical for health and regulated data.
Clean code handoff
Full source code, documentation, and onboarding. No vendor lock-in — your code belongs to you.
Long-term support
Most of our clients stay for years. Maintenance contracts, evolution roadmaps, and a team that knows your product.

Startups
We've had the privilege of contributing to the world of applied research projects, especially those involving Artificial Intelligence. Our collaborations extend across a variety of esteemed partners, from EPFL-based research projects to startups operating in EPFL's Innovation Park, HEIGVD, and initiatives funded by Innosuisse grants. This experience has deeply embedded in us a respect for research's potential to drive technological innovation. While we don't conduct research ourselves, our proficiency lies in developing mobile and web applications that serve as practical tools for these research ventures.

The cost of a mobile app varies depending on project complexity. At Appik Studio, expect from CHF 25,000 for a solid MVP, up to CHF 150,000 or more for complex applications with advanced integrations.
App development typically takes 3 to 6 months, depending on complexity. An MVP can be delivered in 2-3 months, while a full-featured application requires 4-6 months of development.
We use Expo and React Native for mobile, Next.js for web. Our fullstack TypeScript type-safe stack enables sharing business logic between frontend and backend, eliminating context switching. These technologies benefit from a large community, ensuring maintainability and easy takeover by your teams.
We support both innovative startups and major Swiss institutions. Over 40 projects delivered since we started, from university hospitals to growing startups.
Yes, we offer maintenance contracts to ensure your application's longevity. This includes security updates, compatibility with new iOS/Android versions, and technical support.
