Builder Studio

Your idea, built and shipped.

We're a two-person studio that takes your project from concept to a live, working product. You tell us what you need, we write the code and get it online.

What we build

We're a builder studio. That means we actually write the code, set up the servers, and get your product in front of real users. We're not here to consult or make slides.

Websites & Web Apps

Whether you need a simple landing page or a full web application with user accounts and dashboards, we build it from the ground up and deploy it for you.

SaaS Products

We build complete software products with everything that entails: user authentication, payment processing, admin panels, APIs, and the infrastructure to run it all.

Mobile Apps

We develop cross-platform mobile apps for both iOS and Android. Same quality, one codebase, ready for the app stores.

Existing Products

Already have something live that needs work? We can jump into your existing codebase to fix bugs, add features, or improve what you already have.

We focus on building. Marketing, SEO, and content creation are outside our scope.

How we work

Every project follows the same straightforward process. You always know what's happening and what comes next.

01

Tell us your idea

Send us an email describing what you want to build. We'll get back to you within 24 hours with questions and initial thoughts. If a call makes sense, we'll set one up. Most projects start just fine over email.

02

Scope and quote

After the call, we put together a detailed document that outlines exactly what we'll build, how long it will take, and how much it will cost. Everything is agreed on before any work begins.

03

Development

We get to work. Throughout the process we keep you in the loop with regular updates so you can see your product coming together in real time.

04

Launch and handoff

Once everything is tested and ready, we deploy your product and hand over full ownership. The code, the accounts, the infrastructure. It's all yours.

Built by us: Swalance

A fintech SaaS we built entirely from scratch, for real users.

Swalance — fintech SaaS platform

Swalance is a fintech platform that handles invoicing, payments, user management, and financial workflows. We built every part of it ourselves because we wanted to prove that we could take a complex product from an empty folder to a live, working application that people actually use.

The entire stack is ours. The backend, the database architecture, the auth system, the payment integration, the deployment pipeline, and the frontend. We didn't use a template or a no-code tool. We wrote it all.

Backend

Custom server architecture and REST APIs

Database

Relational database design with migrations

Auth

Complete authentication and authorization system

Payments

Integrated payment processing

Deploy

Production deployment with CI/CD pipeline

Frontend

Full responsive web application

Swalance is live, it's maintained, and it's growing. This is the kind of work we do, and we want to do the same for your project.

How pricing works

A simple landing page and a full SaaS product are very different projects, so we quote each one individually. What stays the same is the process: you'll always know the full cost before we start working.

How we get to a price

1

We talk about your project

On the discovery call, we figure out what you're building, what the must-haves are, and what your budget looks like. This call is free.

2

We scope it out

We break down the project into concrete pieces and estimate how long each one takes. We also list out any third-party services you'll need and what they cost (hosting, domain, payment providers, etc.).

3

You get a fixed quote

You receive a document with everything laid out: what we're building, what it costs, and how long it takes. If the scope changes later, we discuss it first. No surprise invoices.

What's included in every project

✓Full-stack development

Frontend and backend, written and tested by us.

✓UI implementation

We build the interface. If you have designs, we follow them. If you don't, we handle it.

✓Deployment and launch

We set everything up on your accounts and get your product live.

✓Source code ownership

The code is yours. You can take it anywhere, hire anyone else to work on it, or do whatever you want with it.

✓14 days of support after launch

If something breaks or needs a small adjustment in the first two weeks, we take care of it.

Need us after launch?

After the first 14 days, we offer ongoing maintenance plans for teams that want us to stick around. That covers things like bug fixes, small updates, security patches, and monitoring. It's a separate monthly or yearly agreement, and it's completely optional. If you'd rather manage things yourself or bring in your own team, that works too. We hand over everything you need to do that.

Who we are

Valerio

Developer

Gabriele

Developer

We're Valerio and Gabriele, two Italian developers in our early twenties. We started Ideaho because we kept building things on our own and figured we should do the same for other people too.

Together, we built Swalance, a complete fintech SaaS, from scratch. That experience taught us how to take a product from the first line of code all the way to production, and it's exactly what we bring to every project we take on.

When you work with us, you're talking directly to the people writing the code. There's no project manager in between, no account rep. Just us, building your product.

Common questions

It really depends on what we're building. A simple website can be done in a couple of weeks. A full SaaS product with authentication, payments, and a dashboard is more like 6 to 10 weeks. We'll give you a clear timeline in the scope document before any work starts.

Absolutely. Most people come to us with just an idea and maybe a few notes. That's exactly what the discovery call is for. We'll help you figure out what to build first and what can wait.

Yes, completely. The source code, the infrastructure accounts, the documentation. Everything we produce during the project belongs to you. You're free to hire someone else to continue the work, modify it, or do whatever you want with it.

All accounts and services are set up under your name. You pay the hosting providers directly, which means you're never dependent on us to keep your product running. We handle all the technical configuration, but the ownership is always yours.

That's great, we'll follow them. If you don't have designs, we can handle the UI ourselves. We're developers first, so for projects that need serious design work we'll be upfront about it during the scoping phase.

The first 30 days after launch are covered. If a bug comes up or something needs a quick fix, we handle it. After that, we offer monthly or yearly maintenance plans if you want us to keep looking after things. It's completely optional.

Yes. We take on projects with existing codebases all the time. Whether you need bug fixes, performance improvements, or new features added to something that's already live, we can work with what you have.

We don't lock ourselves into one specific stack. We choose the tools that make the most sense for each project. That said, we typically work with modern frameworks and cloud infrastructure. We'll recommend the right stack during the scoping phase and explain why.

The project quote covers our development work. Infrastructure costs like hosting, domains, and third-party services are separate and paid directly by you to the providers. We always list these out in the scope document so you know exactly what to expect before we start.

Yes. We're based in Italy but we work in English and operate fully remote. Time zones have never been a problem for us.
