Question 1

What does Kite Flyer Software Studio do?

Accepted Answer

We are a Hong Kong software development consultancy building web apps, mobile apps, AI features, and custom platforms—from discovery and UX/UI through agile development and launch support.

Question 2

Where is your team based?

Accepted Answer

Our product, design, and engineering team operates from Hong Kong. We work with local startups, SMEs, and enterprises, as well as international teams that want a Hong Kong-based partner.

Question 3

How fast can we start?

Accepted Answer

After a short discovery call we typically begin scoping within days. MVPs and larger programs follow a roadmap we agree with you upfront—no endless proposal cycles.

Question 4

What budgets do you work with?

Accepted Answer

We support projects from roughly HKD 5k through enterprise-scale engagements. Share your range on the contact form and we will recommend a sensible scope with clear milestones.

Question 5

Fixed-price quote or time-and-materials—which do you recommend?

Accepted Answer

For well-defined scopes, fixed-price milestones work well. For products still evolving, time-and-materials with a capped budget and weekly demos keeps flexibility without losing control. We will recommend the model that fits your risk tolerance and how clear your requirements are today.

Question 6

What technologies do you use?

Accepted Answer

We choose stacks per product—commonly React, Next.js, Node.js, cloud-native backends, and modern AI APIs—always aligned with maintainability and your team’s ability to own the code after handover.

Question 7

Can you integrate AI into our product?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We design and ship AI features with validation, guardrails, and cost-aware architecture—not demo-only prototypes that fall apart in production.

Question 8

Why work with a Hong Kong consultancy instead of cheaper offshore teams?

Accepted Answer

Offshore can look cheaper on paper, but timezone gaps, rework, and misaligned expectations often erase the savings. A Hong Kong consultancy gives you same-time-zone collaboration, clearer accountability, and faster decisions—especially when requirements change mid-build.

Question 9

How should I evaluate a software consultancy in Hong Kong?

Accepted Answer

Look beyond the portfolio slide deck: ask for relevant case studies, who will actually build your product, how scope changes are handled, and what you receive at handover. Strong consultancies explain trade-offs honestly, document decisions, and give you a realistic timeline—not just the number you want to hear.

Question 10

Who owns the source code and intellectual property?

Accepted Answer

You do. Upon payment of agreed fees, source code, designs, and deliverables are transferred to you. We use standard contracts that spell out IP assignment, third-party licences, and what stays in shared tooling versus what is yours to keep.

Question 11

How do you keep clients updated during a project?

Accepted Answer

You get a single point of contact, regular check-ins (typically weekly), and shared visibility on progress—demos, not status-deck theatre. We flag risks early, document decisions in writing, and respond in Hong Kong business hours so you are never guessing what shipped.

Question 12

Do you offer support after launch?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We can stay on for maintenance, monitoring, and iterative improvements—either on a retainer or per sprint. We also hand over cleanly: documentation, deployment runbooks, and knowledge transfer so your in-house team or another vendor can take over without friction.
