Question 1

What does Kite Flyer Software Studio do?

Accepted Answer

We are a Hong Kong software studio. We build websites, apps, and internal tools for SMEs, NGOs, and solo founders. Work covers planning, screen design, build, launch, and support.

Question 2

Where is your team based?

Accepted Answer

Our product, design, and engineering team works from Hong Kong. We work with local SMEs, NGOs, healthcare teams, and CPA firms, and with overseas teams who want a Hong Kong partner.

Question 3

How does a project start, and how fast can we begin?

Accepted Answer

After you contact us we reply within one business day. Next is a short discovery call, then a written scope with milestones. We usually start planning within days of that call—not weeks of proposal ping-pong.

Question 4

What budgets do you work with?

Accepted Answer

We take on work from about HKD 5k through larger programmes. Share your range on the contact form. We will suggest a sensible scope with clear milestones, not a padded quote.

Question 5

Is pricing fixed-fee, or do hours add up?

Accepted Answer

When the scope is clear, we prefer fixed-fee milestones so you know the cost. If the product is still changing, we can use time-and-materials with a budget cap and weekly demos. We will recommend the model that fits how settled your requirements are. You will not get surprise hourly bills for agreed work.

Question 6

Will this be too technical for our team?

Accepted Answer

We choose common web tools such as React and Next.js so the result is maintainable. You do not need to know the stack. We explain choices in plain language and hand over so your staff or another vendor can take over.

Question 7

Can you add AI features to our product?

Accepted Answer

Yes, when they save real time—such as reading bills, drafting reports, or sorting documents. We build checks so the feature is usable in daily work, not a demo that falls apart after launch.

Question 8

Why work with a Hong Kong studio instead of a cheaper overseas team?

Accepted Answer

Overseas quotes can look lower, then time zones and rework eat the saving. A Hong Kong studio works in your hours, in English and Traditional Chinese, and can change course the same week. That matters when operations cannot wait.

Question 9

How should I choose a software partner in Hong Kong?

Accepted Answer

Ask who will actually build your product, how scope changes are priced, and what you get at handover. Look for relevant work—SMEs, NGOs, healthcare, or CPA firms—not only a slide deck. A good partner gives a realistic timeline, not only the date you hoped for.

Question 10

Who owns the source code?

Accepted Answer

You do, once agreed fees are paid. Source code, designs, and deliverables transfer to you. The contract states what is yours and what belongs to third-party tools.

Question 11

How do you keep us updated?

Accepted Answer

You get one point of contact, usually weekly check-ins, and demos of working software. We write down decisions, flag risks early, and reply in Hong Kong business hours.

Question 12

Do you support us after launch?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We can stay for maintenance and small improvements, on a retainer or per sprint. We also hand over cleanly—documents and a walkthrough—so your in-house team or another vendor can take over.
