Get custom software that fits your workflows, connects your systems and grows with your business. Through the Delivery Plan, you get one team, one predictable monthly price and one prioritised backlog. Add mobile, web, AI, data, QA or DevOps work to the same backlog whenever you need it.
Use your plan for custom software development.
Trusted by engineering leaders at ambitious startups, enterprises and global brands.
Goals break down into tasks. Milestones are agreed before work begins. You track every service, integration and release from requirement to production, and the next task starts the moment one ships.
Your backlog can hold any number of requests, but the team delivers them one workstream at a time. A workstream is one managed team working on your highest-priority request until it is live, then starting the next. More requests mean more months, not faster delivery. Work is scoped and delivered within your plan’s capacity. Priorities can change; additional parallel workstreams require more capacity. The same plan covers mobile, web, AI, data, QA and DevOps work, so all of it can share one backlog.
A sample MVP schedule. It matches the 1 to 2 weeks of discovery and the 3 to 6 months an MVP typically takes; mid-sized applications take 6 to 12 months. Onboarding starts immediately after checkout, and your delivery owner scopes your own plan with you.
Software tailored to business processes that off-the-shelf tools do not fit. For a business that has outgrown spreadsheets and basic tools for payroll, HR, IT service management and inventory, and needs software that automates workflows, integrates systems and handles growth.
New products from discovery to launch: design, architecture, development, QA and deployment for MVPs, new digital products or entire platforms when the internal team is at capacity, with working software every two weeks.
Software that must connect to legacy systems, ERPs, CRMs, payment processors or proprietary databases: REST and GraphQL integrations, webhook and event-driven architectures, legacy connectors (SOAP, XML, EDI) and data migration and synchronisation.
Architecture decisions made now shape delivery speed for years. Architecture reviews, system design and technical strategy for teams that scale from MVP to enterprise: distributed systems, microservices, API design, data architecture and cloud infrastructure.
Production systems that are not actively maintained become the bottleneck. Maintenance, security patching, dependency management and structured technical debt reduction, with debt tracked as a first-class delivery metric.
Every Delivery Plan · Core comes with the full software team and the tooling around it: discovery, architecture, engineering, AI-powered QA and release work, run by one delivery owner.
Your team, its AI agents and your delivery data sit on one governed platform. That is what powers your delivery board, the QA and code-review agents, and the talent bench behind your plan.
Backend, frontend and integration engineers and architects from the Scrums.com bench, with seniority matched to the complexity of your system.
The QA, code-review and analytics agents that run alongside your team, plus the MCP servers and models they use.
Environments, data and AI infrastructure, deployable from the catalog with your $500 first-month credits.
Custom software needs discovery, architecture, backend, frontend, QA and release work. Hiring covers them one role at a time. The Delivery Plan covers them in one monthly price.
Real-time sprint tracking, automated DORA metrics and tool integration with Jira, GitHub, GitLab, Azure DevOps and Slack.
One plan price for discovery, architecture, build and testing. Your scope sets the number of months.
QA, code review, sprint coaching and analytics agents remove repetitive work. AI amplifies engineers; it does not replace them.
AI-powered risk detection flags blockers before they become critical.
Two-week sprints with end-of-sprint demos, not one reveal at the end of the project.
SOC 2, PCI DSS, HIPAA and GDPR standards from day one, with audit trails and access controls.
Teams are matched to your domain, built for FinTech, banking, insurance, healthcare, SaaS and logistics, across your systems of record and your cloud.
One Delivery Plan · Core covers your development priorities across services. Start with custom software, then queue web, mobile, AI, data or QA scopes on the same backlog, or describe your own.
Automate invoices, payments, customers, journals, or reconciliation data between your systems and an accounting platform. Finish state: the books updating themselves for the defined flows.
Investor-grade technical due diligence on a target codebase and team: AI-powered code analysis plus expert review of architecture, security, scalability, and engineering process — delivered as an investor-ready report on deal timelines.
Reduce response times for a defined set of APIs using profiling-led query, caching, code, and infrastructure changes.
Profile and reduce excessive memory and CPU usage that drives instability, cost, or latency in a defined service.
Move asynchronous work into reliable queues, workers, retries, and scheduled jobs, tuned for throughput. Finish state: async work running on durable infrastructure instead of request threads and cron hope.
Compare custom build, SaaS, open-source, and platform options with TCO, risk, and implementation trade-offs. Ends with a defensible recommendation.
Implement application, CDN, database, or distributed caching for a defined high-read or latency-sensitive workload — with invalidation designed first.
Build structured intake, assignment, workflow, notes, evidence, status, and resolution for a defined case type.
Connect an application to a CRM for defined contact, company, lead, deal, or activity workflows. Finish state: the defined workflows syncing reliably between product and CRM.
Build a purpose-specific relationship and pipeline application where off-the-shelf CRM workflows are insufficient.
Build a reusable integration layer for multiple third-party systems with shared mappings, credentials, retries, and monitoring. Finish state: integrations as a platform capability, not point-to-point spaghetti.
Implement a dedicated CIAM foundation — registration, login, tokens, profiles, federation, MFA, and consent — for your customer-facing product.
Core costs Was $8,000£6,700R140,000 now $4,500£3,750R79,000/month for one active workstream. Your software’s scope determines the delivery schedule and total cost. You can use the same subscription for other development priorities.
Best for companies whose workflows, integrations or compliance needs do not fit off-the-shelf tools.
Work is scoped and delivered within your plan’s capacity. Priorities can change; additional parallel workstreams require more capacity.

Delivery Plan · Core costs Was $8,000£6,700R140,000 now $4,500£3,750R79,000 a month, excluding VAT or sales tax. That buys one active workstream with a managed software team. It is monthly delivery capacity, not a fixed price for a complete application, so your scope sets the number of months.
Yes. Delivery Plan · Core covers mobile, web, AI, data, QA and DevOps work as well as custom software development. All of it sits in one prioritised backlog and is delivered within your plan’s capacity, one active workstream at a time. Priorities can change; additional parallel workstreams require more capacity.
Discovery and planning, UX/UI design and architecture, backend, API and frontend engineering, integrations, QA with AI code review, DevOps and zero-downtime launches, security and compliance work, one accountable delivery owner, and maintenance after launch. Every plan includes $500 in AI infrastructure catalog credits in your first month. Annual plans also include $10,000 in specialist services: a technical assessment, a delivery roadmap and CI/CD pipeline setup.
You rank the backlog. Your delivery owner scopes the top request, agrees acceptance criteria with you, and the team delivers it. You can reorder anything that has not started. One request is active at a time on Core; additional parallel workstreams require more capacity.
The clock starts when you confirm scope and give access to your repositories, cloud accounts and CI. Within 48 hours the team has its first code in production in your environment. Within 14 days your first agreed deliverable ships, for example a first working API endpoint or feature on your staging environment. If it does not, your first month is free.
48 hours to first code in production means the first change merged and deployed through your pipeline, counted from the day scope and access are confirmed. 14 days means the deliverable named at kickoff ships within 14 days of that date, or your first month is free. “Thousands of companies” counts organisations that have bought engineering services from Scrums.com since 2012. The 94% client renewal rate, working software every two weeks and the 3 to 6 months for an MVP are the figures the current Scrums.com custom software development page states. 40-60% lower cost is the figure that page states against US and UK agencies; it is not a quote for your scope.
Custom software development designs, builds and deploys software for your business needs, instead of off-the-shelf solutions. It creates bespoke applications, platforms or systems that solve unique challenges, integrate with existing infrastructure and give you a competitive advantage.
MVPs take 3 to 6 months, mid-sized applications 6 to 12 months and enterprise platforms 12 months or more. Two-week sprints mean you see working software every two weeks, not only at the end of the project.
Custom software is built for your business: your workflows, your integrations and your competitive needs. Off-the-shelf software, such as Salesforce, Shopify or SAP, is pre-built for general use cases. Choose custom software when your processes do not fit standard tools, you need deep integrations with legacy systems, your compliance needs are unique, or the software makes you different from your competitors. Choose off-the-shelf software when your needs are common. Custom software used to need a large project budget. The Delivery Plan changes that: you pay one monthly price of Was $8,000£6,700R140,000 now $4,500£3,750R79,000 for one workstream, with no large project quote. AI-assisted delivery on Scrums.com Delivery Plans also makes custom software practical in cases where it used to be too slow or too costly.
Yes. Complex integrations are a specialism: legacy ERP systems, third-party APIs, payment processors, CRMs and proprietary databases, including Salesforce, SAP and Oracle. The team uses REST and GraphQL integrations, webhook and event-driven architectures, legacy connectors (SOAP, XML, EDI) and data migration and synchronisation.
Yes. The team migrates monolithic architectures to microservices, moves on-premise infrastructure to the cloud and replaces outdated codebases with modern stacks, with zero downtime and data integrity.
Automated unit, integration and end-to-end tests run on every commit. AI-powered QA agents catch bugs, security vulnerabilities and performance issues early. Code reviews protect maintainability. Security testing includes penetration tests and vulnerability scans. Real-time DORA metrics on the Scrums.com Platform track deployment frequency, lead time and change failure rate.
SOC 2 Type II, PCI DSS, HIPAA, GDPR and POPIA standards; secure development practices including code reviews, penetration testing and vulnerability scanning; data encryption at rest and in transit; and audit trails and access controls for governance. Engineers are trained in secure coding for regulated industries such as FinTech, banking and healthcare.
You own 100% of the IP. All code, designs and deliverables transfer to you. NDAs and IP assignment agreements are standard practice.
Yes. Many clients start with a discovery phase, a single scope or a pilot, then add workstreams with no penalties, re-contracting or delays. After launch, the same workstream can continue on maintenance, feature iteration and performance work, or scale down to minimal support.
Delivery Plan · Core: one monthly price, one backlog across your development priorities, one active workstream and a managed team for architecture, build, AI-powered QA and zero-downtime launches.
