What's the investment for a custom app or CRM?

Custom builds start from R20,000 for CRMs and R35,000 for apps. Book a free strategy call and we'll map exactly what your business needs — no obligation, no pressure.

Do you work with startups and enterprises?

Both. We've shipped fuel delivery platforms for logistics companies and AI tools for early-stage founders. If the project demands precision and conversion focus, we're the right team.

What do I need to provide?

A discovery call, your brand assets (or we design them), and clear feedback at each milestone. We handle architecture, design, development, and deployment.

Do you use AI in your process?

Yes — to move faster on the parts that don't need a human. Strategy, design direction, and every line of production code are handcrafted. Every output is custom-built for your business.

You do. Full source code ownership transfers to you upon final payment. No lock-in, no hidden licensing.

How we work

From brief to launch — no surprises.

Discovery

Goals, users, competitors, and conversion targets — locked before a single pixel moves.

Phase 02

Design

High-fidelity Figma prototypes. You approve the direction before we write code.

Phase 03

Build

Production code, tested on real devices. Weekly demos so nothing surprises you.

Phase 04

Launch

Deploy, analytics wired, handover complete. You own every line of source code.

Investment

Build something your clients will remember.

We don't build for invoices — we build so African businesses look world-class to the people who matter.

Whether you need a website, an app, or a full digital product, VILATECH is where founders come when ordinary is not an option.
