The short answer
A web application is software your team or customers log into through a browser: quoting tools, job trackers, member areas, internal dashboards. Redenn builds them on Next.js, TypeScript and Supabase, scoped to a fixed price with a ship date in the quote, and can host them on the Redenn Dynamic tier or deploy them to your own accounts.
What changes
- A process that lived in spreadsheets and email runs in one place with a login
- Role-based access so staff, customers and admins see only what they should
- Data in a managed Postgres database you can export whenever you like
- A codebase that a future developer can read, because it uses mainstream tools
What is included
- Written scope, fixed price and ship date before work starts
- Authentication, roles and permissions
- Postgres database on Supabase with row-level security
- Application UI built in React and Tailwind components
- Staging environment for testing before each release
- Error monitoring, and once paid, the code and every login handed over
How it works
- 01
Discovery
We map the workflow as it happens today, including the exceptions, and list what the first release must do.
- 02
Scope and quote
You receive a written scope, a fixed price and a ship date. Anything outside it is a separate, priced change.
- 03
Build in releases
Working software lands on staging in stages so you can test with real data early.
- 04
Launch and support
Go-live on Redenn Dynamic or Pro Managed hosting, or on your own accounts; monitoring and a support path come with Redenn hosting.
Price
Fixed-price quote with a ship date
Custom web applications with accounts, data and workflows.
Prices are in Canadian dollars and exclude taxes. Any tax that applies is shown separately on your invoice.
Full price listWho this is for
Businesses with a repeatable process that off-the-shelf software handles badly: a dispatcher juggling drivers and loads, a clinic tracking intake forms, a contractor quoting from a price book, a school scheduling lessons.
It is not for an idea that has not been tested with real customers yet. In that case a Launch page and a form can test demand for CA$99 before you spend on software.
What we build
The stack is deliberately mainstream: Next.js for the application, TypeScript throughout, Supabase for Postgres, authentication and file storage, and Vercel for hosting. Row-level security keeps each customer's data separate at the database layer, not just in the interface.
Integrations are common: accounting software, a CRM, email or SMS providers, payment processing. Each is scoped as a named deliverable so the quote is honest about what talks to what.
What it costs
The build is quoted per project. The running cost is the hosting tier plus usage, which each provider bills to your own account.
Prices are in Canadian dollars and exclude taxes. Any tax that applies is shown separately on your invoice.
Usage (AI, call minutes, SMS, email) is billed by each provider directly to your own account; none is included in our prices. Ask about a trial period to see your real usage first.
| Item | Price | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Application build | Quote | Fixed price and ship date in writing |
| Redenn Dynamic hosting | CA$49/month | Managed database, authentication, API hosting, error monitoring |
| Redenn Pro Managed hosting | CA$99/month | Adds staging, advanced monitoring, database management, priority support |
| Enterprise hosting | Quote | Dedicated infrastructure, SLAs, compliance requirements |
| Usage | Billed by each provider to your account | SMS, call minutes, email, AI and external APIs; none is included in the hosting price |
Limitations and honest notes
A fixed price only works with a fixed scope. We will push back on vague requirements before quoting, because that protects you from a project that never ends.
If an established SaaS product already does most of what you need, buy it. Custom software makes sense when the part it misses is where your business makes its money.
PIPEDA governs how businesses handle personal information in their commercial activities across Canada. Quebec, Alberta and British Columbia have their own private-sector privacy laws, recognized as substantially similar, which apply inside those provinces. PIPEDA still applies there to federally regulated businesses, such as banks, telecoms and interprovincial trucking, and to information that crosses provincial or national borders. This is general information, not legal advice. We build sensible defaults, but the privacy policy and consent process are your responsibility.
Questions
How do you price a web application?
By written scope. After discovery you receive a fixed price and a ship date. Changes after that are priced separately.
Can you build on our existing database or software?
Often, yes. If there is a documented API or a database we can connect to safely, we scope the integration as a named deliverable.
Who owns the code and the accounts?
You do, once the project is paid. Your domain is registered in your name from the start. At handover you get the code and every login, or we keep managing the accounts for you on a paid plan. If you ever move to another developer, you take everything with you.
How long does a web application take?
It depends on scope, which is why the ship date is in the quote. Small internal tools can ship in weeks; multi-role customer-facing systems take longer.
