The Problem
Some problems are too specific for off-the-shelf software but too small for a full development project.
Many businesses have small technical problems that are too specific for off-the-shelf software but too limited to justify a large development project. Teams often need a script, utility, internal tool, API helper, data transformation, or proof of concept that solves one painful problem quickly and cleanly. This sprint focuses on one defined deliverable so the work stays practical, bounded, and valuable.

Who This Is For
For businesses with one specific, well-defined software need
This offer is for businesses that have a specific, well-defined software need and want a practical solution without starting a large development engagement. It is best for internal tools, scripts, small utilities, lightweight integrations, and proof-of-concept work.
This is not for businesses looking to build a full SaaS product, large customer-facing application, or long-term software platform in one sprint.
Examples of good-fit deliverables
Pricing note: Pricing shown is starting pricing for standard-scope engagements. Final pricing depends on complexity, number of systems involved, data sensitivity, testing requirements, infrastructure needs, urgency, and any requested work outside the standard scope.
This starter engagement is intentionally scoped to produce one useful software outcome without turning into an open-ended development project. If the request is larger, more complex, or requires ongoing support, SullySoft can provide a separate estimate before any additional work begins.
