Side by Side
What Gets Discovered Late
Issues that rarely show up in the first estimate and tend to surface after launch.
Which Is Right for You
Custom development fits when
Your operating model differs from every standard delivery or mobility pattern
The platform itself is the product you plan to sell or license
You have an in-house engineering team to build and maintain it long term
DeliveryStack fits when
You run one of the five supported verticals
You want to launch in weeks and test demand in a first city
You would rather spend budget on customisation that differentiates you
Questions
Is DeliveryStack cheaper than custom development? +
For standard delivery and mobility models, usually yes, because the core is already built. Customisation is quoted separately, so the difference depends on how much of your platform is unique.
Can DeliveryStack be customised as much as a custom build? +
Custom features can be built on top of the core and are quoted per scope. Where your requirements depart from the core entirely, a custom build may be the better fit, and we will tell you so.
Do I get the source code? +
Ownership and licensing terms depend on the engagement and are set out in your proposal.
