24 questions, answered the way we would answer them on a call.

Most first builds are fixed-price in the low thousands, delivered in one to three weeks. Larger builds (operational platforms, prototypes, client portals) run higher, and ongoing operating support is a separate monthly figure. Every price is built the same way: the hours the work takes, the tools it runs on, and a share of company cost. It is agreed before work starts and does not move. The pricing page shows the full arithmetic.

Structure, not corner-cutting. We are a US company with a distributed team and no office, sales floor, or delivery-manager tier, so the overhead built into an hour is smaller. What does not change is the standard: work is reviewed, tested, and documented, it lands in your repository, and the engineer who scoped it is the one who builds it.

It is usually not either/or. A job posting is a list of tasks, and some of those tasks are rules rather than judgment; those are software. Automating them costs less than the first month of the salary and does not resign. The seat still gets filled; it just starts further along, doing the part that needs a person.

No. Send the bottleneck, take the one-page first move, and stop there if you want. A build is a build. Monthly support exists only where a running system needs an owner, and it can be cancelled.

You do. Code lands in your repository, systems run in your accounts, and documentation comes with the handoff. If we stop working together, everything keeps running without us.

Yes. The work page carries the case pages and every figure with its source, and a client's own site is linked wherever we have confirmed the site is theirs. Most of the rest was delivered under confidentiality or white-label terms, so tell us what kind of work you want to see and we will send relevant examples, with the client's permission where it is needed.

Then we say so. Plenty of enquiries end with a recommendation to leave the process alone: a tolerated annoyance is often cheaper than a system.

Every figure on the site is read from one content register with its source and the period it covers, and the build checks every rendered page against a list of claims that may not be published before a deploy can proceed. The sources page explains each kind of source, from a dashboard export to a statement by an operating team, and the evidence register lists every figure in one filterable list.

Three different reasons, each stated on the record it applies to: an agreement withholds the name, the work shipped under another firm's brand, or the client has not yet confirmed in writing that we may publish it. A named client with no recorded permission would be a claim we cannot back, so the sector and the shape of the work are published and the identity is not.

A figure the team operating a system states that no export yet substantiates. It is published as exactly that, with its own label, so a reader can filter it out of the register. The peak throughput of the hotel data system is one: the number is the operating team's, the logged window that would make it a measurement is not attached yet, and the record says so.

Every quote in the ledger is marked as needing the client's permission, and none is recorded. Until one is, the site quotes nobody. What it publishes instead are outcomes that need no permission: a fixed-price build converted to a retainer, clients who signed a second contract, the longest retainer, and the marketplace standing.

Ask. Our own engineering is screen-shared with anyone seriously evaluating us: the code, the architecture, the tests. Client systems are walked through with the client's permission where it is needed. Nothing restricted is linked from a public page, which is why every restricted record carries a request link rather than a dead end.

Qelv is a US company with a distributed team: Qelv LLC, registered in Wyoming, and Registered in Islamabad Capital Territory (ICT). Work has been delivered into 13 countries, the US, the UK, Canada, Switzerland, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Singapore, Australia, Denmark, Mexico, Lithuania, South Africa and Pakistan.

One founder, who owns the company and leads every engagement, with senior engineers placed on projects that need more hands. His background, the two other businesses he runs, and the timeline of the work are on the about page.

No. Qelv builds software, data pipelines and automations. It also puts engineers on teams. Growth work exists as one of five practices because a site, a catalog and a follow-up system are software problems with a measurable demand behind them, and the search figures on the site are published as dashboard exports with their windows, not as the point of the business.
