Start with the problem

What does the business need to do better?

No technical specification is required to get started. Describe the business problem or opportunity, and the simplest sensible solution can be scoped from there.

Look more credible online

The current website feels outdated, unclear, slow, or does not turn visitors into inquiries.

Typical solution

A focused business or product website with clear messaging and lead capture.

Sell a product or service

Customers need a straightforward way to discover, purchase, subscribe, or pay online.

Typical solution

An ecommerce experience with payments, customer email, and simple administration.

Reduce repetitive work

Important information is scattered across spreadsheets, inboxes, and disconnected services.

Typical solution

An internal tool, dashboard, integration, or automated workflow.

Launch a digital product

An idea needs accounts, payments, data, administration, and a reliable path to launch.

Typical solution

A web or cross-platform app built around the first useful release.

Websites, payments, customer accounts, admin tools, and connected apps can work as one practical system—with one partner responsible for keeping it useful.

Launch it—and stop worrying about it.

Care plans keep the technical details handled in one place, with a direct response whenever something needs attention.

Frequently asked questions

Useful answers before reaching out.

How much will a project cost?

Pricing depends on scope, integrations, content, and complexity. After the requirements are understood, the proposal states a fixed build price before work begins. The budget range on the estimate form helps identify the right-sized approach.

How long will it take?

The timeline is agreed during scoping and included in the proposal. A focused website is much faster than a product with accounts, payments, and custom administration; important deadlines can be shared in the estimate request.

What do clients need to provide?

A clear business goal is enough to begin. Existing brand assets, copy, product details, and system access are helpful when available, and missing content or structure can be worked through during planning.

What happens after launch?

Managed care can include hosting, SSL, backups, uptime monitoring, security updates, content edits, fixes, and future improvements. Normal hosting usage is included, with any overages discussed clearly.

Who actually works on the project?

Founder Daniel Beatty handles the project directly, from planning and development through launch and support. Messages receive a response within one business day.

Do you work with WordPress?

No. Floating Dev focuses on modern custom websites and applications rather than new or existing WordPress projects.
