# Software development and AI services

We design and build custom software, from websites and e-commerce platforms to MVPs. We also scale your team with vetted engineers through staff augmentation, and help you pinpoint where AI will actually move the needle for your business.

## Where to start

These are the requests we get most often, and the service that fits each one.

- I have an idea and want to try it with real users → [MVPs](https://www.tupaca.com/en/services/mvp)
- I need a system built around the way we work → [Platforms and systems](https://www.tupaca.com/en/services/custom-software-development/platforms-and-systems)
- I want to sell online with a store of my own → [Ecommerce platforms](https://www.tupaca.com/en/services/ecommerce)
- I need an app for my customers or my team → [Mobile apps](https://www.tupaca.com/en/services/custom-software-development/mobile-app-development)
- The company needs a new website → [Websites and landing pages](https://www.tupaca.com/en/services/custom-software-development/website-development)
- My team is short on developers → [Staff augmentation](https://www.tupaca.com/en/services/staff-augmentation)
- I want to use AI and don't know where to begin → [AI consulting](https://www.tupaca.com/en/services/ai)

## What we do

AI consulting, custom development or talent for your team: three ways to work with us, often combined in a single project.

### [AI consulting](https://www.tupaca.com/en/services/ai)

We pick one of your company's processes and go through it with your team. Within 3 business days you get an AI Opportunity Map showing what's worth automating and what isn't. If we then build it together, the Map's cost is credited toward the project.

## Frequently asked questions

**What's the difference between staff augmentation and custom software development?**
With staff augmentation, the people we add work inside your team and your managers run their day-to-day. With custom development, we run the project: we put the team together, plan the work, and show you progress at every release.

**When should I build an MVP, and when custom software?**
If the idea hasn't been tested yet, start with an MVP: it takes 14 days and costs USD 3,000, and it tells you whether people actually use it. If you already know the product works, or it's replacing something your company uses today, go straight to custom development. Often the MVP ends up being the starting point for the full build.

**Can I combine services?**
Yes, and it happens a lot. Some MVPs turn into full custom builds, some AI consulting engagements end in an implementation, and some projects bring in staff augmentation roles as the workload grows.

**Do you work with companies outside Argentina?**
Yes. We work with companies across Latin America and invoice in US dollars.

**How do we get started?**
We set up a free call to understand what you need. Usually within 48 hours we send you a proposal with scope, timeline and price. If it works for you, we get started.
