Software Development for Startups

For non-tech startup founders, recruiting for technical roles can be time and budget-intensive. Best software development companies offer the advantages of an in-house team – dedication and industry expertise – minus the hurdles of local hiring and retention challenges. 

By outsourcing software development for your startup to GoodCore, you eliminate the complexities of roadmap planning, strategising the best development approach, and coordinating team members – tasks that are typically managed by you with freelancers or an in-house team. Our full range of software development services for startups covers discovery, technology consultation, and dedicated teams, ensuring effective development strategies and alignment with your overarching goals at every step of the way.

Our software development company for startups focus on the technical development and execution of your product idea. We do not conduct audience and market research. We recommend partnering with specialised market research firms for this part, ensuring that your product is backed by thorough market research. Our team will then integrate these insights into the development process, resulting in a software solution that is well-aligned with your market and audience needs.

Our hybrid model combines an on-shore coordination team and senior management based in the UK with an off-shore development team. Our local team provides direct communication and a deep understanding of the regional business landscape. In our off-shore team, all developers and engineers are proficient English speakers, with a minimum of C1 level English proficiency. This ensures smooth and accurate communication across all stages of your software development life cycle.

Our discovery phase is tailored for clients with non-technical backgrounds. This phase includes interviews and discussions framed in everyday language, focusing on the business side of your idea rather than overwhelming technical details. Our solution teams (comprising a CTO, solution architects, project managers, and business analysts) are skilled in translating complex technical concepts into easily understandable terms, ensuring you're comfortable and engaged throughout the process.

For each software development project, our team employs a requirements elicitation process to gain a comprehensive understanding of the problem your product aims to solve and the customers it targets. During our discovery workshops, we use structured interview frameworks designed to extract these critical insights directly from you. Additionally, if you have conducted any audience and market research, we review these reports thoroughly. By combining your direct input with these research findings, we ensure that our development strategy is tailored to meet the needs of your product and its intended users.

Our startup software development company utilise project management and communication tools to emulate the experience of working closely as if you and our team were sitting around one table. We also ensure a minimum of a 5-hour overlap with your time zone, which facilitates real-time communication and collaboration. This overlap allows for daily updates, immediate responses to queries, and regular live discussions, ensuring that you feel fully integrated and informed at every stage of the process.
