MVPs & new products
Go from idea to a launched first version that people can sign up for and use. We help you decide what belongs in version one, then build it so later versions can extend it.

Our work
Products we've designed, built, and shipped.
We run our own products in production, so we know what it takes to launch software and keep it running. Every product here was built in-house by the same team you'd work with.

SquadPact
Scheduling, RSVPs, chat, and payments for adult soccer leagues.
- The problem
- Volunteer team managers were spending hours each week copy-pasting schedules from league websites into group chats, then chasing RSVPs and dues by hand.
- What we built
- One app for web, iOS, and Android. Per-league scrapers pull in schedules, rosters, and results automatically. Players RSVP in one tap, chat with their team, and pay dues by Stripe, Venmo, Cash App, Zelle, or PayPal. A scheduled season lifecycle moves every team through commitment, recruiting, payment, and active phases on its own.
- The result
- Schedules, rosters, and results now update automatically, which removes the weekly copy-paste work for team managers.

Who you'll work with
Nate White
Founder & Lead Engineer
“You work directly with the engineer writing your code, from the first call through launch.”
I started Veltarium to build software for clients the same way I build my own products: a clear scope, a price agreed up front, and regular releases. I worked on every product on this site, from the database schema to the App Store listing.

FAQ
Before you reach out.
Have another question? Email contact@veltarium.com and you'll hear back from the engineer who would build your project.
What kinds of projects do you take on?
New product builds, feature work on existing codebases, rescues of stalled projects, AI features, and ongoing development partnerships. We cover web, iOS, Android, backend, and deployment, so one team handles the whole project.
How do you price projects?
Defined projects get a fixed scope and a fixed price. Ongoing or open-ended work runs on a simple monthly arrangement. Either way, you'll know the cost before any work begins.
Can you add AI to an existing product?
Yes. We integrate models like Claude and GPT into existing apps for smart search, document processing, support assistants, and workflow automation. If a simpler approach would solve the problem better, we'll recommend it up front.
Do you work with non-technical founders?
Yes. We'll turn your idea into a clear scope, explain trade-offs in plain language, and walk you through each technical decision before it's made.
What does communication look like during a project?
You work directly with the engineer building your product. Expect a demo of working software at every milestone and regular updates in whatever channel you prefer.
Who owns the code?
You do. Everything we build for you is yours, including the source code, the designs, and the infrastructure. Work lives in your repositories from day one.
How quickly can we start?
Usually within a week or two. Send a short description of your project and we'll set up a discovery call.
