About this service

Summary

Your application will be built using Bubble, a no-code platform that provides a fully integrated frontend, backend, and database. It will include a visually designed UI, dynamic workflows to handle business logic, and a secure, scalable database with built-in user authentication. Additionally, the app will feature a REST API for external integrations, ensuring seamless connectivity with third-party services.

Process

Engagement & Delivery Process for Bubble Web App Prototypes
1. Discovery & Proposal (Initial Engagement)
• Intro Call (30-45 min): We’ll discuss your project goals, target users, and key features to ensure alignment with your business needs.
• Scope & Proposal: I’ll provide a detailed project outline, including timelines, milestones, and cost estimates.
• Agreement: Once approved, we’ll sign a simple service agreement to kick off the project.
2. Planning & Prototype Design (1-2 Weeks)
• Workflow & Database Planning: I’ll design the app’s data structure and workflows to ensure efficiency and scalability.
• Wireframes & UI/UX (Optional): If needed, I’ll create wireframes or UI mockups to visualize key features before development.
• Client Review: You’ll review the initial design and provide feedback before moving to development.
3. Development in Bubble (2-4 Weeks)
• No-Code Rapid Development: Using Bubble’s visual builder, I’ll create a fully functional prototype with custom workflows, dynamic data, and user authentication.
• API Integrations & Automations: I’ll connect third-party services (e.g., payment systems, CRM, or external APIs) as needed.
• Progress Updates: Regular check-ins (weekly or bi-weekly) to ensure transparency and alignment.
4. Testing & Iteration (1 Week)
• Internal Testing: I’ll validate core functionalities, data flows, and security settings.
• Client Feedback & Revisions: You’ll test the prototype and provide feedback for final refinements.
5. Final Handoff & Deployment
• Documentation & Training: I’ll provide easy-to-follow documentation and, if needed, a brief training session on managing your Bubble app.
• Deployment: We can launch the app on Bubble’s hosting or migrate to a custom domain.
• Ongoing Support (Optional): I offer post-launch maintenance and updates as needed.
Timeline: ~4-6 weeks (varies based on project scope)
Result: A scalable, functional Bubble web app prototype, ready for user testing, feedback, and future iterations.

I worked with Ben on a variety of projects as a Product manager for Recovery.com (formerly RehabPath). The projects mostly focused on our advertising software, integrating with a 3rd party software into our core product, as well as improving performance on the site. Ben did quality work, but more importantly, he directly collaborated with owners side-by-side in person, to implement the correct approach and talk through details.

Ben has been great to work with. I have especially appreciated his attention to detail and honest, forthright opinions. As a small business owner, it is important to have critical input that does not just tell you what you want to hear. I would highly recommend Ben.

Ben led the integration of our MEWS property management software with an AWS RDS database, enabling nightly data transfers to support business intelligence functions. The project involved navigating poor third-party documentation and a changing API environment. Through technical expertise, problem-solving, and proactive communication, Ben delivered a stable, scalable solution. Ben has delivered reliability, adaptability, and professionalism across multiple projects for us.

We've worked with Ben for over a year to design, build, launch, and scale our software platform. Ben has been a foundational member of our early team - his project management skills, communication, and collaboration are all top notch. Ben is knowledgeable about the business needs we have and is able to iteratively work with me to not simply build any technology I ask, but helps balance how customers will interact with things.
