Technical Capabilities

We build across software, hardware, and AI-enabled systems

Software + Hardware Prototypes

Functional prototype systems that combine hardware, software, and technical validation for grant applications.

AI-Enabled Technical Systems

AI-enabled workflows, components, or system logic when the grant scope requires intelligent processing or automation.

Unity Simulation & Interactive Demos

Simulation, visualization, and interactive technical demos that help communicate feasibility and functionality to reviewers.

How It Works

We handle the technical scope and build, and can also help write grant applications as an optional add-on.

Every project starts with a technical roadmap and scope review.

01

Book Call

Share your grant program, deadline, and technical requirements.

02

Get Your Roadmap & Scope

Receive a technical roadmap, scope review, and pricing aligned to your grant.

03

We Build

Our team delivers your prototype or validation system on schedule.

04

Submit a Stronger Application

Use our deliverables to strengthen the technical sections of your grant.

Grant writing help is available as an optional add-on and is scoped during your discovery call. Our core packages focus on technical scoping, roadmaps, prototypes, and fixed-price development.

Technical Packages & Custom Scopes for Grant Applications

Fixed package pricing when your project fits. Custom roadmap and quote when it doesn't.

Affirm

Flexible payments available with Affirm

Pay over time with Affirm for eligible projects.

Pricing depends on technical requirements, complexity, components, testing needs, and timeline. If your project fits one of our standard packages, we will recommend fixed package pricing. If not, we will provide a custom technical roadmap and quote.

More complex software, hardware, or AI-enabled builds typically start from $75k.

Why This Strengthens Your Application

Reviewers need technical proof, not just ideas

Stronger technical sections reduce perceived execution risk

Early feasibility makes your proposal more credible

Fixed-price delivery helps budget planning

Technical depth can improve reviewer confidence

Where Our Work Fits in Your Grant

NIH / SBIR Health

Technical builds for healthcare applications—software prototypes, hardware systems, AI-enabled diagnostics, and validation work for medical device, therapy, and diagnostic grants.

NSF / Deep Tech

Software, hardware, and AI-enabled development for STEM, education, and technology innovation—technical proof for feasibility studies and early-stage R&D.

DoD / Defense

Validation systems, training platforms, and technical builds—Unity-based simulation, visualization, hardware-in-loop, and mission-critical technical work.

Roadmap First. Package If It Fits.

Every project starts with a technical roadmap. Fixed package pricing when scope fits. Custom quote when it doesn't.

Package Pricing

Fixed-price packages when your scope matches. No hourly rates, no overruns.

Grant-Timed

We plan sprints around your submission deadlines.

Custom Roadmaps

For complex hardware or larger scopes, we provide a custom roadmap and quote.

Larger software, hardware, and AI-enabled builds

Complex multi-system builds, AI-enabled components, and advanced simulation or visualization typically start from $75k.

Example Deliverables

What you receive when you work with us

Technical Scope Document

Scope definition, build plan, and implementation outline for the proposed technical work. Clearly structured for reviewer clarity.

System Architecture & Diagrams

Reviewer-friendly technical diagrams, system logic visuals, and integration structure that demonstrate feasibility.

Prototype, Simulation & Demo Output

Prototype assets, validation outputs, Unity-based simulation, visualization, or interactive demo materials when relevant to the scope.

All deliverables are structured to support grant review criteria and strengthen your technical narrative.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you write grant applications?

Yes. We help write grant applications as an optional add-on service discussed during the discovery call. Our core work includes technical scope, roadmaps, prototypes, and supporting technical materials.

Do you only work on hardware?

No. We support technical scopes across software, hardware, and mixed systems. When useful, we also build AI-enabled components and Unity-based simulations, visualizations, or interactive demos.

Do you offer Unity development?

Yes, when it supports the grant scope. We use Unity for simulation, visualization, interactive demos, and technical interfaces where those assets help communicate feasibility or functionality.

Are your packages always fixed price?

Our standard packages are fixed-price when the scope fits the package requirements. For more complex technical needs, custom hardware, AI-enabled systems, or broader system builds, we provide a roadmap-based custom quote. Larger scopes typically start from $75k.

How do you decide whether my project fits a package?

We review your technical requirements, timeline, complexity, and submission goals. If your scope matches one of our standard package structures, we will recommend package pricing. If not, we will outline a custom roadmap and quote.

Can you work before submission?

Yes. Many teams bring us in before submission to define scope, build feasibility assets, and strengthen the technical section.

What grant programs do you support?

We commonly support teams applying to SBIR, NIH, NSF, and DoD-related programs.

Can you support regulated projects?

Yes. We have experience with healthcare, STEM, and compliance-aware technical work.

What if my deadline is close?

Share your deadline in the form. We will quickly assess fit, feasibility, and timeline.

Get Your Technical Scope for a Grant

Tell us whether your project needs software, hardware, AI-enabled components, simulation, visualization, or interactive demos. We will assess fit and recommend a package or custom roadmap.

Every project begins with a roadmap and scope review. If your requirements fit a package, you will receive fixed package pricing. If not, we will recommend a custom roadmap and quote.
