Launch is treated as the finish line
Libraries age. Browsers change. The first real customer finds the edge case nobody tested.
Custom software needs an operator. Hosting, backups, monitoring, security updates, bug fixes, and a path for small improvements are how the product stays a business system rather than a static handover. Maintenance is optional, and it is the natural second phase of the work.

Hosting was 'included' until the certificate expired or the backup was never restored.
Without a monthly rhythm, small improvements wait months and then arrive as expensive mini-projects.
Updates pile up because they are nobody's job. That is not an acceptable state for software that holds customer data.

Ongoing partnership
Launch is the start of a working system, not the end of the relationship. Maintenance covers the operational work that keeps custom software safe and useful. Additional development beyond the plan is billed separately.
$149/month
Keep the software stable, secure, and online.
$299/month
Stability plus a small monthly development allowance.
$599/month
An ongoing product partnership after launch.
Share the workflow, the current tools, and the outcome you need. We will come back with a scoped project estimate — not a generic package.
