Before we work together.
Clear answers about fit, cost, risk, and what remains in your control.
Is this for us?
Is Qartivus the right fit for us?
Qartivus is a strong fit when software shapes how the work actually gets done—and you need clearer decisions, someone accountable for the engineering, or control of a system that has become difficult to change. You do not need to be a tech company. We work with founders, small and growing businesses, operational teams, and technical teams.
Do we need a technical team or a finished specification?
No. Bring the business problem, the current situation, and what needs to improve. We turn that into options you can understand and a defined scope before asking you to commit to a build.
My salon, café, or shop already runs well. What can Qartivus actually add?
That is a strong starting point. We do not come to replace what works. We look for the friction that costs time without always being visible: missed appointments, repetitive admin, tools that do not talk to each other, customers who are never followed up, numbers that are hard to read, or a business that depends too much on one person. The right answer may be a small automation, a connection between your tools, a clearer view of the work—or no new system at all. Every change has to earn its place.
Can you build a first product or MVP?
Yes, when the first version is designed to test a real assumption rather than imitate a finished product. We identify what must be learned, build only what supports that learning, and leave a sound path forward.
What kinds of systems do you work on?
Custom platforms, products, internal tools, integrations, inherited systems, and the operational software around a real business—booking, follow-up, reporting, or connecting tools you already use. The common thread is software that has to hold up in daily work, not only in a demo.
Where do we begin?
Can you take over an existing or unfinished system?
Yes. We first establish what is actually there: architecture, dependencies, risks, deployment, and missing knowledge. Then we recommend whether to stabilize, extend, replace in stages, or stop investing in it.
How do you decide between repair and rebuild?
We compare credible paths against risk, cost of change, business continuity, structural debt, and future needs. Rebuilding is not the default. The recommendation should be explainable before it becomes expensive. See Code Rescue.
What happens first?
We map what exists, what is blocked, what matters now, and what cannot be put at risk. If there is a sensible fit, we define the next step and its boundaries in writing.
How much will it cost?
That depends on the problem and the uncertainty around it. We do not hide uncertainty inside a confident number. You receive a written scope, price, deliverables, assumptions, and exclusions before substantial engineering begins.
How long will it take?
After the situation is understood, we give you a delivery range and its assumptions. Larger work is divided into reviewable stages so you can make decisions before the entire budget is committed.
How will we work?
Can you work with our current team or supplier?
Yes. We can work alongside internal engineers, product owners, designers, or another supplier. Responsibilities and decision ownership are made explicit so collaboration does not create a new layer of confusion.
Can we work remotely and across time zones?
Yes. Qartivus is based in Tunisia and works remotely across Europe, the GCC, and North Africa. Work can be communicated and documented in English, French, or Hungarian.
How does Qartivus use AI?
AI may accelerate parts of the work, but it does not replace engineering judgment or accountability. We do not ship code nobody can explain, verify, maintain, or own.
How will we know what is happening?
Important decisions are recorded with their reasoning and tradeoffs. You receive concise written updates tied to outcomes, risks, and next decisions—not activity for its own sake.
What stays in our control?
Who owns the code, data, and accounts?
You do. Agreed deliverables, project data, repositories, and infrastructure access remain under your control. We design handover from the beginning rather than using dependency as a retention strategy.
How are security and confidentiality handled?
Security is treated as a design constraint, proportionate to the system and its risks. Access, credentials, data exposure, dependencies, and deployment are considered throughout the work. We can sign an NDA before sensitive details are shared.
What happens after delivery?
You receive the agreed documentation, access, and handover. We can stay involved, support your team, or step away. Continued dependence on Qartivus is never a hidden requirement.
Can we start without sharing everything?
Yes. The first conversation can stay at business level. We only ask for access or sensitive detail when necessary to assess the next step, and confidentiality can be formalized first.
Not sure where your situation fits?
You do not need to diagnose it first. Show us where things stand.
