Our experience

IAGON

IAGON

Worked on a decentralized data storage service on Cardano, where users earn by sharing free space on their devices. The project held an IDO raising $3.6 million.

How we will
proceed

How we will
proceed

Gather the requirements

1–2 days
Define the task, objectives and a desired outcome. If we have enough data, we will assemble a project team and start the estimation process.
If you are not sure that your requirements are comprehensive enough, we will help to generate all the necessary data during the Discovery phase.
1

Conduct Discovery, draft Technical Assignment

3 days to 1–2 weeks depending on the project
The Business Analyst will work through the key issues with you: «Who are the potential users?», «What capabilities does each user need?», etc.
Based on the obtained data, we will form functional requirements that are necessary to start the development.
Our designer will make service prototypes as requested. This will help to work through the non-obvious issues, make sure that we understood the task correctly and did not miss a single thing. You will review the content and modify it if necessary. Based on the prototypes the developers will estimate the outstanding scope of work and prioritize the functions of the future service more precisely.
If you need to stick to budget or terms, we will offer a Fixed-Price model. If you are ready to adjust to the changing requirements — Time & Material model will be the optimal choice

Estimate the terms and cost of work

3 days to 1–2 weeks depending on the project
Based on the available data, the developers will estimate the duration of work. A designer may join the estimation process if design is needed. Finally, you will receive a detailed table of tasks with an estimation of each task in hours.
2

Coordinate the cost and work format

1–3 days
Define the most comfortable way of communication and payment.
We will introduce you to the Project Manager and developers. The rates of each developer depend on the grade according to our Developer Roadmap. The Manager will advise you on every particular engineer.
We will define the terms and results you will get.
3

Sum up and start the development

1–3 days
The Project Manager will be in touch with you end to end.
While we’re taking stock, our developers will have everything set up and start making things happen.
4

Work and payment formats

We’ll deliver everything turnkey, strengthen your team, or jump in for specific tasks — we’ll choose the best option together based on your needs. Payment terms are flexible as well: we’ll select a format that feels comfortable and predictable for you.

Outsourcing

We handle the entire project: from architecture to release.

You get the result, we take responsibility.

Outstaffing

We integrate our specialists into your team for the required period.

They adapt to your rhythm, processes, and work culture.

IT Consulting

We help solve technically complex issues.

We provide a clear plan and help with implementation.

Time & Material (T&M)

You pay for the actual work completed.

Convenient when tasks change along the way, especially in startups.

Retainer

You get a fixed amount of support every month.

Perfect for steady product development.

Fixed Price

We fix the scope, timeline, and budget in advance.

Works best when the tasks or budget are already clearly defined.

FAQ

What are the benefits of developing on Cardano?
Developing on Cardano offers several benefits, including scalability, interoperability with other blockchains, enhanced security through formal methods and peer-reviewed research, and a vibrant ecosystem supported by the Cardano Foundation, IOHK, and Emurgo.
What programming languages are used for Cardano development?
Cardano development primarily involves using the Haskell programming language for core protocol development and Plutus for smart contract development. Additionally, developers may use JavaScript or TypeScript for building front-end applications and tools.
For which industries is Cardano suitable?
It is particularly useful in decentralized finance (DeFi) for secure and transparent financial transactions, as well as in supply chain management for enhancing transparency and traceability. Additionally, Cardano’s interoperability features make it applicable in areas like identity verification, voting systems, and healthcare data management.
How does Cardano support interoperability with other blockchains?
Cardano aims to achieve interoperability with other blockchains through its research-driven approach and adherence to open standards. We can utilize Cardano’s sidechains and interoperability protocols to facilitate seamless communication and asset transfer between different blockchain networks.
