App rescue
Stuck at 80%? I finish apps too.
LoginPaymentsDomainBack endiPhone / Android
Built something with an AI app builder, a freelancer or on your own, and it's almost there? The login half works, payments aren't connected, the domain won't attach, there's no back end, or it only runs on one kind of phone.
Same pricing, same process. Week one goes to whatever is blocking you.

Build less. Ship sooner.Learn faster.
Most people try to build the whole app, then launch it. Founders who ship do the opposite.
Launch the idea first. Build the smallest useful version, one core use case at a time. Then ship it to real people.
01 · LAUNCH
Define the app, pick three core use cases, design it, and put a real page on the internet.
02 · BUILD 1 · 2 · 3
One complete use case per phase. Not features — use cases. Finished, working, end to end.
03 · SHIP
Polish, secure, deploy, and put it in front of actual humans.
Week 1Launch + Build 1. Your first working version is live.
Next weeksBuild 2 and Build 3, one use case at a time.
ThenShip — polished, secured, in front of real users, then improved one request at a time.
One use case per build phase is the rule that saves you. It stops "while we're in here, we should also add…" from eating the next four months.
How it works
From application to live app in five steps.
- 01
You apply.
Three to five minutes. Tell me what the app should do, who will use it and what you use today. No call needed.
- 02
I review it personally, within 24 hours.
If it's a fit, you get a written first-version scope: your three core use cases and exactly what will be live in 7 days. If it isn't, I tell you straight and you pay nothing.
- 03
$99 starts your build.
LAUNCHCovers the build and your first 2 weeks of service. No proposal, no hourly estimate, no long contract.
- 04
Your first version goes live within 7 days.
BUILD 1A real, working app at a link you can open, use and share. Not a mockup. Not a slide deck.
- 05
It keeps getting better.
BUILD 2 · 3SHIPSend a change request in plain English. I ship it within 7 days, then you send the next one. Bugs are always fixed free and never count as a request.
Setting expectations
Something real in week one.Not everything.
Seven days does not mean the full version of Uber, Airbnb or Salesforce. It means the smallest version of your idea that does the main job — working, and in your hands. We agree on that scope in writing before you pay.
| App | First version · week 1 | Added later, one request at a time |
|---|---|---|
| Lead manager | Lead comes in → saved → you view and update it | Follow-ups, SMS, reports, team access |
| Quote tool | Add customer → enter work → generate and share quote | Deposits, signatures, invoices, reminders |
| Membership app | Sign up → log in → access protected content | Payments, community, messaging, courses |
Big ideas are welcome. They just arrive in weekly pieces instead of one long wait.
Pricing

Third-party costs
Some apps use services that charge for usage: AI features in the live app, SMS, email delivery, maps, payment processing or large-scale hosting. If yours needs one, I tell you the cost before adding it, and you pay the provider directly, in your own name wherever possible. No markup.
You never pay for the AI tools I use to build your app. That's on me.
The rule
Focus is what makes it fast.
One request at a time keeps the price low and the quality high. Each request gets my full attention and ships within a week — instead of twenty half-finished features.
It adds up fast. Four requests a month makes a very different app by month three. Need more speed? That's what Priority is for.

Ownership
You own it. Here's exactly how.
This is the part most "cheap app" offers leave vague. Here it is in plain terms.
Yours from day one
- Your idea, business logic, content and brand
- Your customer data. Export it anytime, free, as often as you like.
- Your domain name, registered in your name
- Your Apple Developer and Google Play accounts, if you have mobile apps
Your source code
While you're on the service, the code lives in my development workspace so I can build, test and deploy it safely. It's written for you, and our agreement covers it as your property.
Free after 8 weeks
The full handoff
After 8 weeks in a row, ask for a full handoff at no charge:
- Complete source code, moved to your own GitHub account
- The database and all files
- Setup notes another developer can follow
- Help moving hosting to an account in your name
Leaving earlier?
You can still take everything. The early handoff fee is $399, which covers packaging and transferring the app properly.
If you cancel without a handoff
You get a full data export, free. Your app stays online for 30 days after your last payment so you have time to decide. Then it winds down.
If I ever stop offering this
Every active customer gets the full handoff free, with at least 30 days' notice. You'll never be left with an app you can't run.
Who is building your app
Val Okafor
Software Architect · Founder, ProntoAppLaunch
I'm a U.S.-based software architect with 14+ years of professional experience and 20+ shipped applications across mobile, web and SaaS. I also build my own products, including Okason, software for landscaping businesses.
Your project is not where I learn how to build software.
I lead the product and technical direction of your app: architecture, scope, quality and delivery. When extra engineering help is useful I may bring it in, but the project stays architect-led and held to the same standards.
Why ProntoAppLaunch
Senior-led. AI-accelerated.Built to last.
14+
Years building production software
More than a decade designing, shipping and maintaining real systems across mobile, web, SaaS and back end.
20+
Shipped apps
Including my own products, like Okason, software for landscaping businesses.
Architect-led, not "vibe coded"
I use modern AI coding agents to move fast inside a real engineering process: clear scope, version control, code review, testing, security checks and proper deployment. That's how a first version lands in days without falling apart in month two.
You talk to the builder
No account managers, no ticket queues. The person who reads your application builds your app and answers your messages. If extra engineering help speeds things up, I may bring it in — but I lead the architecture and quality on every project.
U.S.-based · NDA available before you share anything sensitive
Honest fit check
Is ProntoAppLaunch right for you?
Probably a good fit if you
- Have an app idea you've been sitting on
- Run an important part of your business out of spreadsheets
- Pay for several tools that still don't fit how you work
- Started an app and never got it across the finish line
- Want to test an idea without spending tens of thousands
- Want an experienced builder making the technical calls
Probably not a fit if you
- Expect a complete enterprise platform in 7 days
- Need a large development team right away
- Need heavy regulatory compliance from day one
- Want many features built at once on the Standard plan
If your project isn't a fit, I'll tell you before you pay anything.
Guarantee
Live in 14 days, or your money back.
We agree on your first-version scope in writing before you pay. I aim to have it live within 7 days. If the agreed first version isn't live within 14 days, I refund what you paid. No forms, no argument.
FAQ
Questions, answered.
Is it really $99 to start?
Yes. $99 covers your build and your first 2 weeks. After that it's $49 a week on Standard or $99 on Priority.
How long do I pay $49 a week?
For as long as you want me hosting, maintaining and improving the app. Cancel anytime. There's no annual contract.
Do I really own it, or am I renting it?
You own it. Your data is exportable anytime. Your domain and app-store accounts are in your name from day one. After 8 weeks in a row — or anytime for the $399 early handoff fee — I transfer the full source code, database and files to you.
What happens if I cancel?
Billing stops. You get a free data export, your app stays online for 30 days, and you can take a full handoff if you're eligible, or pay the early handoff fee.
What counts as a "request"?
One change or addition you describe in plain English, like "add a page where customers can book a time" or "let me export leads to a spreadsheet." Bigger ideas get split into a few requests. Bugs never count.
Why three core use cases?
It keeps your app focused and moving. During Launch we pick the three things the app must do. Each is built completely, one per phase, before the next starts. Everything else waits its turn as a request.
Can you build iPhone and Android apps?
Yes. Many first versions start as a web app that works on any phone, because it can be shared with a link right away. If you need a native app, we plan for it. The 7-day promise covers the working first version, not Apple's or Google's review time.
Can you finish an app I already started?
Yes. Tell me what it was built with and what's broken. Your first week goes to whatever is blocking you.
Can you add AI to my app?
Yes, if it genuinely helps. Building it is included. AI usage inside your live app runs on an account in your name, and you pay the provider directly at cost.
Can you sign an NDA?
Yes, before you share any details.
Do I need a call?
No. Start with the application. If something needs clarifying, I'll send a link for a short call.
The app you keep thinking about can be live next week.
No spec needed. No code needed. Just tell me what you want it to do.
