Teams we have built software for
Book us if you want an app that meets MODPA's data-minimization rules and passes a client security review, live in about 7 weeks with the code in your name.
Our 16-person in-house engineering team sits in San Francisco with 30+ remote specialists, three hours behind Baltimore and Bethesda, so your afternoons are shared working time. Citi, Spirit Airlines, the Miami Dolphins and Life Line Ambulances have shipped software with us, and every build we publish shows the timeline and outcome.
Apps and software we build for Maryland businesses
Clinics and home-care providers
Bookings come by phone, intake forms are on paper and clinicians are scheduled from a spreadsheet.
A booking and intake app with consent capture, role-based access and route-aware scheduling, like the one that cut Infuse CTL's cancellations from 24% to 7%.
Government contractors and subcontractors
Proposals, teaming partners and staff credentials sit in shared drives, and your prime keeps asking for status by email.
A proposal and staffing tracker with an audit trail, plus a portal where primes see the status they need and nothing more.
Consumer brands and apps for families
Your marketing stack collects more data than MODPA allows, and kids may be using the product.
A consumer app with data collection cut to what the service needs, high-privacy defaults for minors and a self-service privacy request page.
Ambulance, transport and care homes
Facilities order transport by phone and disputes arise over what was requested.
A request and dispatch app with a time-stamped record. For Life Line Ambulances, request-to-crew time fell from 22 minutes to 3.

How to compare app development companies in Maryland
Ask every firm on your Maryland shortlist for a written price, launch times on named projects, who writes the code, and whose name the code and store accounts are in. Our answers: $7k to $30k, a first release in 5 to 10 weeks, Shivam Pujara's in-house team, and everything in your name. The full list is in how to choose a software development company.
How a build works, from first call to handover
Across our published builds the first release shipped in 5 to 10 weeks, with a median of 7. Integrations and compliance work add more time than screens do. See how long our builds took.
Free 30-minute project call, then written scope and quote, then design you approve, then build with weekly demos, then test and launch, then handover you own, then support when you need it.

“They translated very complex operational processes into software that feels simple for our team to use.”
“Communication was clear, timelines were realistic, and the final product matched what was scoped.”
“Working with [our team] was the best decision we made in this process. We went from a 6 month development cycle to a 10 week timeline.”
How our mobile app development in Maryland handles MODPA and security reviews
Maryland's Online Data Privacy Act has applied to processing since April 1, 2026, and it limits collection to what is reasonably necessary for the service a customer asked for. That changes the build: every form field, analytics tag and data export has to earn its place. We design web apps and mobile apps around that rule from the first screen, with consent records, opt-outs and a way to answer access and deletion requests, so your app does not need rework when a customer or regulator asks.
If you sell to federal agencies or primes, your client will ask about access control, logging and hosting before features. We share an architecture and data-flow document early, so your security lead reviews alongside the build instead of at the end. For health clients the pattern is proven: Infuse CTL's scheduling app lifted clinician utilization from 52% to 79%. At launch you get the code, a recorded walkthrough and written documentation.
How to hire an app developer in Maryland: 6 things to settle first
- Does MODPA apply to my business?
The Maryland Online Data Privacy Act covers businesses processing personal data of 35,000 or more consumers, or 10,000 with over 20% of revenue from selling data. If you may reach that, design for data minimization now.
- Could children use my product?
The Maryland Kids Code is in force for online products likely accessed by children, requiring impact assessments and high-privacy defaults. Flag it on the first call so the design reflects it.
- Who must we notify first after a breach?
Maryland requires breach notice no later than 45 days after discovery, and the attorney general must be told before affected individuals. Logging and alerting in the app make that workable.
- Will the app hold controlled unclassified information?
If a federal contract puts CUI in scope, NIST SP 800-171 sets the controls. Settle it before scoping, and we will tell you plainly which parts fit our team.
- Will Maryland's software tax apply to my build?
Since July 1, 2025, custom software and business SaaS are taxed at 3% in Maryland. Ask your accountant how it applies to the build and to any SaaS you plan to sell.
- Can I get scope, price and ownership in writing?
Get screens, integrations, milestones, price and code ownership on paper. Ours are, and the pricing page explains what moves a build within $7,000 to $30,000.
Which Maryland laws change how your app is built?
The Maryland rules we design consent screens, data retention and breach logging around. A planning summary, not legal advice.
| Rule | What it means for the build |
|---|---|
| Consumer privacy law | Maryland Online Data Privacy Act (MODPA, SB 541) (Md. Code, Com. Law §§ 14-4701 to 14-4714), in effect from 2025-10-01. Applies to: Controlled or processed personal data of >=35,000 consumers (excluding payment-only data), OR >=10,000 consumers and >20% of gross revenue from sale of personal data (§ 14-4702). Applies to processing from 2026-04-01. Requires honouring universal opt-out signals such as Global Privacy Control, so the app needs an opt-out flow that reads the browser signal. |
| Data breach notification | Md. Code, Com. Law § 14-3504: notice deadline as soon as reasonably practicable, no later than 45 days after discovery; AG must be notified before individuals. We build audit logs that show what data was touched, so notice can be accurate and on time. |
| Maryland Age-Appropriate Design Code Act (Kids Code, HB 603) | Online products likely accessed by children need data protection impact assessments and high-privacy defaults; NetChoice v. Brown pending, no injunction, in force. (effective 2024-10-01) |
| Sales tax on SaaS | taxable: SaaS for personal use is a digital product taxed at 6%; SaaS for business use in an enterprise system and custom software (NAICS 5415) taxed at 3% from 2025-07-01 (Ch. 604 of 2025; Technical Bulletin 56).. Relevant if you will sell your app as a subscription. |
| Time zone | Eastern. Our team works from San Francisco (Pacific), with remote specialists covering other hours, so Maryland working hours overlap with ours every weekday. |

How much does it cost to develop an app in Maryland?
With us, a typical app or web app costs $7,000 to around $25,000 to $30,000, whether you are in Baltimore, Bethesda or anywhere else. A focused app with one user type sits low; several roles, payments, integrations and privacy request handling move it higher. The price comes in writing after a free 30-minute call.
How much does it cost to build a healthcare app?
With our team, a healthcare booking, intake or scheduling app usually costs $7,000 to around $25,000 to $30,000. Consent capture, role-based access, privacy request handling and links to your scheduling or billing system push it toward the top. Infuse CTL's scheduling app is one example. You get the price in writing after a free 30-minute call, project-based or hourly.
Does Maryland's software tax add to the cost of my app?
It can. Since July 1, 2025, Maryland taxes custom software and business SaaS at 3%, according to the Comptroller's technical bulletin. On a $20,000 build that would be about $600. Ask your accountant how it applies to your project and to any subscription you plan to sell. Our written quote shows our price, so you can add the tax correctly.
How long does it take to build an app for a Maryland business?
From signed scope to first release, our 44 published builds took 5 to 10 weeks, with 7 the median. The Life Line Ambulances dispatch app took 8 weeks. A client security review left to the end is the most common cause of delay, so we share an architecture document early and run the review alongside the build.
Does the Maryland Online Data Privacy Act apply to my app?
MODPA took effect October 1, 2025 and applies to processing from April 1, 2026. It covers businesses that handle personal data of at least 35,000 consumers, or 10,000 while earning over 20% of revenue from selling data. It limits collection to what is reasonably necessary and requires honoring universal opt-out signals.
Do you build software for government contractors in Maryland?
Yes, the commercial software contractors run on: proposal and staffing trackers, partner portals, timekeeping and reporting dashboards. If the system will hold controlled unclassified information, NIST SP 800-171 controls apply and hosting must match your contract. We do not hold clearances, so classified work is out of scope, and we say that on the first call.
Can a San Francisco team work with a Baltimore or Bethesda company?
Yes. Maryland is three hours ahead of us, so noon to 5 p.m. your time is shared working time, and our remote specialists cover earlier hours around a launch. You get a written scope, a weekly video demo and a staging build to test. We do not have a Maryland office.
How do I choose an app development company in Maryland?
Ask for published builds with named clients and results, who will write the code, a written scope and price, and confirmation that you own the code and accounts. In Maryland, also ask how they handle data minimization under MODPA, because an app that collects too much is expensive to fix later.
Can you build an app for children or families under the Maryland Kids Code?
Yes. For products likely used by children, we design high-privacy defaults, limit data collection and avoid features the Kids Code targets, and we prepare the information your team needs for its data protection impact assessment. The assessment itself is your decision, and your counsel should review it before launch.
What is the best mobile app development company in Maryland?
Search results for that question are mostly directory listings and agency-written top 10 lists, often ranking the author first. Use them for names, then shortlist from verified client reviews and compare each firm in writing on price, named clients, who writes the code and code ownership. We publish all four: our price range, 44 builds, our in-house team and code in your name.
