Hire an agency or build it yourself?
With Newly you build the app yourself, without code. You describe what you want, try it on native iOS and Android cloud simulators, and ask for changes until it is right. The first version is ready to try in your first session, and changes cost credits, not change requests.[1][4][3]
Intunio, in Gothenburg, builds native and cross-platform iOS and Android apps and also offers web development, industrial UX and HMI design, IoT and embedded work.[9]
An agency is a good fit when someone else must own delivery, or when the app has heavy integrations with existing systems. For most founders, small businesses and creators, building the first version yourself is faster and cheaper, and you can still hand the code to an agency later.[7]
What does it cost?
Newly starts at $25/month with credits for agent work. Cloud simulators and native builds do not use credits. Apple charges $99 a year for its developer program and Google a one-time $25 for a Play Console account, whichever way you build.[2][3]
Publishes three models: fixed price per quote, a team retainer at 995 kr/hour, and expert consultants at 1 095 kr/hour.[10]
Can you use both?
Yes. Build and test the first version in Newly, then connect the project to GitHub. A working app gives a developer or agency a much clearer scope than a written brief, and you keep the code either way.[7]
