Ecommerce → Native app

Stop renting your customers from Meta. Own the channel.

We build your native iOS and Android apps, integrate them with your store, and hand over a push system loaded with 50 ready-to-send templates. Live in 30 days or your first three months are free.

The problem

Your best customers are on mobile. Your store is paying rent to reach them.

Every order through Meta, Google, or Klaviyo carries a tax. Every order through your app doesn't. The brands stacking app revenue now are quietly compounding margin while everyone else fights for the same ad inventory.

~$0k/yr

Annual revenue a $5M store loses to mobile-web friction — slow loads, lost carts, no re-engagement channel.

Owned channel economics

The solution

Three things you get. One outcome we guarantee.

The app, the integration, and the retention engine — built, shipped, and run for $10,000 + $3,500/month, flat. No revenue share. Ever.

An icon on the home screen

Real native iOS and Android apps, shipped under your brand in 30 days — or three months of service free.

  • App Store + Google Play, both stores, both shipped
  • Native navigation, gestures, performance
  • We handle submission, reviews, and updates

Zero rebuild of what already works

Your Shopify, Woo, or Magento store stays the source of truth. Catalog, checkout, accounts — wired in, not replaced.

  • Live in 6 weeks without touching your storefront
  • Existing checkout, discounts, gift cards, loyalty
  • Your dev team writes zero new code

A retention channel no algorithm can take from you

We run the push channel — segments, drops, lifecycle, win-backs — loaded and live before day 30. You own every install. No CPM. No auction.

  • 50-template push library, loaded day one
  • Segmented sends — size, RFM, category, churn risk
  • Open rates 5–10× higher than email, every send
Process

From signed contract to live apps — 6 weeks, on a clock.

Two phases, four steps, dated milestones. Every miss costs us $5,000 a week. Every hit moves you closer to launch.

  1. 01 · Day 0–2

    We audit. You do nothing.

    Send your store URL. We dissect your catalog, checkout, push readiness, and platform. Your team's time on this: 30 minutes for one kickoff call.

  2. 02 · Week 1

    Preview in 48 hours, or it's free.

    A concrete app direction — screens, flow, push playbook, launch scope — on your desk inside 48 hours of signing. Miss the window: $5,000 credit, automatic.

  3. 03 · Weeks 2–4

    We build. You ship product.

    Native navigation, PDP, search, account, checkout, push triggers, analytics. Weekly Loom + Slack update. You sign off; you don't manage tickets.

  4. 04 · Weeks 5–6

    Live in stores within 30 days of build start.

    Submission, store-listing assets, review responses, launch push campaign, first retention sends. Miss the 30-day window — three months of service on us.

Tapcart numbers use $12k base + 1.75% at Enterprise tier (public pricing, Jan 2026). Custom dev assumes one mid-level eng + PM time. Time to first install includes a 48-hour preview window plus the 30-day build-and-ship window backed by our launch guarantee.

Why push

The only channel where Meta doesn't take a cut.

Email lands in the promotions tab. Ads cost more every quarter. Push lands on the lock screen, for free, to a customer who chose to install your app. This is the channel you own outright — no algorithm sits between you and your buyer.

  • 90% open rate. Average.

    Push lands on the lock screen in seconds. Email hits the promotions tab — if it hits at all. Same shopper. 10× the eyeballs.

  • Segments your CRM can't touch

    By size, RFM tier, category interest, last-purchase window, churn risk, abandoned cart. Every segment, every send, included in $3,500/mo.

  • $0 to reach a customer who already bought

    No CPM, no auction, no algorithm tax. Once they install, you own the channel. Forever. Permission-based, direct, compounding with every new install.

Market moment

The window isn’t ‘mobile.’ The window is this quarter.

0 slots

What's left in Q3 2026. We onboard 4 brands per quarter — one per category. When a direct competitor signs first, you're told, then locked out for the quarter.

Live capacity

$0k/quarter

Cost of waiting at $4M store revenue. Every 90 days without an app channel is a quarter your competitor is compounding push retention you don't have.

Prodius client model — push channel at $4M store revenue

Day 0

When the 30-day launch clock starts — the moment you sign. Brands that sign in Q3 go live in Q3. Brands that wait start the clock a quarter behind.

FAQ

The 7 questions every brand asks before signing.

Money, risk, and timing. The rest we cover live in the preview call.

Yes — it's in the MSA, not a marketing line. If your app isn't live in both stores within 30 days of kickoff, your next three months of service are free — $10,500 applied automatically. No claim to file. No argument. The date is in the contract.

Your next three months of service are free — $10,500 of value, automatic. If we miss earlier milestones, you also get a $5,000 service credit per week of delay, applied to your next invoice. Every milestone has a date. Every miss costs us, not you.

First 60 days: full refund, every dollar. You keep the app, the source code, and every asset we shipped. No claw-back, no clause. We'd rather lose one bad-fit engagement than ship work we can't stand behind.

Because Tapcart-style take rates punish you for winning. At $5M app GMV, Tapcart's 1.75% fee runs ~$102k/year. At $20M, ~$362k. Ours is $52k/year — forever. The bigger you grow, the more we save you. Your revenue is yours.

Because every brand gets a dedicated pod — CSM, designer, dev lead, shared Slack. That's how we honor the launch and activation guarantees. Four is what we can serve at that depth without missing a date. When the slots are gone, the next opening is next quarter.

Yes — through Atelier, our invitation-only tier for $20M+ stores. Custom scope, on-site sessions, executive sponsor, tailored MSA. One Atelier engagement per quarter. Tell us what you're running and we'll route you.

Yes. Your store stays the source of truth — Shopify, Woo, BigCommerce, Magento, headless. Native where the platform supports it; polished web-bridge where it doesn't. Discounts, gift cards, accounts, orders — untouched.
