12² Studio · custom AI software and MVPs

Built in 21 days. For a flat fee.

12² is an AI full-stack development studio. Tell us what you want built. If it's a fit, 12² builds a working demo on sample data first, so you see it working before you pay. Then you get one flat fee in writing and a first version live 21 days after kickoff.

Demos

Five working demos. Open one and use it.

These are working software, not screenshots. Each one opens on this page and runs in your browser on sample data, so nothing you type is sent anywhere. Each was built as an answer to a brief someone posted publicly. None is a client project, and 12² has no client case studies yet and won't invent any.

What we build

From a spec to live software in one sprint.

MVPs and complete products

From a wireframe, a product spec or a paragraph of text to a working web or iOS app with accounts, payments and hosting. A first version is live 21 days after kickoff. Fieldcam, HailScan and Codes&More were built and are run this way.

For founders and businesses that need a product in front of users soon.

Automation and internal tools

One job your people do by hand, run end to end: intake, quoting, support or scheduling. Or the dashboard and data pipeline behind it, connected through the APIs of the software you already use. A person approves the steps that matter.

The sales dashboard, quoting, support and store demos above are this kind of build.

Built to run in production

A fast build still gets sign-in and roles, a database schema designed for your data, screens that work on a phone and a desktop, tests against your real cases, and always-on hosting. The three 12² products run on the same setup.

from $3,500One 21-day sprint for a flat fee: a single workflow, dashboard, tool or small MVP. You get the scope, the dates and the price in writing before work starts. from $8,000Larger products, planned as more than one sprint, each with its own flat fee. AI and software usage is billed at cost, with a monthly estimate in your quote.

What every sprint includes. Direct access to the builder, an architecture and database plan in writing, integrations with OpenAI, Anthropic, Stripe and the tools you already use, and documented source code that you own outright. The stack is Next.js, Python and FastAPI, SwiftUI for iOS, LLM agents with retrieval and citation checks, and always-on hosting, and each part is running in one of the three products below.

In production

Three products, built and run by 12².

These are 12²'s own products, live today. They come from the construction and property world, which is where 12² started. The stack and the standard are what your build gets.

Who you're dealing with

No hourly billing. No middlemen.

An hourly contract pays a shop more the longer your project runs. 12² quotes one flat fee for a 21-day sprint, so it gets paid for shipping your product and not for the time it takes.

12² is a software company that builds with AI tooling, not an agency selling hours. No sales rep, account manager or subcontractor stands between you and the build. 12² starts two new builds a month, so yours gets the whole sprint.

What you can count on
  • One flat fee, in writingThe quote you sign is the price you pay. Outside costs such as AI usage are estimated in the quote and billed at cost.
  • No surprise change billsAdjustments inside the agreed scope are part of the fee. Work that adds scope is priced in writing first and waits for your yes.
  • You own 100% of itSource code, accounts, data and prompts sit in your name, with a written list of every provider that touches your data. No lock-in.
  • Nothing ships untestedEvery system is tested against your real cases, and you accept it before the final payment.
FAQ

Straight answers.

Is the demo really free? What's the catch?

Yes. The limit is that 12² only builds a demo for a project it can deliver and that fits a fixed-price build, so not every request gets one. You'll hear yes or no within one business day. The demo runs on sample data, and you owe nothing if you stop there.

Is there an off-the-shelf tool that already does this?

Often there is, and if so the reply will say so. A subscription tool is the right answer for plenty of businesses and costs far less. A custom build earns its price when the work has to run inside your own systems, follow your own rules, or do something no product covers.

What does a build cost, and how is payment handled?

One 21-day sprint is a flat fee from $3,500, which covers a single workflow, dashboard, tool or small MVP. Larger products start at $8,000 and are planned as more than one sprint, each with its own flat fee. Payment is 50% at kickoff and 50% when you accept the finished work. AI and software usage is billed at cost with no markup.

What can be built in 21 days?

A first version that real users can sign in to and use: the core screens, the database, sign-in, and the integrations it needs, such as payments or an AI model. The scope is agreed in writing before kickoff. If what you want won't fit in one sprint, the quote says so and splits it into sprints before you pay anything.

How does 12² ship that fast?

AI tooling writes much of the code. 12² plans the architecture, reviews what is written and tests it. Fieldcam, HailScan and Codes&More were built and are run this way, and you can sign up for each of them and look.

Will the AI say something wrong to my customers?

Every system is limited to what you've approved, such as your services, prices and policies, and anything outside that scope goes to a person on your side. It's tested against your real cases before launch, and conversations are logged so you can review them.

Who actually does the work?

12² does, in-house. The studio that scopes your project builds it. 12² starts two new builds a month and doesn't subcontract your build to anyone else.

Do you work outside the US?

Yes. Projects run remotely, and anywhere English works as the working language is fine.
