We've worked with enough operators in Novena to know that the brief that arrives in our inbox is rarely the brief that ends up shipped. The first thing we do on any mobile apps project is sit with your team for a day before we propose anything.
Built and supported here - the way a Novena business would actually use it.
What mobile apps actually does
A real app on the App Store and Google Play, built around the one job your customers or crew need it for. Bookings, job cards, photo capture, quotes, loyalty, whatever the business actually runs on, with the AI wired in behind it.
- 01 One codebase for iOS and Android, so you are not paying twice
- 02 We handle App Store and Google Play submission and review
- 03 Works offline in the ute, syncs when the signal comes back
- 04 Push notifications your team will actually read, not noise
Built on: React Native Expo Swift Kotlin Supabase Cloudflare Workers

Why Novena businesses are a fit for this.
- Novena is Singapore's medical hub, dense with private hospitals and specialist clinics - AI here means handling patient-facing and admin work with genuine care around accuracy.
- One of the highest concentrations of private hospitals and specialist medical centres in the region, serving both local patients and medical tourism. Clinics here want AI that reduces admin load without ever compromising on precision.

How we build mobile apps for a Novena team.
We scope narrow, ship a working pilot, then harden it into production. The first slice is the highest-leverage workflow for your Novena business, so value lands before the build is finished. IOS and Android apps.
Talk to usThe outcome for Novena teams
The shape of the result for Novena teams: Most first releases are in the stores inside 8 weeks, not 8 months. Built on React Native, hardened with the rest of the stack as it scales.
Not your typical AI agency.
Honest about what AI can and cannot do
Ships the one workflow that pays for itself
Hours given back, never the size of the invoice
*Every engagement is scoped and quoted up front. Results vary by workflow and business.
FAQ
When does mobile apps actually pay back?
Inside the first quarter, in our experience. We pick the first slice specifically because it's the highest-leverage workflow for a Novena - so the savings start landing before the rest of the build is finished.
How do you price mobile apps engagements?
Fixed-scope pilots first, then either project pricing or a small monthly retainer for the ongoing work. No long lock-ins, no 18-month black-box deals. Most Novena businesses are surprised how small the first cheque is.
Can you walk us through a comparable build?
Yes - on the first call we'll pick the closest engagement we've shipped to what you're describing and walk through the outcome, the headcount and the time it took. Most first releases are in the stores inside 8 weeks, not 8 months.
Will this run on our own infrastructure?
Yes, where it makes sense. Mobile apps can sit entirely in your cloud account, with model calls routed through endpoints you control. We default to React Native, Expo, Swift, Kotlin, Supabase, Cloudflare Workers but the architecture supports your existing platform choices.
Worth a conversation?
Even if you don't end up working with us, you'll leave the call knowing what's worth building.
