A small studio with real products

CostaDev builds web apps people pay for, gives away the tools behind them, and takes on a few client projects a year.

Web apps you can subscribe to

Focused products that do one job well and keep getting better. Fair prices, no lock-in, and support from the team that built them.

  • Monthly plans and one-time licenses
  • Secure checkout with Stripe or Lemon Squeezy
  • Your data exportable, always

Open source by default

The libraries behind our apps are public. Use them in your own work, fork them, or send a pull request.

  • Permissive licenses
  • Docs and examples in every repository
  • Issues read and answered

Design and code from one desk

Interface, backend, hosting and deploys come from the same hands, so nothing gets lost between teams.

  • Full-stack web development
  • Hosting, monitoring and backups

Your idea, built properly

A handful of client projects a year: MVPs, internal tools and websites for businesses in Costa Rica and abroad.
