Is there a web development company in Fort Lauderdale that builds custom web apps?
Yes. Cuanto Labs is a founder-led software studio based in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, building software since 2019 and formed as an LLC in Florida in January 2026. We build custom web apps such as CRMs, dashboards and customer portals in React, Next.js and TypeScript, for a fixed price from $8K and a timeline of 4–8 weeks.
How much does custom software cost?
A custom web app at Cuanto Labs starts at $8K, and the $8K to $20K band covers a CRM, dashboard, internal tool or customer portal with a real backend and API integrations, not a template. For comparison, Clutch's pricing guide puts the average reviewed web project at $66,499 over about nine months.
When should I build a custom web app instead of buying software?
Build when the work is your own process: logins, records, workflows and calculations that a spreadsheet and three disconnected tools only half cover. A custom app replaces them with real business logic and connects to the systems you already run. If an existing tool already does the job, we will tell you.
What technology do you build web apps with?
React, Next.js and TypeScript on the front end, a Node.js or Python backend, and PostgreSQL or MongoDB databases, with API integrations into the tools you already use. The code, repositories, hosting accounts and domains transfer to you at handover, so the system is yours to run or hand to another team.
What is cheaper, hiring a developer by the hour or a fixed price?
Clutch lists United States web developer rates at $100 to $149 per hour. Cuanto Labs does not bill hourly. You get one number in a written proposal before any code exists, and no change order for work inside the agreed scope. A web app starts at $8K.
What happens between the first call and launch?
A thirty-minute discovery call covers the problem, timeline and budget. A fixed-price proposal follows, with scope and a number in writing. Then we build in the open, with a working version in week two and weekly reviews, and finish with launch and handover of code, repositories and accounts.
How does Cuanto Labs' web app price compare with South Florida firms?
Cuanto Labs starts at $8K, fixed. 10 of 17 South Florida software and web firms on Clutch that publish a minimum project list one above $8K, and the median minimum is $10,000+. Their median hourly band is $100-$149/hr. Clutch minimums cover any project type. Data as of September 26, 2026.

More questions
What counts as a web app rather than a website?
A website presents information; a web app does work — logins, records, workflows, calculations, integrations with systems you already run. If your team currently does that work by hand in a spreadsheet, it is a web app.
Is the $8K a starting price or the real price?
It is the floor, and the number you get in the proposal is fixed before we start. There is no hourly billing and no change order for work that was in the agreed scope.
How fast do we see something working?
You get a working version in week two and review progress weekly, rather than waiting for a single reveal at the end.
Who owns the code?
You do. Code, repositories, hosting accounts and domains transfer to you at handover.
