CAPABILITY WITH RESTRAINT

WHAT WE BUILD

The right build is not the one with the most features. It is the one that solves the right problem at the right level of complexity. KHARAS develops focused applications, operational systems, audience and community experiences, expertise-based products, and substantial custom platforms when the idea genuinely calls for them.

THE WORK

APPS FOR PEOPLE WITH SOMETHING WORTH DEVELOPING.

KHARAS works across several kinds of applications, but every project begins with the same question: what does this need to accomplish for the people who will actually use it?

01

BUSINESS &
OPERATIONAL APPS

Internal systems, employee tools, client portals, workflow systems, dashboards and specialized operational tools that make work clearer and more efficient.

02

AUDIENCE &
COMMUNITY APPS

Membership systems, fan experiences, associations, communities, churches, nonprofits and connected ecosystems designed to serve specific groups of people.

03

EXPERTISE &
CONTENT APPS

Coaching systems, courses, books, assessments, journals, training programs, challenges and applications built around intellectual property or specialized knowledge.

04

CUSTOM
PLATFORMS

Larger systems involving multiple user types, permissions, dashboards, structured data, workflows, administration, integrations and ongoing development.

DEVELOPMENT LEVELS

NOT EVERY APP NEEDS THE SAME KIND OF BUILD.

A focused app should not be forced into an enterprise-sized development process. A serious platform should not be squeezed into a starter-app budget. These levels help orient the conversation, but they are not products to add to a cart. Every project requires an application and review.

04
APPLICATION ONLY

KHARAS VENTURE

Occasionally, an idea may represent something larger than a traditional client-development relationship. KHARAS may selectively consider projects with exceptional strategic potential for an individually structured arrangement.

  • Licensing
  • Revenue participation
  • Strategic development relationships
  • Joint ventures or equity arrangements
  • Other individually negotiated structures
HIGHLY SELECTIVE INDIVIDUALLY STRUCTURED

Any arrangement involving ownership, revenue participation, licensing or a similar structure is individually negotiated and is not promised by submitting an application.

WHY APPLICATION FIRST?

WHY CAN’T I JUST BUY AN APP?

Because app development is not a commodity inside KHARAS. Before accepting a project, we want to understand what you are trying to accomplish, who the application will serve, and whether software is genuinely the right solution.

01

What problem are we solving?

02

Who are we solving it for?

03

Does an app actually make sense?

04

What should Version One contain?

05

What should deliberately be left out?

06

Can KHARAS competently deliver what the project requires?

07

Can the owner realistically launch, support and maintain it?

08

Are our expectations compatible?

09

Do we want to work together?

THE APPLICATION PROCESS
PROTECTS BOTH SIDES.

THE APPLICATION

YOU DON’T NEED TO KNOW
WHICH LEVEL YOU NEED.

You do not need a complete specification, a final feature list or a technical background before you apply. Start by helping us understand the problem, the people the application should serve and what you believe it needs to accomplish.

We’ll determine what kind of build—if any—makes sense from there.

APPLY TO BUILD WITH KHARAS No purchase is made on this page. Applying does not obligate you to hire KHARAS, and submitting an application does not guarantee acceptance.
