Staff Augmentation
Mercury Development helps companies build, rescue, modernize, and scale complex digital products. We work startups that need to design, scope & build the MVP and enterprise companies that need to scale or improve existing apps, portals, internal systems, or hardware-connected software.
For startups, we help founders refine the MVP scope, stabilize weak products, rebuild underperforming apps, extend existing platforms, and move faster when prior vendors or internal teams have not delivered.
For mid-market and enterprise clients, we support modernization and extension of existing systems or ad-hoc greenfield experiments. That includes customer-facing apps, internal workflow tools, portals, data-heavy platforms, QA/process setup, and connected-device or hardware-integrated software, automations and agentic workflows.
We help clients define the right scope, reduce technical risk, clarify delivery plans, and then execute with a senior team.
Mercury Development offers competitive pricing and good value for cost. Specific project costs include $150,000 for a gaming app, $325,000 for a distraction management system, and over $5 million for ongoing projects. Clients appreciate their flexibility, quality, and project management skills.
