How to choose a development partner
A checklist for founders and business owners choosing who will build their product.
Most hiring mistakes come from vague goals and shallow evaluation. This guide shows how to assess fit, process, and accountability.
Look for decision ownership
If no one owns scope decisions, the project will drift. Ask who is accountable when requirements change.
Ask for a scope-first process
A serious partner will start with rules, non-goals, and risk sequencing before talking features.
Test communication pace
Weekly demos and direct access reduce surprises. If updates are vague, expect rework.
Target Outcome
A shortlist of partners that can actually deliver what you need.
