Hey, I'm Tristyn 👋
I started TristynTech because I got tired of watching good founders get burned — ghosted by freelancers, quoted $150/hour by an agency, and left with an app nobody was looking after.
I've been in your seat. I spent 10 years as a software engineer at Austin startups, building products of my own along the way — including one I sold. I know exactly what it's like to have an idea you believe in and just need someone who can actually build it — fast, and without the runaround.
In that time I've shipped products that raised over $20M in funding, watched MVPs we built land deals with Fortune 500 companies, and helped founders go from a napkin sketch to a funded startup.
So when you subscribe, you're not handing your product to a stranger you'll never hear from again. You get engineers who have actually shipped — real products, real users, real funding raised — working your hours, telling you the truth, and treating your app like it's our own for as long as you want us around.
We've built our own products. We've had our own exit. Now I'd love to help you build yours.
Questions, answered
I'm not technical — is that a problem?
Not at all. You bring the business; we handle the engineering and explain everything in plain English. Most of the people we work with have never written a line of code.
What's the free plan, and how does it work?
First we hop on a quick call so we understand your app — what it's built with, what's breaking, what you wish it did. Then, usually the next day, we send you a written plan: what we'd fix first, what we'd build next, and which tier fits. It's yours to keep whether or not you subscribe.
What's included for $249/mo?
Maintain keeps a live app or website healthy: ongoing maintenance and monitoring, bug fixes whenever they come up, security patches and updates, and 24/7 access to an engineer for anything urgent. It's the right fit when your product is done and you just want it to stay that way. If you also want new features built, that's Grow at $999/mo.
What's the difference between Grow and Dedicated?
Grow ($999/mo) is maintenance plus unlimited feature requests — you send the list, we work through it one at a time, with a dedicated engineer who knows your codebase. Dedicated ($3,999/mo) is your own full-time engineer, about 160 hours a month, embedded in your team: your Slack, your standups, your repo. Grow fits most small businesses; Dedicated is for teams with a constant stream of work.
Is there a limit to how many requests I can make?
No. On Grow and Dedicated you can add as many requests to your queue as you'd like. We work through them one at a time in the order you set, so the most important thing always ships first.
How will I request work?
However you already work — Slack, text, email, or a shared board like Trello, Notion, or Linear. Send it over and it goes straight into your queue; you'll get updates as it moves.
Do they really work US hours?
Yes. Every plan runs on US business hours — Central time by default, adjusted to yours — and your engineer joins meetings during your day. Our engineers are based across the US and the Philippines; the ones on your account keep your schedule, not theirs.
What does 24/7 access actually mean?
You get a direct line — Slack, text, or email — that reaches an engineer around the clock. Day-to-day work happens during US business hours; if something breaks at 2am, someone is there. Every plan includes it.
What kinds of apps do you support?
Just about anything — websites and web apps, iPhone and Android apps, AI tools, customer portals, internal tools. React, Next.js, Node, Firebase, Swift, Flutter, Python, and more. We don't have to have built it to look after it — most of the apps we support were built by someone else first, including apps made with AI tools like Lovable, Bolt, and Replit.
My app was made with Lovable or another AI tool — can you take it over?
Yes, and we do it a lot. AI tools are great for getting a first version out the door, and then you hit the wall: something breaks, a feature won't come together, or you're nervous about touching it. We'll take a look, tidy up anything shaky, and from then on you just send us what you want done — you never have to open the code again unless you want to.
Who actually does the work?
Senior engineers on our team, based across the US and the Philippines. Tristyn, the founder, spent 10+ years building at Austin startups — including products that raised over $20M and one successful exit. You work directly with the team, not a junior contractor you've never met.
How quickly can someone start?
Maintain and Grow usually start within a few days of the call — we just need access to your code and hosting. Dedicated takes a week or two while we match the right engineer to your stack.
How does pausing work?
If you don't have work for a stretch, pause — billing stops until you're ready to pick back up, and your engineer resumes right where you left off. Cancelling works the same way: no notice period, no drama.
Can I switch plans?
Yes. Start on Maintain and move up to Grow when you have features to build, or scale to Dedicated when the work becomes constant. Moving down works the same way — just tell us.
Can I use it for just a month?
Absolutely. Every plan is month to month with no minimum. Plenty of clients subscribe for a month to clear a backlog, pause, and come back when the next batch of work piles up.
Do I own everything?
Yes, completely. Your code, your accounts, your data — all yours, in your repo. If you ever leave, everything stays with you and any other team can pick up right where we left off.
Are there any other costs?
The monthly rate covers the engineering. The only extras are things like hosting, a domain, and app store developer accounts, paid directly to those providers (usually $10–100/month). We'll tell you exactly what to expect.
How does payment work?
Billed monthly by card, starting the day your engineer starts. Nothing is due until after your free call, once you've decided to move forward.
What if I need more than one engineer?
Add as many as you need — a second Dedicated engineer, or a whole pod. They all work as part of your team, and we scale up or down with you.
What if it's not the right fit?
We'll rematch you with a different engineer, no questions asked. Our goal is a long-term fit that genuinely works for your team — if the first match isn't it, we make it right.
I don't have an app yet — can you build one?
Yes. We build apps and websites for one flat price, agreed up front, live in as little as 2 weeks — from $1,997, with your design done free within 24 hours of the call. Once it's live, any plan on this page keeps it running and growing. See the app-build offer, or just tell us on the call that you're starting from scratch.
