Web application
Plaid Fertility Law
A guided way to purchase, personalize, and draft fertility agreements online.
Ideas we’ve brought to life
Different apps. Real everyday uses.
From drafting an agreement to finding a cashback offer, the best applications make the next step feel obvious. Here’s what that looks like in our work.
Mobile application
Great Canadian Rebates
An easier way for members to discover stores, find offers, and earn cashback.
Software product
Queryform
Lead attribution that helps businesses understand where their enquiries come from.
What could your application do?
Build around the people who use it.
Your app might help customers buy, make your team’s day easier, or turn an idea into a business. We start with that purpose, then shape the experience around it.
Not sure if you need mobile, web, or both?
Start with who will use it and what they need to do. We’ll help you choose the right format before you invest in the build.
One team, from idea to launch
You bring the idea We make the path clear
You don’t need a technical brief to get started. Tell us what you want to achieve. We’ll help define the first version, design it with you, and build it in stages you can follow.
-
Plan
Agree on what matters.
Define who it’s for, what it needs to do, and what belongs in the first release. Get clear on scope, budget, and the path ahead.
-
Design
Try it before we build.
Click through a prototype, explore the important screens, and share feedback. See how the application will work before development starts.
-
Build
See it take shape.
Review working versions as we develop the app, connect your systems, and test the details. You know what’s happening and what comes next.

Launch & support
Go live. Keep improving.
We help with launch, app-store submission where needed, and getting your team ready. Then plan ongoing maintenance and improvements together.
Direct conversations with the people doing the work. Clear decisions, regular previews, and support beyond launch.
From first release to the next feature
Launch is a milestone.
Keep building with confidence.
Your app will evolve as people use it. We build a repeatable path from development to testing to production, so new features can move forward without losing sight of what already works.
Test before release
Protect the journeys people rely on.
Test-driven development (TDD) sets out the expected behaviour before we build. Automated browser tests exercise key web journeys, such as signing in, completing a purchase, or approving a request. Failing checks block deployment, helping catch regressions before an update reaches users.
A deployment pipeline you own
A clear path into production.
For a client-owned setup, we deploy your application or API to a VPS in your DigitalOcean account. We establish a staging environment for reviewing changes before release, with a repeatable deployment process and clear responsibility for server maintenance.
Ongoing application support
Keep the app moving forward.
Choose Firescript-managed hosting to put server upkeep with us. Alongside hosting, we can plan application maintenance and new releases around your priorities. Updates go through the same testing process, making the codebase easier to maintain as features and integrations grow.
Laravel Cloud
Scale the app as usage grows.
For busy Laravel and Statamic applications, we configure Laravel Cloud with load balancing and scalable app instances. Managed databases, cache, and file storage sit outside those instances, so your application can be redeployed or scaled without relying on one server’s disk.
One release process. A foundation for what comes next.
For mobile apps, the backend and the installed app have separate release cycles. We plan API compatibility and app-store submissions alongside web deployments, so users on an older app version are considered when the backend changes.
Do you build both mobile and web applications?
Yes. We build mobile apps, web applications and portals, internal business tools, and new digital products. The format follows where people will use the app and what they need it to do.
Can you help us decide what the first version should include?
Yes. We work through the problem, the people using the app, and the essential tasks together. Then we define a first version, design it, and build it in stages you can follow.
Will we see the app before development is finished?
Yes. The process includes design and prototyping before the build, followed by stages where you can see the application take shape and give feedback.
What applications has Firescript worked on?
Examples include Plaid Fertility Law’s online agreement application, Great Canadian Rebates’ mobile app, and Queryform’s lead attribution tool. Each solves a different everyday task for the people using it.
How much does it cost to build an app in Canada?
App development costs depend on what people need to do, the platforms supported, and the systems the app connects to. Accounts, payments, offline use, and complex permissions add scope. We define the essential first version with you before estimating, and consider ongoing hosting, maintenance, and platform requirements alongside the initial build.
How long does it take to build an app?
An app’s timeline depends on its features, integrations, and testing requirements, not simply whether it is mobile or web. We start by defining the first release, then plan design, development, and review stages. If an app-store release is needed, submission and review are also part of the launch plan.
Should I build a mobile app or a web app?
A web app works through a browser and is often a practical starting point when easy access matters. A mobile app may fit better when the experience relies on device features, offline use, or frequent on-the-go tasks. We compare those needs with your audience, budget, and maintenance plans before recommending a direction.
