Project Spotlight
You have been incredible for us from the beginning. The level of effort and dedication you have put into helping us get across the line before launch is above and beyond. Thank you so much for the hard work. We are really excited about the state of the platform.
Partnering with K-Optional Software to Launch a Stalled Project
Flowty approached K-Optional Software prior to their public release. They had been contracting with an off-shore team for about a year, and at this point were urgently trying to bring their product to market because without a positive cash flow, they were dead in the water. Flowty’s CTO recommended K-Optional to assess the frontend codebase. Subsequently, Flowty hired K-Optional as an embedded team working under the Flowty logo. Our first assignment was the stable release of the product.

Transforming Survey Administration for the University of Texas School of Nursing
The University of Texas (UT) Nursing Department requested a technical solution for administering a sophisticated survey. The results would become the basis for a major statewide study. UT hired a development firm, but the subjects (pharmacists) had a hard time with the interface. This created user errors and data output that were impossible to interpret, which made it difficult to derive any meaningful insights.

Frequently Asked Questions - Austin Texas Custom Software Company
- Will I "own the code" that I hire you to develop?
- Yes, in our standard development contract we ascribe all code / intellectual property ownership to you, the client.
- How sure will you be of project costs ahead of time?
- Unlike many other development groups, we offer fixed quotes at kick-off.
- What makes K-Optional different than any other development group?
- This industry is littered with failed projects and disappointment, something K-Optional won't let happen. The leading causes of a doomed project are poor craftsmanship, lack of accountability, mis-coordination and inexperience; we see our work as an art, provide transparency in everything we do, and bring years of industry-leading project-management skills to every engagement.
- Where is your team located?
- We're all full time and all right here, in the USA. Close contact cultivates success: we hold daily meetings to review project progress and collaborate on design and development.
- What is the estimated timeline for completing a typical project?
- The timeline for completing a project can vary based on its complexity and scope. During the initial consultation, we work closely with clients to understand their requirements and provide a realistic timeline. On average, initial projects span 4-6 months and always meet the specified timeframe agreed upon at the beginning of the development process.
- How do you ensure the reliability and quality of the software through testing?
- We prioritize software reliability through a comprehensive testing approach. Our team rigorously tests each feature for functionality, assesses compatibility across platforms, and evaluates performance under diverse conditions. Identifying and addressing vulnerabilities for robust security is a core focus, supplemented by live error detection frameworks and user flow tracking processes. Client involvement is key to maintaining transparency and confidence in the software's security, reliability, and readiness to meet business needs.
- What kind of support do you offer post-launch?
- When your app is on the web or in the App Store or Play Store, it's all yours! If you're interested in hiring us to add more features or monitor usage beyond our 30-day warranty period, you're welcome to but by no means required.
- How do you ensure the security of the code and sensitive data during development?
- Security is a top priority for us. We implement industry best practices for code security, conduct regular code reviews, and employ encryption techniques to safeguard sensitive data. Additionally, our team follows stringent access control measures, and we stay informed about the latest security threats and updates to proactively address any potential vulnerabilities.
