Why we exist

Freelancer prices, agency-grade quality, family-run trust.

Freelancer platforms are broken. Clients can't tell who's real and who's a username with a stock photo. Communication breaks down across timezones. Quality is a gamble. And when something goes wrong, there's no one accountable.

Big software houses solve the trust problem — but they charge ten times more for the same code, because most of that money pays for project managers, sales teams, and corporate overhead you'll never see.

Black Layers is what sits in the middle. Three certified engineers — brothers, working under one roof — who price like freelancers, communicate directly, and back every deliverable with a real Canadian corporation, written contracts, and a 5/5 first-review App Store track record.

Freelancer pricing

We price like a freelancer — not like an agency padding ten layers of overhead, project managers, and middlemen onto your invoice.

Agency-grade guarantees

Certified engineers, fixed-price quotes, written contracts, and a real Canadian corporation behind every deliverable. Not a username on Upwork.

Direct communication

You talk to the engineers actually building your project. No client success manager translating your words. No timezone gaps. No ghosting.

Ships fast, ships clean

Three engineers, one studio, end-to-end ownership. We design, build, test, and ship under one roof. That's why apps clear App Store review first time.
