What you stop doing.
The work moves from your staff's plate to ours. App, website, loyalty, messaging, and reporting become one operated layer.
Your loyalty program keeps moving.
Points, VIP tiers, lapsed-customer messages, and win-back campaigns run without your team babysitting another login.
Customers hear from you at the right time.
Push notifications, schedule updates, promos, and reminders are segmented and shipped by the team operating your stack.
The weekly readout is already written.
Bookings, visits, returning customers, no-shows, and campaign lift come back as a plain-English summary.
Agency quote. Contractor maze. Or us.
The same pieces a traditional team would split across contracts, built and operated under one flat monthly relationship.
We also keep the longer comparisons handy: agency projects and the Shopify app stack.

What business owners usually ask first.
Practical questions about cost, ownership, launch timing, and what happens after the app goes live.
What's inside the Business tiers?
Every tier includes the same full stack: a native iOS + Android app, a website, a rewards/loyalty program, an AI ops layer trained on your business, and our team operating all of it. The tiers scale by monthly active users: Base covers up to 2,000 MAU at $950/mo, Plus up to 10,000 MAU at $1,500/mo, Pro up to 50,000 MAU at $2,500/mo. If you're approaching a tier ceiling, we reach out before anything changes.
Do you work outside Los Angeles?
Yes. Rehost works with organizations across the U.S. Our office is in Los Angeles, but the operating model is remote-ready: one dashboard, one team thread, and the same launch process whether you are on the West Coast, East Coast, or somewhere in between.
What do we own?
You retain the content and data you provide. Domains, developer accounts, payment accounts, code licenses, exports, and handoff terms follow the signed customer agreement. Rehost owns its service software, code, and designs unless that agreement states otherwise.
How does it differ from hiring an agency?
Agencies sell projects: they quote a fixed scope, build it, hand it over, and bill you again the next time something breaks. We sell operations: the team that builds it is the team that runs it, and the monthly fee covers both. No project quote, no hourly billing, no change-order fees, no "phase two."
What if our team wants to make a change at 9pm on a Friday?
Send a message in your dashboard. Most copy and content changes land same-day during the week and Monday morning on weekends. Anything bigger gets a quick scope-and-go reply with a target date. There is no admin panel for your staff to log into. That's the entire point.
We already have a POS / loyalty / email tool. Does this replace them?
Usually yes, partially. We build a unified app and dashboard that connects to your POS (Square, Toast, Clover, etc.) and either replaces or wraps your loyalty and email tools. The point is your team stops administering five logins. We migrate, you don't.
App Store rejections: who deals with them?
We do. We submit, we respond to reviewer notes, we ship the compliance fixes. Apple and Google approval is part of the operating fee. Your team never opens App Store Connect or Google Play Console.
What happens when service ends?
The signed customer agreement identifies the commitment, notice, effective end date, exportable data, transferable accounts, any code license or handoff, and when Rehost-managed hosting and operations stop.

What stays in your name, what we operate, and how changes ship.
Less software to administer. More business to run.
One conversation, then the team takes it from there. No deck to review, no contractor pool to manage, no admin login to share with staff.
