Lisbon-based. Built for the world. We build MVPs, SaaS and AI products for founders in Lisbon and beyond. Production-ready in 2 to 4 weeks. Fixed price. You own the code.
Lisbon has emerged as Europe's fastest-growing startup hub, attracting founders from across the world with competitive costs, talent quality, and Web Summit's permanent home. The city has a strong community of remote-first founders.
Lisbon's founder community is diverse and internationally minded. Many founders are building for global markets from a cost-efficient European base. They need a studio that builds global-first from day one.

Still have questions?
Email hello@spofylabs.comYes. We work fully remote with clients anywhere in the world, including Lisbon. All project communication happens over Slack, with weekly video calls and a shared project board so you are always in the loop. Time zone is rarely a blocker.
Most MVPs are live in 2 to 4 weeks. We run a design sprint in the first few days to lock in architecture, then build at full speed. Timeline depends on scope. A focused product with clear requirements moves faster than one still being defined.
We scope projects as fixed-price engagements with clearly defined deliverables. You know what you are paying before we start. For ongoing product development, we offer retainer arrangements. No hourly billing.
Not at all. Many of our clients in Lisbon and globally are non-technical founders. You bring the domain knowledge and the problem. We handle the technical decisions, architecture, and build.
We default to Next.js or Astro on the frontend, Node.js or Python on the backend, PostgreSQL for data, and Vercel or Railway for hosting. For AI products we use OpenAI, Anthropic, and LangGraph. We adapt to existing infrastructure when needed.
A 30-minute call is enough to understand your project and give you a timeline and fixed price. No commitment required.
