The worst decision I have ever made
I connected with Desverso after filling my information out on bark.com. I received a phone call very fast and started talking to a man named Ryan( won’t give last name for privacy). At first he answered every question I had to ask leading me to believe I can trust them. This was back in 2023/24. I decided to go with this company for my app idea. We wrote a contract (with some things I really didn’t like) and proceeded after meeting the owner in person at his office in Seattle. That was a 6 hr flight for me. They told me this project can be done in 6 months time (as written in the contract). After 2 month or so it seemed like it was on track and when they asked for a review I gave them a decent one which they put up on their page(I asked them to take it down). So through the remainder of the time it has been down hill after that. Their lead developer left then was replaced by someone else which was fired because of theft. We had an agreed amount on the project cost which i am now double the amount I paid and the project still isn’t done. I got a lawyer involved for a letter of demand which they ignored to last day they can answer it. Tried to come up with a reasonable contract and then they try to blame the delay on me because I simply just changed the name of the project and not any type of programming or algorithm. I am now sitting here in 2026 struggling to pay bills just scraping by with my project and idea in their hands. I’m currently looking for a lawyer to get either what I paid for back or for them to finish the project. I am coming close to 2 years of damage of revenue from my buisness and the amount of mental pain this has caused me is unhealthy. They had the nerve to say the project was completed then asked for TWO MORE extensions. Iv been waiting to test my project since 2024…. Now in 2026 I asked multiple times where my files are and they ignore and keep saying they will get it to me. Do yourself a favor and stay away from this company. I’m close to losing my apartment because I trusted this company would get done with this and it has been the biggest mistake I have ever made in my life. I worked 15 years saving up for this.. it was my baby and they are heartless about the project.
