Distribution Friction
The App Store model is broken for all but the biggest brands. It forces users to navigate to a third-party store, wait for a download, and grant permissions before they ever see your value. Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) are designed for the modern web—they offer offline caching, push notifications, and the ability to be "installed" to the home screen directly from your browser in a single tap.
Why PWAs Scale
- Instant Engagement: No App Store submission delays, no review process, and immediate updates across all devices.
- SEO Integration: Unlike native apps, PWA content is indexable by Google. You are building an app that captures organic traffic.
- Maintenance Economy: Maintain one codebase for desktop, mobile, and app. You save 50%+ in development costs by not building separate iOS and Android native apps.
