Yuxi's first iPhone application!
I am absolutely ecstatic to announce the launch of our first of many new iPhone applications in the iTunes store today. RAD Estimator is a tool for radiology professionals to evaluate assets and research the value of equipment in today’s marketplace. It went live today and will sell for $19.99.
Earlier this year, Yuxi Pacific began soliciting local area entrepreneurs for their ideas and the response has been overwhelming. Now, in concert with our partners, Yuxi Pacific has almost a dozen iPhone applications in development and scheduled for launch in the 4th quarter of 2009 and 1st quarter of 2010.
The word-of-mouth on blogs is that iPhone app development is not practical. Most firms charge between $125/hr and $200/hr for iPhone app development, and considering the average app takes 6 weeks to develop, that is about $7,500.
However, Yuxi has changed the game with the off-shore and partnership model. We have received and evaluated hundreds of submissions. For those with viable business models, we build them at cost - which, because our staff is located in China, is often times less than $2,000. Yuxi and the partner share ownership of the application, and revenue is split. It's a win-win all around.
