Most developers who reach us already know China is an opportunity. What they don't know is what it actually takes — for their specific app, in their specific situation. These two steps are designed to answer that question, then act on it.
You're seriously considering China as a market. You may already have organic Chinese users or revenue you've never acted on. Before spending time, money, or internal resources, you want a clear, honest, expert assessment of what entry would actually require — and whether it makes commercial sense at your current scale.
This report gives you that picture. Whether your conclusion is "let's move forward" or "not yet" — you'll have the information to make that decision with confidence.
An honest evaluation of your app's commercial potential in China — category, existing traction, competitive landscape, and realistic revenue expectations. We'll tell you directly if the economics don't work at your current scale.
We identify exactly which regulatory requirements apply to your specific app — the licenses that are mandatory, those that are advisory, and those that don't apply to you at all. Specific to your app, not a generic checklist.
A clear picture of what China entry would actually involve — the sequence of steps, realistic timelines for each, and the key decision points along the way. Including what you can do now, and what has to wait.
A breakdown separating HEYOU's service fees from third-party government and administrative costs — transparent and publicly verifiable. No hidden markups. No surprises.
Our direct recommendation: whether China entry makes sense for your app right now, what conditions would need to change if not, and what the right next step is either way.
A dedicated call to walk through your report findings and answer questions — with the specialist who wrote your report. Delivered within 5 business days of receiving your app details.
Every report ends with a specific recommendation. If we advise moving forward, we'll outline the exact scope of work required for your app — and provide a fixed project quote for China Entry Service.
You decide whether to proceed. No pressure, no obligation. But if you do move forward, your $1,500 report fee is fully deducted from the project cost.
Your Readiness Report has given you a clear picture and a recommendation to proceed. You're ready to move. You need a partner who will coordinate the entire China entry process — so your team stays focused on your product while we handle everything on the China side.
You're not looking for advice. You're looking for coordinated execution.
We coordinate the establishment of your Chinese legal entity with vetted local partners — advising on the right structure, the right city, and the right scope. All Chinese-language government interactions managed on your behalf.
We assess which city creates a practical advantage for your situation and help you navigate applicable government incentive programmes alongside entity setup.
Every qualification your app category requires — ICP filing, industry-specific licenses, and all supporting documentation — filed, tracked, and followed up on your behalf.
Complete review and written clearance of your advertising creative before any campaigns go live — a document your media agency can rely on and retain for compliance records.
We coordinate the ISBN (版号) application process — identifying the right licensed Chinese publishing partner and managing the relationship throughout. ISBN publisher fees are separate and vary by publisher.
A single point of contact who owns your project, communicates progress in English, and manages all Chinese-language interactions throughout.
Three months of support after your entity is live — covering regulatory updates, compliance questions, and platform policy changes as your campaigns run.
Cover compliance strategy, project coordination, partner management, and all English-language client communication. Fixed and agreed upfront before any work begins.
Government registration fees, administrative filings, and publisher fees are passed through at actual cost with no markup. Where costs are variable or subject to market conditions, we say so clearly in your Readiness Report — before any commitment is made.
The China Readiness Report gives you a complete, honest picture before you commit to anything — including a fixed project quote for China Entry Service if you decide to proceed. Your $1,500 is not a sunk cost. It's deducted from whatever comes next.
