What we build

Software shaped to your business — not the other way around.

Six kinds of work, one team. We replace the spreadsheet stack and the half-fitted SaaS bundle most companies live with: bespoke web apps, internal tools, integrations, mobile, AI, and the dashboards your team will actually open on Monday.

Bespoke web applications

Customer portals, marketplaces, and product apps built on a modern stack — architected for the next ten years, not the next demo.

  • TypeScript, React, Postgres
  • Auth, billing, and audit trails
  • Designed before a line is shipped
Web app builds

Internal tools & ops platforms

Operations consoles, admin panels, and back-office tools that turn five tabs of spreadsheets into one clean workflow your team trusts.

  • Workflow & approval engines
  • Role-based access & audit logs
  • Replaces 3–6 SaaS subscriptions
Internal tools

Integrations & APIs

Connect the systems that already run your business: ERPs, CRMs, payment rails, logistics. Built once, documented, and tested at every release.

  • REST & GraphQL APIs
  • Stripe, NetSuite, Salesforce, Xero
  • Webhooks, queues, retries done right
Integration work

Mobile applications

Native-feel iOS and Android apps for the field, the floor, or the customer in their pocket — shipped to both stores from one codebase.

  • React Native & Swift / Kotlin
  • Offline-first when it matters
  • Store submission & release plan
Mobile builds

AI & data products

LLM-powered features that earn their keep — document extraction, search, copilots, and analytics layered onto data you already own.

  • RAG & structured extraction
  • Evals before you ship
  • Cost & latency budgets enforced
AI engagements

Product strategy & design

Discovery sprints, prototypes, and design systems for teams that want to validate the idea before they buy the engineering.

  • Two-week discovery sprints
  • Clickable prototypes & user testing
  • Design systems your devs will use

How we work

From kickoff to a working v1 in fourteen weeks.

Every build follows the same shape. Predictable, fixed-fee, and never the kind of "discovery phase" that quietly bills for six months.

01 · WEEKS 1–2

Discover

We sit with the people who'll use the software. You get a written brief, a clickable prototype, and a fixed-fee proposal — even if you never sign the next phase.

02 · WEEKS 3–4

Design

Flows, screens, and a working design system. Engineering reviews every artifact before it leaves the room, so nothing gets drawn that can't be built.

03 · WEEKS 5–14

Build

Two-week sprints, demoed live, deployed continuously. You see real software running on real data from sprint one — not a slide deck about it.

04 · HAND-OFF

Own

Source code, infrastructure, and documentation transferred to your team or kept on retainer with us. Your call — the keys are always yours.

Customer voices
"They replaced a six-figure SaaS stack and three years of half-finished internal tooling with one application our whole operations team uses every day. We own the code; they keep shipping."

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Who owns the code and the IP?

You do. Source code, design files, and infrastructure are yours from the first commit — stored in your repos, on your cloud accounts, under your name. We work in your GitHub, not ours.

How do you price a build?

Fixed scope, fixed fee per phase. Discovery is a flat rate; design and build are quoted from the discovery output. No hourly meters, no "change request" surprises — if scope shifts, we re-plan and re-quote together before anything moves.

What does the engagement actually look like?

Fourteen weeks on average from kickoff to v1: two weeks discovery, two weeks design, ten weeks build. Two-week sprints, demoed live, deployed continuously. Your team has commit access and a shared Slack from day one.

Do you work with our existing engineering team?

Yes — about half of our clients have in-house engineers we partner with. We pair on the build, leave thorough docs, and most teams take ownership of the codebase within 6–12 months. The others keep us on a retainer; both work.

What stack do you build on?

TypeScript, React, Node, Postgres, and AWS for most web apps. React Native for mobile. We pick the stack that fits the problem and your team — not the one we wrote the most blog posts about.
