What we do

Start anywhere — an idea on a napkin, a stalled codebase, or a product that needs to scale.

01

Custom Software Development

From spec to shipped.

End-to-end product engineering. We take your idea through architecture, build, test, and launch — and we don't disappear after deploy.

  • Full-stack web apps
  • APIs & integrations
  • SaaS platforms
02

AI Integration & Automation

Put AI to work, not on a slide.

LLM-powered features, chat assistants, and workflow automation that cut hours of manual work out of your week — built into the tools you already use.

  • LLM features & copilots
  • Workflow automation
  • AI-powered internal tools
03

Software Consulting

Clarity before code.

Architecture reviews, tech strategy, and honest roadmaps. Know exactly what to build, what to buy, and what to skip — before you spend a dollar on the wrong thing.

  • Architecture reviews
  • Tech due diligence
  • Roadmapping
04

Web & Mobile Apps

Every screen your customers touch.

Fast, polished apps for browser and phone. One codebase or native — we pick what serves the product, not the trend.

  • Web apps & PWAs
  • iOS & Android
  • High-performance sites
05

MVP for Startups

Idea to live product, fast.

A focused build sprint that gets your core product in front of real users in weeks, not quarters. Fixed scope, fixed timeline, no drift.

  • Scoped build sprint
  • Launch-ready product
  • Investor-demo polish
06

UI/UX Design

Design that sells the product.

Interfaces users understand in five seconds. Product design, design systems, and prototypes that make engineering faster, not prettier slides.

  • Product & interface design
  • Design systems
  • Clickable prototypes
07

Cloud & DevOps

Ship on rails.

CI/CD pipelines, cloud infrastructure, and deployments that don't wake anyone up at 3am. We've shipped on Vercel, Fly.io, AWS, and bare Docker.

  • CI/CD pipelines
  • Cloud architecture
  • Migrations & cost tuning
08

Data Analysis Consulting

Decisions, not dashboards.

We turn your scattered data into answers: pipelines, dashboards, and analysis that tell you what's actually working.

  • Data pipelines
  • Dashboards & reporting
  • Analytics strategy
09

Maintenance & Support

Software that stays healthy.

Retainer-based monitoring, updates, and steady feature evolution. Your product keeps improving after launch instead of quietly rotting.

  • Monitoring & upkeep
  • Security updates
  • Feature retainers

How it works

Four steps from idea to launched product. The first one takes 30 seconds.

  1. You book a call

    30 min← you are here

    A free strategy call. You talk, we listen, and you leave with an honest read on scope, cost, and the fastest path — whether or not you hire us.

  2. 02

    We map the build

    3–5 days

    A concrete proposal: scope, milestones, timeline, and a fixed price. No vague estimates, no hourly black holes.

  3. 03

    We build in the open

    weekly demos

    You see working software every week, not a status report. Change your mind early, cheaply — that's the point of weekly demos.

  4. 04

    You launch, we stay

    ongoing

    Deploy day is the start, not the end. Monitoring, fixes, and iteration as your users show you what to build next.

Founder-led by design — the leaders you see here are the ones on your calls, in your codebase, and behind your launch.

Straight answers

Small builds and MVPs typically start in the low four figures; full products range wider depending on scope. Every project gets a fixed price before we write a line of code — you'll never get an hourly surprise. The free call gives you a real number for your idea.
