Pick the engagement that fits your problem
Most clients start with one and grow into two or three. Every engagement begins with a scoped discovery, so you know the number and the plan before committing to a build.
- 01
Custom Software Development
Software shaped around your business, not the other way round.
- Model
- Fixed-scope build, then monthly retainer
- Timeline
- Working software in 2 weeks · 8–20 weeks to first production release
- From
- $12,000
You're probably here because
- Your team runs the business out of spreadsheets that only one person truly understands.
- You pay for SaaS that covers 70% of your process, and staff manually patch the other 30%.
- A developer built something years ago, left, and now nobody dares change it.
- 02
AI & Intelligent Automation
AI that's wired into your systems, not bolted onto a landing page.
- Model
- Assessment, then fixed-scope pilot, then retainer
- Timeline
- 2-week assessment, 6–12 weeks to production pilot
- From
- $9,500
You're probably here because
- Leadership wants an AI strategy and nobody can say which process it should touch first.
- You ran a promising pilot in ChatGPT and have no path from there to production.
- Staff spend hours reading PDFs, invoices, or contracts and retyping the contents.
- 03
Dedicated Teams
Senior engineers in your time zone, embedded in your process.
- Model
- Monthly retainer per engineer, 3-month minimum
- Timeline
- Rolling, most accounts run 12 months or longer
- From
- $6,000 / engineer / month
You're probably here because
- Hiring senior engineers in the US is taking six months and losing to bigger offers.
- You have roadmap you can't staff, and contractors who vanish mid-sprint.
- An offshore vendor gave you cheap hours, a 12-hour lag, and code you had to rewrite.
- 04
Software Architecture
Decide well once, instead of paying for it every sprint.
- Model
- Fixed-price assessment or fractional retainer
- Timeline
- 2–5 weeks for an assessment
- From
- $12,000
You're probably here because
- The system worked at 100 users and is failing at 10,000.
- Every new feature takes longer than the last one, and nobody can explain why.
- You're about to acquire a company and need to know what its codebase is really worth.
- 05
Systems Integration
Make the software you already pay for work as one system.
- Model
- Fixed-scope per integration, or bundled into a retainer
- Timeline
- 3–8 weeks depending on system count
- From
- $8,500
You're probably here because
- The same customer record is entered by hand into three different systems.
- Your finance team reconciles two systems in a spreadsheet every month.
- A vendor says their API can do it and nobody internally can evaluate that claim.
- 06
Support & Modernization
Inherit the software you depend on and can no longer maintain.
- Model
- Paid audit, then stabilization project, then support retainer
- Timeline
- 1–2 week audit, 4–10 weeks stabilization
- From
- $6,000 audit · retainers from $3,500 / month
You're probably here because
- The developer who built your core system is unreachable.
- It runs on a framework version that stopped receiving security patches years ago.
- Deploys are manual, undocumented, and only one person has ever done one.
The stack your system already runs on
Listed honestly. These are stacks we can staff to a senior level today, not everything anyone here has once touched. If your system runs on something we don't list, ask; we'll tell you straight whether we're the right team for it.
Backend
01Where most of our depth sits. Laravel and .NET carry the majority of the business systems we run in production.
- PHP / Laravel
- .NET / C#
- Python
- Node.js / TypeScript
- FastAPI
- Django
- Express
- NestJS
- Symfony
Frontend
02React and Next.js by default. Server-rendered where it matters for SEO and first load, which for most business software is everywhere.
- React
- Next.js
- TypeScript
- Tailwind CSS
- Vue
- Livewire / Alpine
- Blazor
- React Native
Data
03Postgres unless there's a reason not to. Most performance problems we're called about are query and index problems, not database-choice problems.
- PostgreSQL
- MySQL / MariaDB
- Redis
- SQL Server
- MongoDB
- Elasticsearch
- pgvector
- ClickHouse
- BigQuery
Cloud & infrastructure
04Infrastructure as code, in your cloud account. We'll happily run something simple on a single server when that's genuinely the right answer.
- AWS
- Azure
- GCP
- DigitalOcean
- Cloudflare
- Linux
- Nginx
- Docker
- Terraform
- Vercel
- Kubernetes
AI & machine learning
05Applied, production-facing AI rather than research. The engineering that surrounds a model is where these projects are won or lost.
- Claude API
- OpenAI API
- RAG architectures
- Evaluation harnesses
- AWS Bedrock
- Azure OpenAI
- LangChain
- Vector search
- Fine-tuning
- PyTorch
Quality & operations
06The parts that decide whether software is still working six months after launch. Non-negotiable on everything we build.
- CI/CD pipelines
- Automated testing
- Observability
- Verified backups
- GitHub Actions
- Playwright
- PHPUnit
- pytest
- Sentry
- Load testing

Tell us what's slowing the business down
Thirty minutes with an engineer who can scope it. You'll leave with a view on approach, a budget range, and an honest answer about whether we're the right firm, including when we aren't.
