Our Capabilities

What we
build.

Five capabilities, one standard: production-grade software that scales. Every engagement is scoped to your specific problem, not pulled from a playbook.

Web Platforms

Fast, indexable, and built for traffic.

We build web applications that load in under a second, rank in search, and handle traffic spikes without intervention. Customer portals, internal tools, dashboards — server-rendered, edge-deployed, and observable from day one.

Mobile Apps

Native feel on every device.

iOS, Android, or cross-platform. We build mobile products that feel fast, work offline, and survive App Store review. From first prototype to production release — we own the iterations that follow.

AI & Intelligence

AI that works in production, not just in demos.

Document processing, predictive analytics, conversational interfaces, computer vision. We build AI features that handle real workloads, integrate cleanly into existing systems, and stay within budget as they scale.

Cloud & Infrastructure

Infrastructure you never have to think about.

Auto-scaling, self-healing cloud architectures with monitoring, alerting, and automated deployments from day one. Designed to cost only what they need to, and to wake up the right person when something breaks.

How we engage

Three ways to work with us.

Fixed Scope

Build a defined product.

Discovery, spec, build, hand-off. You get a fixed timeline and concrete deliverables after a paid one-week scope. Best when the problem is specific and the outcome is concrete.

  • Kickoff in 1–2 weeks
  • Weekly milestone reviews
  • Two rounds of revision included
  • Code & ownership transfer at end
6–12 wk · sprintStart a build
Most picked
Retainer

Keep shipping every month.

Continuous engineering capacity. Monthly cadence, ongoing roadmap, fast turnarounds. Best when you have a roadmap, not a single project.

  • Senior team of 2–4
  • Monthly health reviews
  • Pause or scale anytime
  • Direct Slack with the team
Monthly · ongoingSee retainer
Embedded

Plug into your team.

Senior engineers embedded inside your team. We lead architecture and implementation, your team owns the roadmap. Full hand-off when ready.

  • 1–3 engineers, 3+ months
  • Onboarded in your tools
  • Pair with your engineers daily
  • Knowledge transfer built in

  • Three models. Fixed scope gets a flat price after a one-week paid discovery. Retainer is a monthly fee with a defined team and capacity, billed in advance. Embedded is per-engineer-per-month, with a 3-month minimum and 30-day notice. We share the spreadsheet up front — no margin games.

  • Defaults are TypeScript, Next.js, Postgres, and AWS — we know them deeply and they cover 80% of jobs. We also work in React Native, Python (for ML/data), Go (for infra), and Rust where it earns its place. We're stack-agnostic when you have an existing one to extend.

  • Yes — embedded is built for this. Our engineers join your standups, use your tools, and pair with yours daily. We bring senior architectural muscle without taking over. Your team owns the roadmap; we accelerate the execution.

  • Usually 1–2 weeks from signed agreement. Right now we have capacity for two new builds in Q2 2026. Discovery can begin within 5 business days of an intro call.

  • Always — happy to sign yours, or send our standard mutual NDA. Our default contracts include IP assignment, confidentiality, and a non-solicit. No discovery fees, ever.

  • Most engagements roll into a small ongoing retainer — monitoring, perf budgets, a health review every quarter, and on-call backup. The hardest scaling problems show up after launch; we stay close so they don't become rewrites.
