Hi, I'm the product designer
I'm the developer
Devops. I keep it all running

Everything critical
about a product
happens before code

We start with the experience — the problem it solves, without new headaches for the people using it. One small team, responsible for the quality.

Recent work

What we do

01

Web design and development

Marketing sites, customer portals and internal tools — designed and built by the same team, so nothing is lost in a handoff.

02

App design and development

iOS and Android, from the first flow to the store listing. Built to work on the phones and connections your users actually have.

03

DevOps for small startups

Deployments, monitoring and backups set up properly at a size that suits a small team — without hiring for it.

How we work

Design

Designed around real users, not the spec sheet

We pay close attention to how your users actually work, so the design solves the real problem, not the one on paper.

Build

Software built for how you actually work

The whole product, including the parts nobody demos: logins, permissions, invoices and the admin screens your staff live in.

Run

Updates, backups and monitoring, handled

Deployments, backups and alerts are set up in code and documented, so how your software runs is written down rather than remembered.

How a project goes

Talk

Half an hour, free. No sales deck.

You explain what’s wrong or what you want to build. We ask a lot of questions. If we’re not the right fit, we say so and point you to someone who is.

  • ✓You describe the problem in your own words
  • ✓We ask what “fixed” would look like
  • ✓An honest yes or no within a day

Thanks for the call. Yes — we can help. The first thing we’d fix is the hand-off between dispatch and drivers. Want to start with a week of understanding?

  • ✓A plan with a price on it — yours to keep
