Custom software and AI automation for businesses outgrowing spreadsheets.

We replace fragile spreadsheets and manual handoffs with custom dashboards, integrations, and practical AI. First milestones typically land around $2k–$20k—we scope tight, ship a small slice fast, then expand. Every milestone includes our Scope-Lock Satisfaction Guarantee.

Workflow triage

Diagnose one workflow. Get a bounded recommendation.

Answer a few targeted questions about one bottleneck and we’ll tell you whether a small first milestone is justified—usually around $2k–$20k depending on scope.

Scope-Lock Satisfaction Guarantee

Scope-Lock Satisfaction Guarantee: if the milestone does not match what we scoped, we keep working free until it does—or refund it if we miss after you hold up your end.

Engagement Standard ~30 days Focused scope: as fast as 2 weeks

How we engage

Most engagements ship in about 30 days. Focused, well-scoped work can land in as fast as 2 weeks. Here is what either path looks like.

Enterprise payments & payment-processor experience
Government cybersecurity background
Senior, vetted engineers — no juniors, no offshoring
  • Day 0

    Onboarding

    We send a short onboarding intake to gather system access, point-of-contact info, and your top three desired outcomes, then book a free working session — not a sales call.

  • Days 1–7

    Discovery & scope

    Fast-track · Days 1–3

    A senior engineer pairs with your team to map the real workflow, name the constraints, and lock the scope. You get a written plan with milestones, risks, and a fixed-or-not-to-exceed budget before we touch a keyboard.

  • Days 8–14

    Architecture & build setup

    Fast-track · Days 4–7

    We stand up the repo, environments, CI, and the core data and security model — the same hardened patterns we used in payments and government cybersecurity work, scaled to your project's risk profile.

  • Days 15–25

    Build & review

    Fast-track · Days 8–11

    Short iteration loops with weekly working demos. You see real software in your environment every week, with code review, tests, and observability built in from the first commit — not bolted on later.

  • Days 26–30

    Launch & handoff

    Fast-track · Days 12–14

    Final hardening, runbook, monitoring, and a structured handoff so your team owns the system on day one. We stay on call for the post-launch window and only step back when the system is quietly running itself.
