Services

Six kinds of work in three groups: building software, running the systems it lives on, and automating the work around it. Most projects touch more than one.

Software development

Applications built for one business's real process, and our own product.

Custom software development

Off-the-shelf software makes you work its way. We build web applications, internal tools, integrations and command-line utilities shaped around how one person or business actually operates.

The work doesn't end at launch. We document what we build and keep maintaining it, so the tool keeps up as the business changes.

  • Web applications and internal tools
  • Integrations between the services you already pay for
  • Data migration, cleanup and reporting
  • Maintenance and support after launch

Mobile apps

Native mobile apps that start fast, feel at home on the device and work offline where it matters.

We take an app from first prototype through App Store submission, and keep shipping updates after release, including the server and API behind it when the app needs one.

  • iPhone and iPad apps
  • Android and cross-platform when the project calls for it
  • App Store and Google Play submission and review
  • The backend and API that go with the app

SMM (Social Media Manager)

SMM is the product we're building in-house. Write a post once, adapt it for each network, schedule it on a calendar, publish it, and see each channel's statistics side by side.

SMM is in active development and access is currently by invitation.

  • One composer for every network
  • Calendar scheduling and publishing
  • Statistics for every channel side by side
  • Operable by AI agents through scoped access keys

Infrastructure and operations

The servers, networks and pipelines underneath the software, designed and looked after.

IT systems design and management

A small business runs on more infrastructure than it usually realizes: a domain, email, a few servers or cloud accounts, a network, and backups that someone hopes are working.

We design that setup so the pieces fit together, write down how it works, and manage it from then on, so it isn't something you have to think about.

  • Linux server, VPS and cloud setup
  • Email, DNS and domain management
  • Private networking and secure remote access
  • Backups that are tested by actually restoring them
  • Plain-language documentation of what you have

DevOps

Releasing software should be boring. We set up the pipelines that test, build and deploy your code, the monitoring that tells you when something breaks, and the update process that keeps dependencies patched.

Every deployment becomes a script you can read and run again, not a list of steps someone remembers.

  • Continuous integration and delivery pipelines
  • Scripted, repeatable deployments
  • Uptime monitoring and alerting
  • Dependency and security update management
  • Web server and TLS configuration

Automation

Taking the repetitive work off people's desks, and keeping the automation honest.

AI process automation and management

Most businesses have hours of repetitive work hiding in inboxes, spreadsheets and copying between systems. We map those processes, work out where AI agents and integrations genuinely help, and build the automation.

Then we manage it: watching the results, keeping costs under control, and keeping a person in the loop wherever a mistake would matter.

  • A review of your processes to find what's worth automating
  • AI agents and language-model integrations with your existing tools
  • Document and data extraction, summaries and first drafts
  • Cost tracking and usage limits
  • Ongoing monitoring and adjustment
