Catalogue
Twelve services, one studio.
Each service below describes what it includes, the business situation it usually addresses, how the work is approached, and the practical value it may provide. Nothing here is promised as a guaranteed outcome.
Custom software development
What it includes
New applications built from a written specification: data models, business logic, user interfaces, background processes and administrative tooling.
Business need
Organisations whose operational processes have outgrown spreadsheets, off-the-shelf tools or a mesh of manual work.
How we approach it
We start with a discovery phase to model the workflow, then build in iterative slices with weekly demos. Each release adds working functionality, not a fragment.
Practical value
A single, well-modelled application that fits the business exactly and can be maintained and extended over years.
Corporate website development
What it includes
Marketing sites, corporate portals and content platforms — engineered for performance, accessibility and search.
Business need
Companies whose current site was assembled ad-hoc, is slow to update, or does not reflect the operation behind it.
How we approach it
We design an information architecture, produce a component system, and build the site on a modern framework with a content model that non-engineers can operate.
Practical value
A site that loads quickly, remains accessible on any device, and can be updated without an engineer for every change.
Web application development
What it includes
Customer portals, dashboards, internal tools, admin consoles, self-service platforms and any authenticated web software with real business logic.
Business need
Teams that need software their users open every day — where usability, correctness and predictability matter more than novelty.
How we approach it
React and TypeScript on the frontend, a considered backend behind it, real authentication and role model, and a design system built to survive contact with real users.
Practical value
A durable application that the team can actually rely on to run the work, not a demo that has to be babysat.
Product interface development
What it includes
Design-led interface work for digital products: interaction design, prototyping, component libraries and production-ready front-end implementation.
Business need
Product teams that have a working backend and a rough idea, and need the interface layer built at a professional standard.
How we approach it
We work in short cycles with your product and design people, prototype in code where possible, and finish with a maintainable component set documented for internal use.
Practical value
A product interface that is coherent, accessible and easy for other engineers to extend.
API development & integration
What it includes
Public and private APIs, service-to-service integrations, event-driven pipelines and connectors between third-party systems.
Business need
Businesses whose value comes from making several systems co-operate — ERPs, CRMs, billing platforms, payment providers, logistics tools.
How we approach it
REST, GraphQL or gRPC as appropriate, versioned contracts, defensive error handling, idempotent operations, and end-to-end observability.
Practical value
Integrations that keep working when a third party changes their API, and that are safe to modify without unexpected side effects.
Legacy system modernisation
What it includes
Refactoring, incremental rewrites, database migrations, cloud migration and the gradual replacement of aging applications.
Business need
Organisations running critical software that has become expensive to change, hard to hire for, or difficult to operate safely.
How we approach it
We prefer strangler-pattern rewrites over big-bang replacements: introducing new services alongside the legacy system and moving traffic across in controlled steps.
Practical value
A migration path that keeps the business running throughout, without a moment where everything changes at once.
Cloud architecture
What it includes
Cloud environment design across AWS, GCP, Azure and hybrid deployments, described in infrastructure-as-code and structured for cost predictability.
Business need
Teams moving to the cloud, consolidating multiple accounts, or trying to understand and control a cloud bill that has become unpredictable.
How we approach it
Environments defined in Terraform or equivalent, clear separation between staging and production, network and identity policies written down, and a documented deployment model.
Practical value
Infrastructure that can be rebuilt from source, understood by a new engineer within a day, and reasoned about for cost.
DevOps & deployment workflows
What it includes
CI/CD pipelines, container orchestration, environment automation, observability, incident response and on-call setup.
Business need
Engineering teams whose deployments have become slow, manual or fragile — or who have never had a proper delivery pipeline in place.
How we approach it
We work with existing tools where possible (GitHub Actions, GitLab, ArgoCD, Kubernetes), and prefer boring, well-documented pipelines over bespoke automation.
Practical value
Deployments that happen many times a day without ceremony, and that can be recovered from without waking anyone up.
Technical consulting
What it includes
Architecture reviews, technology selection, second opinions on RFPs, due diligence on inherited codebases and short focused engagements to unblock a specific decision.
Business need
Founders, CTOs and product leaders who need an outside engineering perspective on a decision they have to justify internally.
How we approach it
A short discovery followed by a written report and a working session. We describe options, trade-offs and recommendations in plain language, with the technical reasoning attached.
Practical value
A defensible technical decision backed by written analysis you can share with your team, board or investors.
Software maintenance
What it includes
Ongoing support, bug fixing, dependency upgrades, minor enhancements and operational responsibility for existing systems.
Business need
Organisations running software they depend on but do not have the internal team to maintain — or who need to give their existing team room to focus on new work.
How we approach it
A service-level agreement that fits the business, a shared backlog, monthly reporting on what changed, and a documented handover so nobody is trapped in the arrangement.
Practical value
Software that continues to evolve safely over years, without accumulating the kind of debt that eventually forces a rewrite.
Performance optimisation
What it includes
Front-end performance work, database query analysis, caching strategy, service tuning and load testing.
Business need
Applications that were fast at launch and have gradually become slow — or that are hitting limits at higher scale than they were designed for.
How we approach it
Measurement first: real profiling under representative load, then targeted changes with before/after evidence. No speculative rewrites.
Practical value
Concrete, quantified improvements in Core Web Vitals, response times or throughput — and a clear picture of what to work on next.
Security-focused engineering
What it includes
Threat modelling, secure coding reviews, authentication and authorisation design, secrets management, data protection and pre-audit remediation.
Business need
Teams preparing for a security review, handling regulated data, or aware that their current security posture has drifted from where it should be.
How we approach it
We work against recognised references — OWASP ASVS, CIS benchmarks, ISO 27001 controls — and produce written findings with concrete remediation, prioritised by impact.
Practical value
A meaningfully smaller attack surface and a written record of what was reviewed, what was changed, and what remains.
