Yes, always. Your GitHub, your infra, your decisions.

Can you take over someone else's half-finished app?

Sometimes. We'll do a paid audit first ($500) — honest assessment of whether to continue or rebuild.

Do you do AI features?

If they're useful, yes. We won't bolt GPT into things that don't need it.

Service · Web Apps

Web apps, dashboards, MVPs.

Need more than a website? We build the full thing — auth, database, admin, the lot. SaaS, internal tools, client portals.

Typical MVP build

Ruthlessly scoped. Feature creep is what kills MVPs, so we push back.

Auth

Included in every build

Magic link or password, MFA available, SSO where the stack allows it.

Stripe

Or whatever you use

Payments, subscriptions, invoices, webhooks — not as an add-on.

Day 1

Monitoring in place

Sentry, uptime, error alerts. No silent failures.

What you get

What's in, what's not.

INCLUDED

Full-stack build

Frontend, backend, database, auth. One team.

INCLUDED

Design included

UI that doesn't look like it was made by a developer.

INCLUDED

Deployed, monitored

Vercel/Fly/Railway — whatever suits. Error tracking from day one.

INCLUDED

Built to be handed over

Standard stack, documented code.

NOT US

Blockchain for the sake of it

Boring tech. Postgres > ledger.

NOT US

Microservices for a 50-user app

We scope to reality.

Deliverables

What's in an MVP.

An MVP, done properly, should feel like a v1 — not a throwaway.

Auth + user model

Signup, login, password reset, invite flow. Magic link or password. MFA optional.

Admin surface

A real admin UI so your team can see users, impersonate, toggle features, refund. Not just a psql terminal.

Billing

Stripe (or equivalent) integration: subscriptions, tiers, trials, cancellation, invoicing.

Core workflow

The 3–5 screens that make up your actual product. Designed, built, tested on real data.

Background jobs

Email sending, reports, webhooks — handled in a queue, monitored, retry-able.

Ops basics

Error tracking, logs, uptime, backups, staging env. So you can sleep at night.

How it works

A typical engagement.

01 · Week 1

Figure out the actual problem

What needs to exist, what doesn't.

02 · Week 2

Design the flow

Wireframes, then high-fidelity. Clickable prototype.

03 · Week 3–8

Build

Iterative sprints. Weekly demo, you try it, we adjust.

04 · Launch

Ship + train

Go live. We train your team on the admin.

Deep-dive

How we keep MVPs small.

One workflow, done well

Pick the one thing your app must do. Do that at v1 quality. Everything else is v2.

Defer the account tiers

Start with one plan, one price. Pricing experiments happen post-launch, not during build.

No bespoke UI

Use shadcn/ui or a similar component kit as a base. Your product is the workflow, not the dropdown.

Postgres + one queue

Boring infra. Postgres for data, one queue for jobs, one email sender. No microservices until there is pain.

Cut the "would be nice" features

Every "while we are at it" costs 2 weeks. We keep a v2 list instead — and it gets shorter by itself.

How we stack up

Build path comparison.

	No-code MVP	Solo dev ($15–30k)	Us ($20–45k range)	Venture studio ($80k+)
Timeline	2–6 wks	3–6 months	6–10 weeks	3–4 months
Design included	Template	Rarely	Yes	Yes
Will scale past 1k users	Sometimes	Often no	Yes	Yes
Code you own	No	Yes	Yes	Yes, sometimes equity
Post-launch iteration	Platform limits	If they stay	Retainer optional	Contracted
Good for	Validation, internal	Smaller scopes	Real MVPs	Funded startups

What a client said

“We had a spreadsheet that was making us $40k a month. Eight weeks later it was a real product with 60 paying customers and I could finally close the sheet.”
