Not sure yet? Read this first.

A few sentences is plenty, we'll ask follow-ups.

One reply, from a person

You own the code from the first commit, and there is no mailing list waiting on the other side of this form.

Ownership
Yours from the first commit, in your repository.
Follow-up
One reply from a person. No sequence, no CRM.
Confidence
NDA before anything sensitive, just ask in the brief.
What we take on

Three kinds of brief, and most of them arrive together.

01

AI systems that survive contact with users

Voice and chat agents, RAG over your own data, model routing and cost control, eval suites so a prompt change is a measurable thing rather than a vibe. Shipped with retries, structured logs, and a bill you can predict.

02

Automation that replaces the spreadsheet

n8n and custom pipelines wired into the tools you already pay for: intake, routing, enrichment, reporting. The ones we run ourselves publish this site, so we are the first to notice when they break.

03

Web and mobile products, built to last

Next.js, TypeScript, Postgres or Mongo, React Native. Fast on a bad train connection, boring in the places that should be boring, and handed over so your team can keep going without us.

Before you write

The questions people ask on the call anyway.

01How much does a project cost?

Most engagements land between $10k and $50k, and the shape matters more than the number: a scoped MVP, a defined AI feature inside an existing product, or a monthly retainer for ongoing work. Tell us the budget you have rather than the one you think we want, and we will tell you honestly whether it buys the thing you described.

02Who owns the code?

You do, from the first commit. Work happens in your repository or one we transfer to you at handover, with no runtime dependency on anything we keep. Our free packs are MIT licensed for the same reason: we would rather be hired again than hold anyone hostage.

03We are a small team. Are we too small for you?

Probably not. We keep the client list short, so a project that would be rounding error at a large agency is a real engagement here. The one thing that does not work is a brief with no decision-maker in the room: if nobody on your side can say yes, the call will not go anywhere useful.

04How fast can you start?

Usually within two weeks, sometimes sooner for a scoped piece of work. We prefer two to six week sprints with something usable at the end of each one, rather than a six-month plan that nobody can course-correct.

05Do you do AI work, or just websites?

Both, and increasingly the first. Voice agents, retrieval systems, agent workflows, and the evaluation harnesses that keep them honest are a large share of what we ship now. The web work is what makes the AI work usable by an actual customer.
