Fixed-scope project
A defined outcome for a fixed price and date, built by the engineers who wrote the estimate.
- Written scope and milestones
- Payments tied to delivery
- Demo at the end of every sprint

Work with us
Three ways to work with the engineers.
Pick the model that fits your budget and how much of your own engineering time you have. You can switch models as the product matures.
Ongoing work
Monthly retainer
A named senior engineer working on your product every month, joining your standups and your repositories.
- Agreed hours each month
- Your process, your tools
- Adjust or pause with notice
Discovery sprint
A short, paid sprint that ends with a scoped plan, an architecture and an estimate you can take to any team.
- Workshops in your time zone
- Architecture and prototype
- No commitment to build with us
How an engagement starts
- 01
Tell us about it
Day 1
Send a short brief: what you are building, who it is for and the dates that matter.
- 02
We reply
Within one working day
A senior engineer answers with clarifying questions and a suggested next step.
- 03
A 30-minute call
In your time zone
We talk through goals and constraints. You get our honest view, including when we are not the right fit.
- 04
Written estimate
After the call
Scope, approach, timeline and a cost range with the assumptions behind it. NDA on request.
Ways of working
Good work comes from a small team that stays close.
There are four of us, and that is the point. You get senior people on every task, short feedback loops and the same faces from the first call to launch.
- Senior engineers on every project, no hand-offs
- A written scope and estimate before work starts
- A working demo at the end of every sprint
- Remote-first team. We adjust our working hours to overlap with yours, wherever you are.
- Remote-first
- Hours that overlap with yours
- Sprint demos
- A working demo every sprint
- In writing
- Estimates and project updates
- Small by design
- A limited number of projects at a time
-
Say it plainly
Honest estimates, written updates and bad news early, with no jargon to hide behind.
-
Small on purpose
We take on a limited number of projects at a time, so each one gets real attention. If we are full, we say so.
-
Ownership
The engineer who scopes a piece of work builds it, so decisions are made where the work is.
Join our network
Join our specialist network
We are a small team, and now and then a project needs a specialist: a designer, a QA or security engineer, a mobile or data engineer. If you are an independent senior professional and would like to hear about that work, send us a short note and a link to your best work. A person reads every message.

- QA automation
- Security
