How we work

Everything in writing.

You know the price before we start, see the plan every week and the progress every day, and everything we build is yours. Here's exactly how that works.

01

Get a fixed price before we start

After a 30-minute call you get an itemized quote, usually within two hours. The price is fixed and paid in milestones as the work is delivered.

02

See the plan, week by week

A written plan shows what ships each week and who builds it. Any change arrives as a written note with its price, and nothing moves until you approve it.

Field Manual

How every engagement runs.

The first call

Thirty minutes with a senior engineer. We ask about scope, timing and budget, and you can ask us anything.

The plan and price

A written plan and a fixed price, usually within two hours of the call: what we'll build, week by week, and who builds it.

Updates and demos

A written update every working day, a recorded demo every Friday and a sprint report every two weeks.

Changes

A change to scope arrives as a written note with its price and date. Nothing moves until you approve it.

Handoff

Your repository, accounts and documentation, a handoff pack and 30 days of care after launch.

AI policy

AI writes the boilerplate. Senior engineers own every decision.

Where we use it
Boilerplate code, tests, documentation drafts and review assistance.
Where we don't
Architecture and product decisions, and security-sensitive code without a senior review.
Your data
Never shared with third-party AI tools without your written approval.
Review
Every line that ships is reviewed by a senior engineer.
Your choice
Ask us to switch AI tools off for your project, and we will.
Trust and security

Plain answers for your security team.

Access
