Software development
Applications and APIs built properly — designed, architected and shipped by someone who has done it at scale.
Software and web consultancy
We've spent decades building software, much of it the tools other developers depend on, at Microsoft, GitHub, Auth0, Netflix and MongoDB.
Services
Web sites & applications
Designed and built end to end — customer-facing applications, product interfaces, marketing sites and documentation.
Developer & AI tooling
Libraries, SDKs, components and internal tooling — plus the MCP servers, AI feature integrations and model evaluation tools.
Data extraction & restoration
Getting data out of systems that don't want to give it up, and bringing it back to life — undocumented formats, dead platforms, old backups and legacy databases.

View her profileHow we work
Specialist work, documented and handed over.
Software development, web sites and applications, developer and AI tooling, and data extraction and restoration. If a problem sits outside what we do well, we say so in the first conversation.
Experience at platform scale
We've built the tooling, identity and data platforms other developers rely on, and every project draws on that experience.
Built to be handed over
Everything ships documented, tested and structured so whoever maintains it next can read it without a handover call.
Remote, on UK time
We're in Guernsey: a full working day with Europe, a morning with the US East Coast. We travel when being in the room improves the work.
From the blog
What we've learned building software — and what we think about it.
How the sites we build are different
No hosting fees, no downtime, no database to buckle under load, built to be found by search and AI, and everything under your control.
Moving content from WordPress to Markdown
How to get your content out of WordPress as Markdown: the export, the conversion, your images and URLs, and what tends to bite along the way.
Do you still need WordPress?
Many sites run WordPress to serve the same content to every visitor. What does that cost in speed, security and upkeep, and what can you use instead?
