Services & Engagement Models
Crafted software, priced with clarity.
We sell outcomes, craft, and durability — not billed hours. Whether you need a rapid design sprint, a production MVP build, or an ongoing product partner, every engagement is structured with transparent scope and fixed milestone pricing.
Five focused service lines.
Product Design & Strategy
De-risk your product before writing code.
Discovery workshops, user research framing, information architecture, UX wireframes, design systems in Figma, and interactive clickable prototypes.
- Who It's For
- Founders with a validated concept needing shape; product teams modernising complex user flows.
- The Outcome
- A tested, build-ready prototype and UI system that eliminates engineering guesswork.
Product Engineering & Build
Production software engineered to endure.
Full-stack web application development, MVP builds, custom API architectures, database design, AI workflows (retrieval, agentic tooling), and automated CI/CD pipelines.
- Who It's For
- Startups moving from prototype to live market; businesses replacing brittle off-the-shelf tools.
- The Outcome
- Shipped, tested software with clean documentation, zero technical debt, and seamless team handoff.
Growth & Digital Presence
Public digital presence that commands authority.
High-craft marketing websites, conversion landing pages, editorial publication platforms, SEO foundations, and Core Web Vitals optimization.
- Who It's For
- Companies launching new products, refreshing their digital front door, or establishing category authority.
- The Outcome
- A lightning-fast, accessible web platform that converts visitors and elevates your brand.
Ongoing Care & Retainers
Keeping your software fast, secure, and evolving.
Dependency maintenance, uptime monitoring, security patching, continuous UX iteration, and dedicated SLA response times.
- Who It's For
- Businesses with live software that need reliable ongoing product capacity without hiring a full in-house platform team.
- The Outcome
- Software that stays secure, modern, and quietly evolving month over month.
Own Products & Ventures
The products we bet our own name on.
We reinvest our services margin and engineering playbooks into building, owning, and operating our own digital products. Client work and internal ventures share the exact same design system and high bar for craft.
- How It Cross-Pollinates
- Live proof of studio taste and a second revenue stream that guarantees our engineering culture stays sharp.

How we structure partnerships.
Fixed-Scope Milestone Project
Best for packaged offerings and well-defined builds. Structured with a 40%–50% deposit and milestone review gates on Net 14 terms.
Monthly Retainer
Best for continuous design, build, or ongoing care capacity. Billed 100% in advance on the 1st of each service month.
Sprint-Based / Time & Materials
Best for exploratory R&D and fast-moving unknown scopes. 2-week sprint blocks billed in advance against our standard role-based rate card ($600–$1,600/day).
Equity / Build-for-Share
Select high-conviction early-stage startups where we invest studio craft in exchange for equity or revenue share alongside reduced cash fees.
Frequently asked questions.
How quickly can we start?
Once the Statement of Work (SOW) is executed and the initial deposit clears, our structured 48-hour onboarding workflow begins immediately, with the Kickoff Alignment Workshop held in Week 1.
How are milestone payments structured?
Fixed-scope projects require an upfront deposit (50% for packages under $15k; 40% for larger builds), followed by deliverable-tied milestone payments on Net 14 terms.
Who owns the Intellectual Property?
You do. Full copyright and custom source code ownership transfer to you upon 100% clearance of the final invoice. We retain only our pre-existing background toolkits, which you receive a perpetual royalty-free license to use.
What happens if our scope expands mid-flight?
We protect your budget from silent scope creep. Any out-of-scope additions are itemized in a 1-page Change Order with clear fee and timeline impacts before work begins.
