Built around how your business already works.
Most of this work starts the same way: something important is being done by hand, repeatedly, by someone whose time is worth more than that. What gets built depends entirely on what that something is.
Not a template shop. Not a no-code stack held together with tape.
The work is ordinary software engineering applied to unglamorous business problems — done properly, so it keeps working after the invoice is paid.
Apps that work with no signal
Offline-first mobile capture with a local database as the source of truth, and a sync engine that resumes instead of restarting. Built for crews in basements, trenches and dead zones.
Pipelines that don't lose things
Durable queues, idempotent writes, explicit state machines and per-item status. When something fails it retries; when it keeps failing it tells you, loudly, with a button to re-run it.
Integration with systems that resist it
Locked-down tenants, security policies that block the obvious route, portals with no API at all. There is almost always a path — it just has to be found, proven, and then made boring.
Data models you can still change later
Postgres, migrations under version control, row-level security so access is enforced by the database rather than hoped for in the UI. Schema decisions made once, deliberately.
AI where it earns its place
Transcription, extraction, classification, natural-language lookups — used when a model genuinely beats a rule, and skipped when it doesn't. No AI theatre on top of a problem a query solves.
Systems that stay run, not just built
Monitoring, alerting, runbooks, incident write-ups. Every failure in production ends in a document explaining what happened and what changed so it cannot happen the same way twice.
Common problems I've already solved once.
These are patterns, not products off a shelf — each one gets shaped around how your business actually runs. They're here because they're the requests that come up most, and because they're a cheap way to find out whether we work well together.
Tell me the thing your team retypes every week.
Thirty minutes, no pitch. I’ll tell you whether it’s worth automating, roughly what it would cost, and if the honest answer is “don’t bother” — you’ll hear that too.
