Web, mobile & MVPs

Product engineering

Complete products front to back — backend, web and mobile — from a first version scoped small enough to put in front of users to the architecture it grows into. Real deploys, not throwaway prototypes.

All services

Typically built with

  • Node.js / Express
  • React.js / Next.js
  • React Native / Expo / Flutter
  • Ruby on Rails / Python
  • TypeScript / GraphQL
  • PostgreSQL

Scope

What this covers.

  • Rapid MVP build

    A first version cut down to the one idea worth testing, and built properly enough to put in front of real users — not a demo that gets thrown away the week after.

  • Full-stack web

    The whole web stack under one team: the backend and API, and a front end that is fast and accessible. Nothing falls down the gap between two vendors.

  • Cross-platform mobile

    One codebase that ships to both iOS and Android, submitted to the app stores for you. Mobile stops being a second project with a second team.

  • AI-driven features

    AI put where it earns its place in the product — a feature that does real work, not a chatbot bolted on because the category is hot.

  • A foundation that scales

    Built so the first version becomes your v1, not the rewrite you do six months after raising. The architecture grows with the traction instead of buckling under it.

What gets cut

The hard part is not building it. It is deciding what not to.

A first version is defined by its exclusions. Scope gets cut at week one rather than argued about at week six, and what survives is the shortest path to something real users can actually use — on web or mobile — with the architecture to add the rest once you know which of it matters.

scope · sample

  • Email + password sign-in — in version one
  • SSO, SAML, SCIM provisioning — cut from version one
  • One core workflow, end to end — in version one
  • Workflow templates and duplication — cut from version one
  • Take a payment — in version one
  • Multi-currency and tax rules — cut from version one
  • Admin can see every account — in version one
  • Role-based permissions matrix — cut from version one
  • Usage analytics dashboard — cut from version one
  • Mobile app — cut from version one
  • Public API + webhooks — cut from version one
  • White-label theming — cut from version one

v0Sketch

Boxes on a page. Hours, not days — its only job is to be argued with.

v0.1Clickable

The same layout, wired end to end. Enough to watch someone fail at it.

In front of people who did not build it, while the idea still matters.

Illustrative · order of work, not a timetable

Everything cut is a decision on a list, not a thing nobody thought of.

How the work runs

The order things happen in.

Scope gets cut at week one rather than argued about at week six. Progress is visible daily, and a change to the shape of the build is a re-spec rather than something that quietly absorbs the schedule.

  1. Cut scope to the one thing that proves the idea

  2. Ship to real users fast, instrument from day one

  3. Build on a foundation that scales instead of throwaway code

  4. Iterate weekly on real usage and feedback

How it gets built

One team, in front of users early.

Interface, API, data and the mobile app get built by the same people — and a first version is worth building only if someone outside the room uses it while the idea still matters.

Before you ask

Questions we get.

  • How fast can you build an MVP?

    It depends on scope, and cutting the scope is the first piece of work. What we commit to is a first version narrow enough to put in front of real users while the idea still matters, with a date agreed before we start rather than discovered on the way.

  • Is the MVP throwaway code?

    No — we build on a clean, scalable foundation (Rails / Node / React) so your MVP becomes your v1 and grows with traction instead of needing a rewrite.

  • Do you build mobile apps too?

    Yes — one codebase for both iOS and Android, built with React Native or Flutter, and we handle the signing, the release setup, and submission to both app stores.

  • Can you add AI features?

    Yes — AI is core to what we do. We build LLM features, AI agents, and automation into products where they create real value.

  • Do you work with non-technical founders?

    Yes — many of our clients are non-technical founders. We handle product, engineering, and the technical decisions so you can focus on customers and fundraising.

  • Is a custom build overkill for us?

    Sometimes. If a no-code tool or an off-the-shelf app covers what you need, that is cheaper and we will say so. This is for when the product is the thing you are building the company around, and it has to be yours — the data, the logic and the experience — rather than rented.
