Websites, apps, and the boring parts that keep them running.
We build and host websites, webshops and mobile apps, handle branding, and automate the repetitive work that currently eats someone's afternoon. Small enough that you talk to the person who built it.
Locally, we also service the hardware it all runs on.
01 process
How we work
The same four steps, whether it is a webshop or a cron job.
- Discover
What actually needs solving — in your words, at your desk if local.
- Build
Short iterations you can look at, not a reveal at the end.
- Ship
Deployed, monitored, and handed over with the keys.
- Operate
Hosting, updates and the 3am problems — ours, not yours.
02 services
What we do
Anything marked soon is being set up and is not being quoted yet.
Websites & web apps

From a single well-built page to a multi-page site you can edit yourself.

-
Webshops & bookings
Selling, reserving, ticketing and recurring memberships.

The part behind the site
Logins, databases, mail and an admin page — the half nobody sees and everybody needs.
- User accounts and access levels
- Database design and migrations
- Admin/management screens
- Transactional mail
- Integrations with services you already use
-
Fixing an existing site
Inherited something slow, broken or unmaintainable? That is a normal starting point.

- Accessibility and mobile layout
- Migrating off a dead platform
- Taking over a site whose original builder is gone
Branding & marketing
×2-

A logo and a consistent look that survives contact with a printer.

- Colour, type and usage rules
- Stationery and signage artwork
-
Marketing material soon
Posters, flyers and short video for the things you actually run.

Hosting & maintenance
×2-

We host what we build, so there is one number to call when it breaks.
- Domain and DNS
- Certificates and mail
- Backups
- Uptime monitoring
-
Maintenance
Updates, monitoring and small changes, on a predictable arrangement.
- Framework and dependency updates
- Security advisories acted on, not filed
- Small content and layout changes
- A readable report of what changed
App development
×2-
Mobile apps
Android apps in Kotlin, with the web back end they talk to.
- Android (Kotlin/Compose)
- The API and database behind it
- Store release and signing
- Offline-first where it matters
-
Small tools
The internal thing that is currently a spreadsheet and three people remembering.
- Internal tools and dashboards
- Desktop utilities (Windows)
- One-off migrations and importers
Automation
×1-
Automating the repetitive part
If someone does it every week by hand, it is usually cheaper to have it done for them.
- Scheduled jobs and imports
- Moving data between systems that do not talk
- Generated reports and alerts
- Document and mail generation
Devices & hardware
×2-
PC building & servicing soon
Local, in person. Most people overbuy — a right-sized build costs less and lasts longer.
- Right-sized builds for normal use
- Upgrades and clean installs
- Cleanup, both dust and software
- Windows, Linux and Android
-
Backups & data recovery soon
Setting up a backup that runs, and attempting recovery when there was not one.
- Backup that actually runs unattended
- Restore tested, not assumed
- Drive recovery attempts — no promises, no fee for a failed attempt
