The problem

Founders arrive with a validated idea and a prototype that cannot take money. The interesting feature is usually two weeks of work; the six weeks around it are tenancy, permissions, billing edge cases, and the deployment story — and that is where most first builds quietly fall over.

What we did

Tenancy is enforced at the database with row-level isolation rather than in application code, so a missed filter cannot leak another customer's data. Roles and permissions are modelled once and checked server-side. Billing runs through Stripe with webhooks reconciling state, so an upgrade, a downgrade, or a failed card resolves itself without a support ticket. Everything ships through CI with a tested rollback path.

What you get

A product that can onboard a paying customer on day one: sign-up, workspace, team invitations, plan changes, invoices, and an analytics view — deployed to your own cloud account with the source in your repository.

Engagements

Tell us what is breaking.

Send the problem, not a polished brief. An engineer reads every enquiry and replies within two working days with a real technical opinion — including when the honest answer is that you do not need us.

  • Reply from an engineer, not a salesperson
  • Fixed scope and price before any build starts
  • Your code, your cloud, your repo — from day one
