What we do

Support, modernize, and improve what already works

Instead of pushing for a risky “big rewrite,” we help you evolve your existing application so it stays stable, secure, and easier to change over time.

Ongoing maintenance & support

Subscription

Long-term technical support for production systems, handled by a team that treats your application like a living product—not a one-time project.

  • Routine updates and bug fixes
  • Monitoring and incident response guidance
  • Small improvements rolled out continuously
Ideal for teams with limited internal capacity

Feature development & refinements

Delivery

When you need to ship new functionality, we help you design, implement, and refine features while keeping the rest of the system stable.

  • Product enhancements & UX improvements
  • Refactoring to reduce technical debt
  • Collaborative planning with your team
Keep shipping while cleaning up the codebase

Upgrades, audits & consulting

Advisory

Focused initiatives to bring your stack up to date, understand risks, and guide your internal team with a clear modernization roadmap.

  • Rails & library upgrades
  • Code and infrastructure audits
  • Workshops and training for internal teams
Make informed, low-risk technical decisions
How we work

Long-term partner, not a one-off vendor

We’re most effective when we act as an extension of your internal team—owning the health, evolution, and risk profile of your existing applications together with you.

Extension of your internal team

  • We join your existing processes and tools (Slack, Jira, GitHub, etc.).
  • We collaborate with product, engineering, and operations stakeholders.
  • We help you build habits: better deployments, better testing, better visibility.
  • We reduce the risk of “tribal knowledge” being held by just a few people.

Minimizing risk, not just shipping tickets

  • We prioritize stability, security, and technical debt alongside new features.
  • We plan changes in small, reversible steps—especially for upgrades.
  • We communicate in plain language so non-technical stakeholders stay informed.
  • We help you prepare systems for future scale instead of quick fixes only.
Who we help

Teams with critical apps they can’t afford to lose

Many of our clients already rely on their applications for revenue and operations— but don’t have the time, budget, or appetite for a full “rewrite from scratch.”

Organizations we’re a fit for

  • E-commerce businesses where every outage costs real money.
  • Education platforms that must remain reliable during key seasons.
  • Healthcare and related services where stability and compliance matter.
  • Internal tools that quietly run day-to-day operations.

If your app is important to the business but feels fragile, dated, or risky to touch, we can help you move from “we hope it doesn’t break” to “we know how to evolve it.”

When a full rewrite isn’t the answer

  • You can’t pause the business to rebuild everything from zero.
  • You need to keep shipping features while gradually reducing risk.
  • You want a realistic modernization path, not a multi-year gamble.
  • You prefer a partner who will say “not yet” to risky changes.

Our job is to help your existing product become more reliable, maintainable, and comfortable to work in—so your team can focus on what’s next.
