Our toolkit

Fewer tools, understood deeply.

We resist the urge to collect technology. A smaller toolkit means we know each part to the ground — its edges, its failure modes, the moment it stops being the right choice. That knowledge is what you're really paying for.

A structured lattice of interconnected technology modules arranged around a central core.

Proven before new

We adopt technology once it's earned trust in production — ours or the wider field's — not because it's the talk of a conference.

Right-sized

The smallest tool that fits the job. We'd rather run a boring database well than a fashionable one badly.

Yours to keep

We favour open, well-supported tools your team can hire for and maintain — never a corner you can't get out of.

By discipline

What we build with.

Architecture

01

The patterns that decide how well a system ages.

Domain-driven design Event-driven architecture Modular monoliths Microservices CQRS & event sourcing API-first design

Backend

02

Languages and runtimes we know intimately.

TypeScript / Node.js Go Python PostgreSQL Redis gRPC & REST GraphQL

Frontend

03

Interfaces that feel considered and stay fast.

React Next.js TypeScript Design systems Accessibility (WCAG) Web performance

Cloud

04

Foundations we run and reason about with confidence.

AWS Google Cloud Kubernetes Serverless Managed data services Edge delivery

DevOps

05

The automation that makes releases uneventful.

Terraform GitHub Actions Containerisation Observability Progressive delivery Infrastructure as code

Security

06

Protection woven through, not bolted on at the end.

Threat modelling Zero-trust access Secrets management Dependency scanning Encryption in transit & at rest Audit & compliance
Integrations

We make your existing tools cooperate.

Most organisations don't need more software — they need what they already have to work together. We connect the systems that run your business into something coherent, with dependable contracts and clean seams between them.

See our integration work

Payments & billing

Reliable money movement and reconciliation you can audit.

Identity & access

Single sign-on and directory integration that IT will sign off.

Data & analytics

Warehouses and pipelines that turn scattered records into answers.

Business platforms

ERP, CRM and line-of-business systems, joined up sensibly.

How we decide

A new tool has to earn its place.

Before anything enters a client's stack, it passes the same three questions.

Does it fit? Is this the right shape for the problem, or just the tool we happen to like?
Can we run it? Do we understand its failure modes well enough to be woken up for it?
Can you keep it? Will your team be able to hire for it, maintain it and move on from it?
Talk architecture

Not sure what the right foundation is?

That's a good place to start a conversation. Tell us the problem and we'll help you find the stack that fits it — even if that turns out to be less than you expected.
