How we work

spacer

We use a modern, lightweight process that gets results quickly and gives you the flexibility to evolve your design. We deliver working, tested software each week so you can watch our progress.

spacer

We maintain and update a simple, transparent and readable plan that means there are no surprises, and we'll adapt our schedule to your business needs.

spacer

We work closely to design the application as we're building it, so we like to co-locate our team at your premises for part of each week, or you're welcome to drop into our offices.

Our role

Build your app from scratch

We'll help you to minimise risks and make the most of your budget by suggesting ways to meet your business goals quickly. We can work with your existing designer, or recommend a design agency.

Grow your existing app (and team!)

We can get up to speed quickly on your current code. If you have an existing team, we can work with them to enhance their skills while we grow your app. Once you've launched, we can hand over to your new team or schedule regular time to keep you up to date.

Our team

Our diverse technical backgrounds mean we're well prepared for any challenge and we're passionate about emerging web technologies like HTML5 and Websockets. When we're not building apps, we write, present, and teach about new ways of building for the web.
