Web Applications & SaaS Platforms
Custom portals, dashboards and multi-tenant SaaS with authentication, billing and admin built in.
Large organisations often need software that doesn't exist yet: a customer portal, a partner platform, an internal tool that replaces spreadsheets or a product to sell. We build web applications with the foundations already solved, such as authentication, roles, billing, audit logs and admin, so effort goes into what makes the product yours.
Delivery is phased with rejection gates. Each phase ends in working software on a staging environment you can use, and the code lives in your repository throughout.
- Phases end in usable software, so you can stop, pause or change direction with something in hand.
- Security review by our cybersecurity practice is part of the build, not a later audit.
- Documentation and CI/CD mean an in-house team can take over without a cliff edge.
- A bank, insurer or utility replacing a customer portal that was built a decade ago and is now a security concern.
- A logistics or automotive group that needs a partner or dealer platform its existing vendors do not offer.
- A corporate venture launching a software product to external customers under the group's name.
- Critical operations run on spreadsheets and email that only a few people understand.
- A vendor product covers most of the need and the gaps are becoming the business.
- The current application is unmaintainable and the team that built it has gone.
- Security or compliance review has flagged the portal and there is no plan.

Release and hand-over
Security test, performance test, launch and documentation for the team that takes over.
- Time from specification sign-off to first usable release on staging.
- Task completion and error rates for the users the product serves.
- Findings from the pre-release security test, tracked to closure.
- Share of the platform documented and covered by automated tests at hand-over.
- Technical lead
- Senior full-stack engineers

- Documented API and back end.
- Front-end application.
- Automated test suite and CI/CD.
- Documented hand-over and training.
Applications are delivered as fixed-scope phases following a specification sprint of two to three weeks. A first release typically takes three to six months. After launch, a retained team continues for features and support, or the platform is handed to in-house engineers with our support during transition.
DevOps & Platform Engineering
CI/CD, infrastructure as code and observability so teams ship safely and often.
CybersecurityPenetration Testing (Web, API, Mobile)
Manual, adversary-style testing of applications and their business logic, with a retest included.
Web, Webshop & App DevelopmentMVP & Rapid Prototyping
Validate an idea in weeks with a clickable prototype or a thin slice of production software.
Web Applications & SaaS Platforms, in plain terms.
TypeScript across the stack with Next.js or Nuxt on the front end and Node.js or Python services behind, on Postgres. We choose differently where a requirement demands it.
Yes, after a technical review. We will say whether it is worth extending or better replaced in stages.
Threat modelling during specification, secure defaults in the platform features and a penetration test before major releases.
You choose: a retained team from us, a hand-over to your engineers or a mix. Either way, the code and infrastructure are yours.
