Expertise

What we do

Web applications are the core of the work, with mobile apps, AI and integration alongside. All of it is grounded in hands-on experience of building, running and improving real commercial systems.

  1. Laravel & web applications

    Bespoke web applications, SaaS platforms, customer portals and the backend systems behind them, built with Laravel and modern PHP and structured to be maintained for years, not months.

    • SaaS platforms
    • Customer portals
    • Internal systems
    • Livewire

  2. AI & intelligent automation

    Practical AI where it earns its place: automating workflows, processing documents and information, and connecting language models to the systems and data a business already has.

    • OpenAI
    • Anthropic
    • Document processing
    • Workflow automation

  3. APIs & systems integration

    Secure, well-documented APIs and dependable integrations between applications, databases and third-party platforms, so information flows where it needs to without manual effort.

    • REST APIs
    • Webhooks
    • Payments
    • Data sync

  4. Mobile app development

    Cross-platform apps for iPhone and Android: customer-facing apps, companion apps for existing web platforms, and games. Built with React Native and Flutter, and connected to the systems behind them.

    • iOS & Android
    • React Native
    • Companion apps
    • Games

  5. Technical consultancy & modernisation

    Architecture reviews, upgrades and careful modernisation of legacy systems, plus experienced, ongoing technical support for software the business depends on.

    • Architecture reviews
    • Framework upgrades
    • Migrations
    • Ongoing support

Mobile apps

Beyond the browser. Apps for iOS and Android.

Business apps, companion apps for existing web platforms, and games for iPhone and Android, built from a single codebase and designed to feel at home on both.

Most apps, including several of the games, are built with React Native and Expo, in TypeScript. Some games use Google’s Flutter framework and the Flame engine. And when an app needs a backend, the Laravel API behind it can come from the same place.

Approach

Direct collaboration. No unnecessary complexity.

You work directly with the developer building your software, from the first conversation to launch and beyond. Trusted specialists in design, front-end and photography join when a project needs them. No account managers, no hand-offs, nothing lost in translation.

  • Clear, pragmatic advice

    Straight answers about what’s worth building, what isn’t, and what it will take, including when the simplest option is the right one.

  • Sensible architecture

    Technical decisions made for the long term and matched to the scale of the business, rather than to whatever is fashionable.

  • Built to be maintained

    Clean, tested, well-structured code that stays dependable, and remains straightforward to change as requirements evolve.

  • Long-term support

    Software is never really finished. Ongoing development and support come from someone who already knows your system inside out.

Technology

The right tools. For the right reasons.

Technology choices should follow the problem, not the trend. Most work is built on mature, well-supported stacks we know in depth: Laravel on the web, React Native for apps. When a project genuinely calls for something different, that’s what it gets.

Also experienced with Statamic and a broad range of established web technologies.
