Let's Face It

Most software agencies suck.

They don’t understand your business.

They quote you thousands after talking with you for only 10 minutes.

They confuse you with technical jargon.

They aren’t US-based, making communication a nightmare.

They don’t respond promptly or keep you updated on your project.

The project's cost & timeline balloons way beyond your initial quote.

The Winning Formula

You may be wondering, "What is the secret sauce to no-bullshit software development?" Lean-in close, dear friend:

(There is no secret sauce)

That's right. There's no secret sauce. Just a heavy-dose of principles, backed by our personal vision for how software should be built:

Image

No bullshit

The software industry is rife with snake-oil and sleight of hand. We focus on simplicity, relentless removal of redundancy, and customer-serving software.

Image

Clear, frequent communication

We believe clear, frequent communication solves a wide-range of issues and makes work faster, and more predictable. We promise to respond to any requests within 1-business day.

Image

Daily, unmitigated excellence in all things

Most software suffers from bloat, aimlessness, and lack of excellence. Excellence is hard to define, but we've created a credo for how we operate with our customers.

Image

Moneyback Guarantee

If within the first two weeks of engagement you decide that we are not meeting expectations, we will refund 100% of your project fee at no cost to you.

Image

0-bugs. Guaranteed.

While we can't promise you'll never find a single bug, we can promise it won't cost you. We offer a lifetime, 0-bug guarantee on our software. It's as good as it sounds.

Imagine No Longer Dealing With...

Image

Hours of Manual Data Entry

We save our customers' employees hundreds of hours of data entry, so they can use that time to grow the business.

Image

Disconnected Business Systems

We create bespoke business software that unifies and connects tools together so that data flows efficiently so employees don't have to move data from software to software.

Image

No Reporting Or Insights

We create meaningful dashboards and reporting for our customers, so they have the data that matters to their businesses at the tip of their fingers.

Image

Relying on a Fragile System 20 Years In the past

We de-risk our customers' business software, turning our a bottleneck into a revenue-generating asset.

Our value

You're one of four.

We often uncover simple solutions on our 30-minute consultations that eliminate the need for a full project. Many times this provides enough clarity that business owners can get their business unstuck without our services!

During this call, if we discover that we’re not your guys, we’ll provide you with suggested next steps to ensure that no matter what, you walk away with clarity.

No matter what software issues you're facing, we can help get your business moving forward again with a solution that turns your software into a powerful asset.

* We will take on smaller projects and consultations in addition to full-sized projects, but limit these to ensure quality.

We limit ourselves to 4 full projects each year to give each project the care and focus it deserves.*

It's Not You

Finding Trusted Developers Who Understand Your Business Shouldn't Be This Hard

Your business is growing but your business's software keeps breaking.

You have to create manual workarounds where your staff spends hours manually inputting data into different software.

Trying to get meaningful insights to your business is near impossible.

You've been putting off rebuilding your business's software for years.

You open up Google, search "software development for small businesses," and comb through the never-ending results for software development companies who say they build custom software for businesses.

You talk to a few companies, and they send you a colossal quote after speaking to you for 10 minutes when you feel they don't understand your business.

You get overwhelmed and confused by the tech jargon- so you kick the can further down the road.

Sound familiar?

You're not alone.

We believe that solving your business's software shouldn't be confusing or stressful.

We seek to work with you to define the underlying business problem we need to solve.

Whether or not you work with us, we provide you with clarity and a path forward to solve your business's software problems.
