How it works

From blocked to shipped in one week.

No 40-page proposals. No discovery theatre. We build the smallest real version of your idea, fast.

Day 1 — Scope

We find the one feature that matters.

A 20-minute call. We define exactly what "working" means, pick the single highest-leverage flow, and lock the scope. No committee, no change requests.

  • One flow, end-to-end
  • Success criteria agreed upfront
  • Fixed price: $5,000
scope.md
# Sprint scope feature: "checkout rebuild" deadline: "5 business days" out_of_scope: "everything else" price: 5000
Days 2–4 — Build

We build it for real.

Senior engineers only, working directly in production-grade code — not a clickable mockup. Daily progress, no status-meeting overhead.

  • Real backend, real data
  • The stack we'd ship the full build on
  • No junior hand-offs

Day 5 — Handoff

You see it running.

Live walkthrough, a recorded demo, and a clear scope + estimate for the full build. You keep the prototype and the architecture either way.

  • Working prototype you can click
  • Recorded walkthrough
  • Roadmap + estimate for what's next

If we don't put a working prototype of your core feature in front of you within 5 business days, the sprint is free. Everything else scales from there.

What we build

Pick the problem you're stuck on.

140+ clients worldwide — here's what we're usually brought in to fix.

E-commerce

Rebuilding checkout for a DTC brand

A funded consumer brand was losing carts to a slow, generic checkout. We rebuilt the flow and the post-purchase upsell engine on a custom stack — in one sprint.

  • Custom checkout & payment flows
  • Subscriptions & retention logic
  • Post-purchase upsells
  • Fulfilment & ops dashboards

SaaS

Onboarding automation for a B2B platform

New customers stalled before activation. We automated setup, data import and the first-value moment inside the product.

  • Onboarding & activation flows
  • Billing, plans & usage metering
  • Admin & customer dashboards
  • API & third-party integrations

Operations

An ops dashboard that killed the spreadsheets

A logistics team ran scheduling across 9 spreadsheets and a fragile automation. We shipped a single internal tool with real-time dispatch.

  • Internal tools that replace spreadsheets
  • Real-time scheduling & dispatch
  • Reporting & audit trails
  • Role-based access for your team

Automation

An outbound engine that runs itself

A funded team was doing outbound by hand. We built the sourcing, enrichment, sequencing and reporting into one automated system.

  • Outbound & pipeline automation
  • Data sync & enrichment pipelines
  • Back-office & workflow automation
  • AI features built into your product

FAQ

Questions founders ask us.

One core flow, end-to-end, on real architecture — not a clickable mockup. If your feature needs auth, data and a real backend to be meaningful, we build that. We scope it on the call so there are no surprises.

Then you keep it, along with the architecture and the walkthrough. You only pay the $5K sprint fee — nothing more. No retainer, no lock-in.

Senior engineers, directly. No account managers, no junior hand-offs, no outsourcing. You talk to the people building it.

Whatever fits the problem — typically TypeScript, React/Next.js, Node, Postgres and modern cloud infra. For automation and AI features we use proven, boring tech that won't strand you.

Usually within a week. We take on a limited number of sprints per month to keep quality high — book a call and we'll give you the next available slot.
