The floor it all stands onCloud and infrastructure

Edge, databases, single sign-on, CI, observability and cost control.

The platform underneath the product: edge compute, database design, authentication, deployment pipelines, monitoring, and the cost control that stops a cloud bill quietly tripling.

How we approach it

We run a Cloudflare-native platform — Workers, D1, R2, queues, single sign-on and a metered AI gateway — across thirteen production deployments serving every product we operate from one account system. That is the reference architecture, and it is why hosting for most of what we build costs tens of dollars a month rather than thousands.

Migrations are part of this. We moved this site and its data off Firebase onto Cloudflare with no downtime, and the runbook for it is public.

What you get

  • Architecture review or design
  • Migration plan and execution, with a rollback at each step
  • Single sign-on and identity
  • CI, deployment and rollback
  • Observability: logs, metrics, alerting, uptime and certificate monitoring
  • Cost analysis, before and after

Typical timeline: Two to twelve weeks.

Where this comes up

Build a web app or SaaS platform

You have a product idea, or a spreadsheet-and-email process that customers now depend on, and it needs to become a real multi-tenant application with accounts, billing and an admin side.

How we work

We talk it through
A conversation about the problem, not a sales pitch. If we are not the right people for the job we will say so and point you somewhere better. Free, and there is no obligation after it.
You get a written quote
A fixed price for a fixed scope, in plain English, with a delivery date. No hourly billing that quietly doubles. If the scope changes later, you approve the change and its cost before any work starts.
We build it in stages
You see working software every week or two, not a status report. That means you can course-correct early, while it is still cheap to change your mind.
You take ownership
At handover you receive the source code, the accounts, the domains and the documentation, all in your business name. Nothing stays locked to us. You could hire anyone else tomorrow and they could pick it up.
We look after it
An ongoing support agreement, or on-call as you need it. Your choice, and you can change or end it whenever you like.
