What we solve

You may not need more technology. You need the right problem solved.

We help software and AI teams find and fix the technical problems that get expensive as a product grows.

The four moments

Usually, the problem looks like one of these.

Four moments when technical choices decide whether you ship on time.

01 / BUILD

We're building.

The product is new. We want to move fast without building on a base we will have to replace.

TYPICAL WORK
How your product is built Building a first version Keeping customers apart Authentication Who can do what Core connections Database design
02 / UNBLOCK

We're stuck.

The team keeps shipping, but something underneath is slowing everything down.

TYPICAL WORK
Technical debt Backend refactoring Slow spots in the design Legacy systems Engineering unblock
03 / GROW

We're growing.

More people are using the product, and it is not behaving the way it used to.

TYPICAL WORK
Performance Database optimization Faster connections Infrastructure Reliability Handling growth
04 / AI → PRODUCTION

Our AI needs to work for real users.

The demo works. Real users bring higher costs, many requests at once, retries, queues and failures.

TYPICAL WORK
AI backend architecture Async workflows Queues & retries Provider abstraction Token & cost tracking Seeing what your AI is doing
01 / BUILD

Build the product. Don't build tomorrow's problem into it.

We help founders turn an idea into a working product that is ready for real customers, without over-building the first version.

PRODUCT → AUTH → ORGANIZATIONS → Who can do what → CORE CONNECTIONS → DATABASE → INFRA

02 / UNBLOCK

Your team knows what needs to happen. Something is just getting in the way.

We come in when an existing system has become harder to change, run or understand.

03 / SCALE

Growth changes the problem.

A product that works for 500 users does not usually fail at 50,000 because the servers are too small. Sometimes the database is the problem. Sometimes too many things happen at once. Sometimes slow work piles up in the background. Sometimes it is how the product itself uses the system.

WHAT SLOWS DOWN

Pages that get slower as more people use them

Pages that were quick start taking much longer when many people use them at once.

WHAT WE DO

We find the slow database requests, speed them up, and save popular results so they load instantly.

STATUS

Found and fixed

04 / AI IN PRODUCTION

Your AI demo is not your AI product.

Getting an AI to give an impressive answer is the easy part. Running it for real customers brings a different set of problems.

01 Long-running jobs
02 Automated retries
03 Provider failovers
04 Upstream rate limits
05 High concurrency
06 Real-time cost control
07 Token tracking per org
08 Streaming SSE dropped connections
09 Multi-modal file processing
10 Distributed Seeing what your AI is doing
HOW AN AI REQUEST TRAVELS IN A LIVE PRODUCT
USER REQUEST → ENTRY POINT → ASYNC QUEUE → WORKER POOL → PRIMARY LLM → STREAM CACHE
IF SOMETHING FAILS: PROVIDER TIMEOUT → EXPONENTIAL RETRY → FALLBACK PROVIDER → GRACEFUL DEGRADE
Honest positioning

We aren't the right team for every problem.

If your own team has the problem under control and the time to fix it, you probably don't need us.

Don't call us if:

  • You only need a few extra developers
  • You want the cheapest hourly team
  • You want a general IT or staffing company
  • There is no real technical problem yet

Call us when:

  • The problem is hard enough that your team needs an experienced software architect
  • You need senior people who can fix it safely, hands on
  • Old shortcuts are putting your business plans at risk
  • You want founder-led execution without an account-manager layer
