Web and mobile applications
Design and development for useful products across web and mobile.
DESIGN + DEVELOPMENT
Good ideas.Built to work.
We design and build useful websites, apps and tools.
01 / Capabilities
What we build
Web and mobile products, custom CMSs, integrations, reporting tools, automation and research prototypes. We can shape a new idea, improve an existing product or join the team already doing the work.
Content, CMS, and publishing
Content systems and publishing workflows that make updates easier to manage.
Subscription and account workflows
Account, billing period, cancellation, and subscription experiences.
Data integrations and reporting
Connected data, synced transactions, and reporting workflows that bring information together.
Internal admin and workflow tools
Focused tools that help teams manage internal work and recurring processes.
AI-assisted tools and automation
Practical tools and automations that use AI to support real work.
Research and prototypes
Research and early prototypes to test ideas before investing in a larger build.
Community websites and technical QA/reporting
Community-focused websites plus technical checks and clear reporting.
What do you need to move forward?
Choose the kind of help you need, or send us the short version and we will figure out the right starting point together.
Launch a product
Turn a product idea into a useful first release.
Launch a productImprove an existing product
Make an existing product easier to use, maintain and grow.
Improve an existing productJoin an existing team
Add experienced engineering support where your team needs it.
Join an existing teamVet and harden a vibe-coded app
Understand the risks in an app before real users depend on it. Production hardening can be scoped separately as follow-on work after the assessment.

Selected work
A mix of products, client work, experiments and team contributions. Each project reflects a practical focus on useful software and clear technical decisions.
Balance case study
Balance Budget
Building a clearer way to budget together
Balance is a budgeting product built around how households actually plan money together: start with a shared view, make the next decision clear, and keep improving the workflow as the product grows.

Case study
ArtStory
We shaped, designed, and built ArtStory with artist Roz Dimon to help preserve her creative legacy, bringing hundreds of artworks and decades of stories into one coherent public collection.

DIMONscapes
Artist Roz Dimon created DIMONscapes to let viewers dive deeper into her digital paintings, exploring layers and stories at their own pace. We collaborated with Roz on software prototypes, then built a custom CMS so she could create new DIMONscapes.

Wellness Data Solutions (WDS)
As part of an existing development team, we helped build and support a health and wellness platform with dashboard features for filtering collections and departments, reviewing BMI and metabolic-syndrome summaries, and exploring distributions and historical views. We also supported client onboarding over time.

Staff Augmentation and Delivery Support
DrawChicken helps teams extend an existing development workflow with added capacity for reporting interfaces, per-user workflow drill-downs, consistent notifications, and controlled field edits. In a historical staff-augmentation role, a contributor worked within the team’s shared pull request and review process.

How we work
Start with the problem, understand the people and systems around it, then build the smallest useful version. From there, we test the workflow, learn what needs to change and keep improving the parts that matter.
Discovery
We start by understanding what you are trying to accomplish, what already exists, and where the work is getting stuck.
Scope
We agree on the work, access needed, expected deliverables, and a practical path forward.
Build
The work is developed in small, reviewable steps.
Verify
We test the result, review the handoff, and document anything needed to keep it running.
04 / Questions
A few answers
What kinds of software do you build?
We build web and mobile applications, custom CMSs, reporting interfaces, integrations, automation and focused internal tools. We also help turn early ideas into working prototypes when the product still needs to be figured out.
Can you work with an existing development team?
Yes. We can join an existing team, contribute frontend or full-stack engineering, work through the current review process and help move specific product or workflow improvements forward.
Can we start with something small?
Yes. A focused workflow, prototype, integration or improvement to an existing product is often the best place to start. The first step is defining what useful progress looks like and what needs to be true for the work to matter.
How do we get started?
Send a note with what you are trying to build, improve or understand. Include whatever context is useful, and we can figure out whether there is a good next step.
Say hello
Have something in mind?
Send a note and tell us what you are trying to build, improve or understand. We can start from the idea, the existing product or the problem that needs solving.
