Denver, CO Building software since 2005

Your tech team,
before you
have one.

Senior architects and engineers who take early-stage startups from idea to production: mobile, web, infrastructure, and CI/CD, planned right the first time.

  • 20+ years in tech
  • Architecture → launch
  • Denver metro & remote

// sound familiar?

You have the idea. You don't have the tech team.

01

A great idea, no CTO

You know what the product should do. You don't yet know which stack, which cloud, or what it should cost to run.

02

Wrong turns are expensive

An early architecture mistake turns into a rewrite right when you should be growing.

03

Freelancer patchwork

Three contractors, three codebases, nothing fits together, and nobody owns the whole picture.

// what we build

Everything a startup needs to ship, with nobody to hire yet.

One senior partner from architecture to launch. We plan the stack, contract the build, and hand you a platform you own.

// about us

In the tech industry since 2005. We've seen what breaks.

For 21+ years we've designed, built, tested, and shipped software, from early products to large production platforms. That experience is what you're hiring: knowing which tools fit, which shortcuts cost you later, and how to set up a foundation your future team will thank you for.

We're based in Denver and work with founders and business owners across the metro, including Boulder, Aurora, Lakewood, Littleton, Englewood, Westminster, Arvada, and Centennial, plus remotely anywhere in the US.

// questions

Straight answers.

What does it cost to work with you?

Every project is different, so we scope it on the free discovery call. The architecture map is a fixed-scope first step, and you'll know the price before anything starts.

How long until we have a working product?

Most MVPs take weeks, not quarters. The architecture map gives you a phased timeline, so you'll know what ships first and when.

Do I own the code and the accounts?

Yes. Everything we build lives in your repositories and your cloud accounts from day one. No lock-in.

Do you only work with companies in Denver?

We're based in the Denver metro and love meeting in person across the Front Range, but we work remotely with founders anywhere in the US.

Can you help me hire my own team later?

Yes. The architecture map includes a hiring plan, and we can help interview and onboard your first engineers.

I already have a developer. Can you still help?

Absolutely. We often work alongside an existing developer, reviewing architecture, setting up CI/CD and infrastructure, or adding test automation.

Can you move my small business site off a website builder?

Yes. We rebuild your site as something you own, keep your content, and set up redirects so you don't lose your Google rankings.

Will I be able to update my website myself?

Yes. We set up simple editing for the things you change often, like hours, products, and photos, and we're here when you need more.
