An engineering team you can turn on.
Your engineering team,
without the hiring.
You get a senior Build Lead who owns your roadmap, writes every spec, ships every feature, and reviews every line. Behind them, a build system that makes one engineer ship like five. Month to month. Pause any month. No lock-in.
30-minute call. No pitch deck. We'll look at your backlog and tell you honestly if we can help.
Working on products for teams at
You know what you want to build. You just can't get it built.
The stuck builder
Hiring a senior engineer takes three months. Minimum. The good ones don't apply to job posts.
Your in-house team's backlog is already six months deep. The things that would actually move the business sit in the "nice to have" column because the urgent keeps crowding them out.
You've tried agencies. They treat you like a project, not a partner. By the time they ramp up, your priorities have moved, and the invoice is twice the estimate.
You've looked at Cursor, Lovable, v0. They're amazing if you're an engineer. They're a maze if you're not. And even if you are, you don't want to babysit a coding tool between meetings.
The lean operator
You want the output of an engineering team without running one.
Your PMs already know what needs to ship. They don't need help deciding. They need someone who will actually build it. Consistently. Every week. For as long as you need.
You've thought about setting up your own AI dev pipeline. Then you looked at what that actually involves. Tooling, prompts, reviews, standards, evals, security, infrastructure. It's another product you'd have to build and maintain. You have enough of those already.
You want to sign one contract, get dedicated engineers assigned to your project, and ship real software. Every week. With no lock-in.
So we built something different.
A real engineering team, delivered as a subscription. Run by people you can call by name. Backed by a build system that makes them ship at a pace you haven't seen before.
The people, not a black box.
Two engineers who know your project inside and out.
A real senior engineer, not a chatbot. Not a ticket queue. Not a rotating account manager.
Your primary Build Lead owns your roadmap from day one. They write every spec before we build anything. They review every line of code before it ships. They know your stack, your constraints, your weird edge cases, your deployment quirks.
But engineers take vacations. Life intervenes. That's why every engagement comes with a secondary Build Lead who carries the same full context. They're not a backup who needs briefing — they're already in the room. Your velocity doesn't pause because one person does.
Behind both of them, a build system handles everything that doesn't need a human: the scaffolding, the boilerplate, the first draft. The humans stay in every decision that matters.
The context never sleeps. The project never stalls.
How it works
Four steps. Then repeat.
Meet your Build Lead
A 30-minute intro call. We learn your stack, your goals, your backlog. You meet the senior engineer who’ll run your work. No sales team, no pitch deck.
Use the board you already use
Jira, Linear, Asana, Notion, a Google doc, a Slack channel. We meet you where you already plan work. Nothing new to learn, nothing to migrate. Your Build Lead shows up on your board, not on theirs.
We spec, build, review, ship
Your Build Lead writes the spec before we build. You see it, you say yes or push back, we build. We test it, we review it, we ship it to your repo. Most features land in days.
Repeat, every week
Every week, new things ship. Your Build Lead holds your context. Your Build Lead holds your roadmap. Your PMs stay on the wheel. One contract, real software, from week 1.
The unit
What's a workstream?
A workstream is a slot, not a ticket. No counting, no credits, no running out.
At any moment, your Build Lead has a set number of things actively being built for you. When one ships, the next one starts. Small features clear the slot in hours. Bigger features occupy it longer. The slot never sits empty while there's work on your board.
Think of it as a conveyor belt with a fixed number of lanes. The lanes never stop moving.
No meters. No timers. No "you've used 42 of your 50 credits." Just: is the roadmap moving? It is.
You own 3 active workstreams.
Meanwhile the other two lanes kept moving the whole time.
Quality
We don't ship slop.
The whole industry is flooded with AI-generated software that almost works. We are tired of it too. It's the reason most teams won't touch services like ours. We built this to be the opposite of that.
Five commitments with teeth. Not marketing lines. Actual operating rules.
- 01
A human reviews every line before it ships.
Your Build Lead reads the diff, runs the tests, checks the edge cases, and signs off. If they wouldn’t ship it at their last job, they don’t ship it here.
- 02
Every feature ships with tests, written alongside.
Not after. Not "we’ll add tests later." The tests are part of the work. The full test suite runs on every change. Regressions get caught before they reach you.
- 03
If we broke it, we fix it. Free. Forever.
A feature we shipped is broken? We fix it. No invoice, no re-scoping, no "that’s technically a new ticket." It’s our name on the ship. It’s our problem.
- 04
You own 100% of the code.
Your repo, your stack, your license, your IP. We don’t hold anything hostage. If you leave tomorrow, you leave with everything we built, in perfect shape, with the tests and the docs.
- 05
We work in your tools, on your terms.
Your GitHub, your Jira, your CI, your cloud. We adapt to your stack. You never have to learn ours.

FAQ
Questions we get every week.
- Is this just AI writing code?
- No. It’s senior engineers writing specs, reviewing every line, and owning every ship. Our build system handles the parts of coding that don’t need a human — the scaffolding, the boilerplate, the first draft. The engineers stay in every decision that matters. If we handed you a PR that we hadn’t read ourselves, we’d be out of business in a month.
- What happens when something breaks?
- We fix it. Free. Whenever it breaks, for as long as you’re a client. We take bugs personally. Every bug that escapes gets a test so the same thing can’t happen twice.
- Who owns the code?
- You do. 100%. Your repo, your IP, your license. We push to your GitHub. Nothing is held in our systems that you don’t have a copy of. If you cancel, you keep everything we built, with the tests and the docs, and you owe us nothing.
- What tools and stack do you support?
- Pretty much any modern stack. TypeScript, Python, Go, Rust, React, Next.js, Astro, Svelte, Vue, React Native, Flutter, Postgres, Mongo, Supabase, Firebase, Stripe, and everything that plays well with them. If your stack is exotic, ask. We say yes often.
- What about our Jira / Linear / Asana board?
- We work on yours. We don’t make you adopt ours. Your Build Leads join your board, use your statuses, follow your process. You should not have to change how you work to work with us.
- How fast can we start?
- Usually within a week of the first call. We want to meet you, understand your stack, and introduce you to your Build Leads before any work begins. No six-week onboarding phase with invoices.
- What if we need to stop for a month?
- You pause. We keep your context warm for up to 3 months at a quarter of your tier price. When you come back, you pick up where you stopped, with the same unbroken context. Most agencies would drop you and charge you to re-onboard. We don’t.
- Can we leave whenever?
- Yes. Month to month, no kill fees, no annual commit. We earn the next month every month. If we don’t, you shouldn’t pay.
- What about NDAs, IP, and security?
- Standard NDA signed before the first technical call, no charge. Code review, repo access, and production credentials handled through your systems, not ours. We can work under your security policy. We’re based in the EU and handle data accordingly.
- Who’s actually doing the work?
- A dedicated primary Build Lead, paired with a secondary Build Lead, supported by our build system. No offshore back office, no junior rotation, no account manager layer between you and the people building your software.
- What kind of work is a bad fit?
- We’re not the right shop for research-heavy ML, hard real-time systems, embedded firmware, or anything where the core challenge is inventing something brand new. We’re the right shop for real software that needs to exist: product features, integrations, dashboards, internal tools, APIs, new services in an existing stack, rebuilds, migrations, scale fixes. The unglamorous 90% of software engineering that most teams can’t hire fast enough to cover.
- What does it cost to try?
- One month. Starter is €5,000. That’s it. Cancel at the end of the month if we’re not worth it. We’re confident enough in the first 30 days that we don’t need to hide behind 12-month contracts.
