Prototype development
Turn an idea into a working version people can try. Test the important assumptions and use the feedback to decide what comes next.
Ship · AI-Assisted Product Development
Real software, shipped fast and built right.
We use AI-assisted engineering to build prototypes, products and internal tools. Experienced engineers guide the design, review the code and test the result. You get working software and the means to maintain it.
When to bring us in
Decisions and challenges we help with.
- You want to test a product idea with customers before a larger investment.
- A manual process needs a useful internal tool.
- Your business systems need an integration the vendors do not provide.
- You need a proof of concept to answer a specific technical or business question.
- You want to add AI features to an existing product.
- Your team wants to adopt AI-assisted development on a real project.
Scope
What we do.
Product builds
Build web applications, APIs, integrations and the supporting infrastructure, with testing and a repeatable deployment process.
Internal tools and automation
Develop dashboards, reporting, approvals and back-office tools that reduce manual work and fit how your team operates.
AI features
Add search, generation, classification or agent workflows, with appropriate review, evaluation and cost controls.
Launch and handover
Prepare deployment, monitoring, documentation and a walkthrough so your team can run and maintain the software.
Proofs of concept
A focused build to test whether an approach works, with findings and a recommendation on whether to continue.
Process
How we work together.
- 01
Agree the scope
Define the problem, users, deliverables and acceptance criteria. Set the budget and schedule before the build starts.
- 02
Put software in your hands
Share a usable version as early as the scope allows, so decisions can be based on how it works.
- 03
Refine and test
Use short development cycles, a live preview and regular reviews with your team to improve the product.
- 04
Launch and hand over
Deliver the repository, documentation, access and a walkthrough. Agree any ongoing support separately.
Experience
What we bring to the work.
Speed with review
AI speeds up implementation. Design decisions, code review and acceptance testing remain part of the work.
Business context
We consider the customer, the operating process and the commercial case alongside the technical requirements.
A maintainable result
We use established tools and clear documentation so your team, or another developer, can continue the work.
FAQ
Common questions.
- How quickly can we see a prototype?
- We aim for a working version early enough to influence the decision. The schedule depends on what needs to be tested and is set out in the proposal.
- What is the difference between a prototype and a product build?
- A prototype tests the idea or a difficult part of it. A product build adds the reliability, security, support and operating processes needed for ongoing use. We agree which you need before work starts.
- What technologies do you use?
- We choose established technologies suited to the project, including TypeScript, React, Node, Python and Postgres. Your team's ability to maintain the result is part of that choice.
- Who owns the code?
- You own the code we write for you, with the repository, documentation and access included in the handover. The proposal identifies any third-party tools or pre-existing components and their terms.
- Can you work with our product or engineering team?
- Yes. We can build alongside your team, take on a defined part of the roadmap, or help introduce AI-assisted development through a real project.
- Do you offer fixed-price work?
- Yes, where the scope is clear. Proofs of concept and first versions are usually fixed fee. Longer builds can be split into separately priced phases.
