The House

How we work.

We don't sell subscriptions. We don't lock you in. We build the software, ship it, and hand over everything — code, server, data, accounts, all of it.

You work with us directly. No project managers, no account executives, no sales engineers. The person you email is the person writing the code.

We use the best tools available, including modern AI dev tooling, and ship in weeks where agencies quote months. We don't cut corners on the architecture or the polish.

  1. Listen

    A 30-minute call. We ask the right questions and sketch the shape of the work.

  2. Scope

    A short written proposal: what we'll build, in what order, for what fee.

  3. Cut

    Weekly check-ins with working software in your inbox. No long silences, no big reveals.

  4. Fit

    We tune to what you actually use — not what the spec guessed at. Changes are welcome, not billed per hour.

  5. Deliver

    You get the code, the server, the keys. Want us to stay on? Good. Want to take it in-house? Also good.

Kind words.

Three of the kinder things we've heard. The rest lives on Fiverr, where the rating has stayed at 100% five-star for ten years.

  1. “We hired Chris for a small fix. He flagged three other issues we had not noticed and handled all four for the same fee. Rare.”

    Founder Early-stage SaaS · Florida
  2. “Delivered in two weeks what another shop quoted us four months for. Same feature list. Better code.”

    Operations Director Regional healthcare network
  3. “He writes clean code and explains the tradeoffs in plain language. Our in-house team picked it up the first day.”

    CTO Family-owned manufacturing company
