Solutions Offered
Broadly, we can help you in the following solution areas:
Insight & Intelligence: We help you understand what is possible in terms of automation and integration and how to go about it in a commercially effective strategic manner. On top of this, we can help you collect, analyse and present data from almost any system throughout your business to boost decision making capabilities.
Software Implementation: We help you implement and onboard to certain software (our ‘core stack’ and various infrastructure utilities) within your business, with or without integration and automation support.
Stack Integration & Workflow Automation: We integrate your business software applications and automate defined workflow processes which take place across your systems. These can be simple ‘point-to-point’ (if this then that) workflows; or complex multistage, multi-directional workflows with integrated business logic (e.g. lookups for business variables such as products, people, financial rules).
Native & Direct Integration Development: Zapier and Make private or public app development. Ecommerce app<>platform integration development: Shopify & EKM platforms support. Bespoke cloud-based native two-way integration development, Xano or Airtable based.
Platform & Tool Development: We build bespoke lowcode-based tools that solve for the business logic that off-the-shelf SaaS does not satisfy. Examples include: Platform: Bespoke Shopify wholesale website with custom frontend and Airtable-based backend for totally custom order fulfilment routing into warehouses with legacy EDI connections. Platform: Webflow, Wized and Xano/Airtable stack for fully authenticated, interactive web apps with payment and logic support.

Standards for Technical Specification
Based on the above, you can imagine that we take care to carefully understand what is to be built. We have developed a detailed explanation of our standards of technical specification. We don’t mind who does the scoping (you or us). As long as it meets our standards, we can develop tech based on it.
Essential Information about us
We are not cheap, but we are very effective.
We are small, but rapidly growing.
We are hybrid. UK-headquartered () with a distributed remote-team. Most, but not all, production takes place in the UK. We focus on ecommerce and the ecommerce ecosystem, but can work with companies outside of this for certain projects and usecases.
As of Spring 2023, we have an average kickoff lead time on a client’s first-project of 4-6 weeks. But once we start development, things happen VERY quickly.
In general, all of our services and products are payable upfront.
