Tools and technology we use

We get curious about the part of a business that is not working as it should. That has led us to web and mobile products, AI and data systems, cloud infrastructure, and connected devices. We choose tools that fit the job rather than forcing a standard stack.

Where we work

Our work includes web and mobile products, internal business systems, desktop software, and device-connected software. We can work with an established codebase or assess whether building something new is the right next step.

Tools we know

• Web, backend, and product development Ruby and Ruby on Rails, Python, Django, Django REST Framework, FastAPI, JavaScript, Node.js, PHP, Go, Elixir, Phoenix, React, Vue, Backbone.js, HTML, CSS, Bootstrap, and jQuery.

• Mobile, desktop, and connected devices Android, Kotlin, Jetpack Compose, Ionic, Capacitor, Apache Cordova, Xamarin, Universal Windows Platform, .NET Framework, C#, firmware, and Bluetooth Low Energy.

• AI, data, and real-time systems OpenAI, LangChain, GenAI, LLMs, natural-language processing, pgvector, Qdrant, Neo4j, PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, Redis, Elasticsearch, WebSockets, WebRTC, LiveKit, Twilio, and OneSignal.

• Cloud, deployment, and operations AWS, EC2, ECS, Fargate, IAM, Google Cloud Platform, Cloudflare Pages, Netlify, Heroku, Git, GitHub Actions, GitLab, Bitbucket, DevOps, deployment, pm2, and SSL.

• Business systems, APIs, and payments REST APIs, API-driven architecture, PACE, Entrata, Guesty, Yardi, StayNTouch, Transunion, Stripe, Apple Pay, Recurly, Salesforce APEX, and materialized views.

• Testing and quality Playwright, Cypress, Mocha, Chai, and Sinon.

Examples from client work

For a commercial-printing estimator, we have led the architecture and development of AI-assisted estimating workflows that connect to the client’s existing ERP system. For an elder-assistance platform, our work spans backend services, a web front end, native Android, AWS infrastructure, real-time communication, and the tools that make releases dependable.

We have also delivered marketplace payments and mobile workflows, and worked on always-on hardware and software systems for mission-critical dispatch environments. They are different products, but we approach each one the same way: define a piece of work we can complete, deliver it, review it with the client, and decide together what comes next.

For a national animal-welfare nonprofit, we helped re-architect a legacy marketplace into a platform for organizations, providers, and end users. The work included data ingestion, internal tooling, and external data distribution.

For an engineering-calculation product, we helped turn spreadsheet-based workflows into a maintainable web and mobile application, then carried it through framework migrations and architectural changes.

What to expect

We plan in sprints, so each new piece of work can be completed and reviewed before the next begins. You are part of deciding what comes next. If your existing technology is serving you well, we will work with it. If a change is worth making, we will be clear about why, what it involves, and how it affects the people who rely on the system.
