- Legacy modernization
- Performance & security
- Maintenance plans
Not sure where to start?
Tell us about the problem rather than the solution. We'll suggest the right approach — even if it turns out to be a smaller one.
Process
A process built for clarity, not ceremony.
Four stages, each ending in something concrete you can review. No black boxes, no surprises at the end.
- 01
Discover
We start with your goals, users and constraints, and turn them into a clear scope with a timeline and a written quote.
Outcome: Scope, plan & quote
- 02
Design
Architecture, user experience and a delivery plan you can review. Decisions are written down and risks surface early.
Outcome: Architecture & prototypes
- 03
Build
Short iterations with working software at the end of each one. You see real progress, not status reports.
Outcome: Working software, every iteration
- 04
Launch & evolve
Automated tests, safe releases, monitoring and a proper handover. We stay on for support for as long as you need us.
Outcome: Production, monitored
Standards
The standard we build to
Every project gets the same discipline, whatever its size. These aren't add-ons on a price list — they are how we work.
Performance budgets
Pages and APIs are measured against budgets on every change, not optimized at the end.
Accessibility
Interfaces built to WCAG 2.2 AA, so they work for everyone and are ready for the European Accessibility Act.
Security by design
Least privilege, dependency auditing and secure defaults, with the OWASP Top 10 in mind from the first commit.
Privacy by design
Data minimization and GDPR-compliant processing, designed in rather than bolted on.
Automated testing
Unit, integration and end-to-end tests run in CI on every change, before anything reaches production.
Documentation
Architecture notes and decision records that let any competent team pick the work up after us.

FAQ
Questions, answered.
Anything else on your mind? Ask us directly.
What kind of projects do you take on?
Web platforms, SaaS products, internal tools, integrations, AI features and the modernization of existing systems — for startups building their first product and for established businesses alike. If it's software and it matters to your business, we'd like to hear about it.
Do you work with clients outside Croatia?
Yes. We work in English with clients across the European Union and beyond, remotely and with plenty of overlap with your working hours (we're on Central European Time). Invoices are issued in euros; for VAT-registered businesses elsewhere in the EU, the reverse-charge mechanism applies.
Who owns the code and the intellectual property?
You do. Once an invoice is paid, the source code, designs and documentation it covers are yours — no licenses to renew, no proprietary frameworks, no lock-in. We build on open standards so any competent team can take over.
How do you price your work?
A fixed price for well-defined scope, a monthly time-and-materials arrangement for evolving products, and fixed packages for audits and consulting. You always get a written estimate before any work begins.
Will you sign an NDA?
Of course. We're happy to sign your NDA — or provide ours — before you share any details about your project.
What happens after launch?
Whatever suits you best: an ongoing maintenance and support plan (monitoring, security updates, upgrades and new features), or a complete handover to your own team, with documentation and a walkthrough of the codebase.
How do we get started?
Email us a few lines about what you're building and where you are now. We'll reply personally to set up a short, no-obligation call, and follow up with a proposal: scope, approach, timeline and cost.
