Fixed-scope project
A clear product or feature with a defined finish line.
- Fixed price per phase
- Discovery first
- Typical length 2 to 6 months
A London software company. We design, build and run web platforms, apps and AI features, with a working demo every week and code you own from day one.
Most software projects go quiet somewhere between the kickoff and the launch. Weeks pass, the budget moves, and nobody can show you what works yet. We run projects the other way round: a fixed-price discovery, a demo every week and code in your repository from the first day. You always know what you have paid for, because you can open it and use it.
Each one can stand alone. Most projects use three or four, run by the same people throughout.
Monday
Priorities
A short call to agree what matters this week. You decide the order; we tell you honestly what fits.
This week
Tuesday
Build
Engineers work in your repository. Every change is reviewed by a second person before it is merged.
Wednesday
Check-in
A written note on progress and anything that needs your decision, so nothing waits until Friday.
Wednesday note
Thursday
Test
Automated tests run on every change, and we try the week’s work on real phones and browsers.
Tests
Friday
Demo
You click through working software, not slides. Notes and next week’s plan arrive the same afternoon.
Notes and next week
Discovery is a fixed price and ends with a written plan you keep. Everything after it is planned with you, in weeks you can see.
Discovery
2 weeks, fixed price
Workshops, a technical review and a written plan with scope, risks and a cost range. You keep the plan whether or not we build it.
Design
2 to 4 weeks
Flows and screens tested with real users. Architecture agreed before the first sprint.
Build
Two-week sprints
A demo every week. Code in your repository from day one. Priorities set by you at every sprint.
Launch
Staged release
Release to a small group first, then everyone. Monitoring and rollback ready before the switch.
Run
Monthly
Support, fixes and improvements on a monthly plan, or a clean handover to your own team.
A clear product or feature with a defined finish line.
Ongoing product work where priorities change month to month.
You want to know if an AI idea works before you fund it.
Written into every proposal. Ask for the evidence at any Friday demo.
Every release goes through dependency checks and the OWASP Top 10 basics. Secrets live in a vault, access follows least privilege, and backups are restored in practice, not just taken.
Pages load quickly on a mid-range phone on an ordinary connection. We set a weight budget for each page before design starts and check Core Web Vitals on real devices.
Built to WCAG 2.2 AA from the first component, and tested with a keyboard and a screen reader, not only with an automated scan.
UK GDPR is part of the first workshop. We collect only what the product needs, write down where it lives and agree how long it is kept.
Any project we build can be picked up by another team. Tests, runbooks and architecture notes are part of the work, not an extra at the end.
Three typical projects, described the way we would scope them. They are examples of the work, not named clients.
A UK homeware retailerIllustrative example
Customers photograph a lamp they like and see similar items in stock, ranked by price and delivery time.
A regional courierIllustrative example
Drivers photograph signed delivery notes. Fields are extracted, checked and posted to the billing system the same day.
A UK creator platformIllustrative example
Users top up credits, spend them per action and get paid for their sales. Every movement is recorded, so balances, refunds and payouts always reconcile.
Visual search, product tagging, catalogue tools and checkouts that convert.
Ledgers, credits, payouts and the checks that keep regulators comfortable.
Image generation, asset libraries, rights management and creator marketplaces.
Reading paperwork, tracking parcels and tools for the people on the road.
Listings, viewings, document handling and portals for tenants and landlords.
Client portals, document search and internal tools for firms that bill by the hour.
From the first commit, in your repository, under your account.
Every week you see working software, not a status slide.
A UK company, a UK contract and a named person responsible for your project.
The people in the first meeting are the people who build your product.
Two weeks, one price, a plan you keep either way.
If a simple rule beats a model, we will say so and build the rule.
It depends on scope, so we start with a two-week discovery at a fixed price. You get a written plan with a cost range before committing to the build.
Discovery can usually start within two weeks of the first call.
Yes. We work in English, mostly in UK hours, with clients across the UK and Europe.
Yes. We begin with a short code and infrastructure audit and tell you plainly what we find.
Yes, before the first detailed conversation if you prefer.
You choose: a monthly support plan with us, or a documented handover to your own team.
A short call, a clear next step. We reply within one working day.
