01 · Services

What we build

Most engagements land in one of these four buckets. Most real projects touch two or three.

Custom internal tools

Daily cash sheets, ops dashboards, time-tracking, approvals. The replacements for the Excel file no one trusts and the shared inbox no one reads.

  • Role-based access
  • Audit trail by default
  • Built to your workflow, not a template

Data ingestion + reporting

Vendor exports, POS feeds, scheduled emails — parsed, deduped, dropped into a database, surfaced in dashboards your team actually opens.

  • SFTP, API, email, scraped portals
  • Reconciliation reports
  • Dashboards that match how you run the business

AI-augmented workflows

Photo OCR, document parsing, classification, summarization. Wire vision and language models into the boring forms and faxes still running your back office.

  • Receipt + invoice extraction
  • Document routing + classification
  • Human-in-the-loop where it matters

Integration glue

SharePoint, QuickBooks, Slack, email, your custom database. One source of truth, end-to-end — no more re-keying between systems.

  • Two-way sync where supported
  • Idempotent + retryable
  • Failures alert you, not your customer

02 · Process

How we work

Four steps from "this is broken" to a tool your team actually uses. No retainers. No surprise invoices.

01

Scope call

Free 30-minute call. You walk us through what is broken. We ask the questions that determine whether software can actually fix it.

02

Fixed bid

Within a week you get a written proposal — scope, timeline, fixed price, and an explicit list of what is out of scope.

03

Build + check-ins

Weekly demos against the scoped milestones. Course corrections happen early, in the demo, not in a 40-email thread at the end.

04

Handoff

Source code, documentation, and a runbook. Optional ongoing support, but you own everything and can hand it to anyone.

03 · Engagements

Sample engagements

Anonymized snapshots of the kind of work we take on. Specifics available under NDA.

Operations

Nightly data reconciliation

Pulled disparate vendor exports and internal logs each night, reconciled against the source-of-truth ledger, and surfaced variances in a single morning report. Replaced a multi-hour manual spreadsheet routine.

Operations

Vendor invoice intake

Inbox-to-database pipeline. PDFs and scanned invoices parsed with OCR + LLM extraction, line items normalized against the product catalog, exceptions routed to a human queue.

Finance + reporting

Executive workbook automation

Multi-source financial workbook rebuilt from raw GL exports each month. What used to take three days of formula-chasing is now a single command and a 90-second run.

04 · FAQ

Common questions

How do you price? +

Fixed bid per project. You see the number before we start. No hourly retainers, no scope creep without a written change order.

What do you build with? +

Python and TypeScript on the backend, Postgres for data, AWS or Cloudflare for hosting. We integrate with whatever your business already runs — QuickBooks, SharePoint, Slack, Google Workspace, and most line-of-business systems. Tools are picked to fit the job, not to defend.

How small is too small? +

If a project would take less than a day, we will usually tell you how to do it yourself. Our sweet spot is the one-to-six-week build that an in-house team has been quoting at twelve weeks.

Do you own the code, or do we? +

You do. Source on your GitHub, deploys on your cloud accounts where possible. We are not in the business of locking you into a black box.

Will you maintain it after launch? +

Optional. Most clients self-serve after handoff. A flat monthly support plan is available if you would rather we stay on call.

Where are you based? +

Fort Worth, Texas. Work is remote-first, but we travel for on-site discovery when the problem is on a shop floor or in a warehouse.
