UK-BASED WEB AND MOBILE APP DEVELOPMENT
WE BUILD. WE MODERNISE. WE SECURE.
A web development agency for business-critical applications. PHP and TypeScript development. Go (Golang) and Rust for backend services and components that need performance or reliability. No vague promises — a plain description of what we do.
FOUR PROBLEMS. SOUND FAMILIAR?
Your PHP app is old.
That's not the problem. Nobody understands it anymore. That's the problem. We fix that.
Your systems don't talk.
CRM. Payments. Accounting. Three separate truths. Someone copies data between them by hand.
Nobody's audited this.
You don't know what's actually at risk. You need a list, ranked, not a lecture.
You want AI. For what?
Support queue. Internal search. Document processing. Pick one. We'll scope it.
WHAT WE DO
Custom application development
PHP and TypeScript, front end and back end. Go (Golang) for APIs and background processing. Rust for performance-critical components. API design. Integrations with payment, CRM and accounting systems.
VALUE: applications built for your business. Systems that work together.
Legacy application modernisation
PHP upgrades. Framework and dependency updates. Refactoring. Migrations. Component extraction to Go or Rust where it's justified. JavaScript to TypeScript. Better testing and deployment.
VALUE: your existing system lasts longer and gets easier to change.
Application security and audits
PHP security reviews and fixes. PHP security audits. Database security audits. OWASP-based reviews. Technical privacy reviews supporting GDPR — collection, storage, access, retention, deletion.
VALUE: you know the risk, in priority order. Data handled properly.
AI integration and automation
Chatbots. Customer service tools. Internal knowledge search. Document and workflow automation. Built into what you already run.
VALUE: less manual work. Faster answers for customers and staff.
Performance, maintenance and support
Performance investigation and fixes. Database optimisation. Security patches. Dependency maintenance. Monitoring. Support. Continued development.
VALUE: it keeps working. It stays fast. It's ready for what's next.
SEO & ASO
Search engine optimisation. App store optimisation. Technical SEO. On-page optimisation. Content strategy. Link building. Analytics and reporting.
VALUE: more visibility. More traffic. More customers.
DON'T KNOW WHERE TO START?
That's what technical discovery is for. We review the codebase. We assess the risk. We clarify what you actually need. You get a prioritised plan. That's it — no obligation to go further with us.

Discovery
We look at the system and the real problem before we propose anything.
Delivery

Monitoring, patching, continued development. It stays fixed.
