to a first version ready for real customers, vs. 4 months at other AI-focused studios
build and validation-testing cost on comparable builds
Measured against other AI-focused development studios, on real client projects.
Where most builds get stuck
Your vibe-coded MVP hit the wall at real complexity.
Replit, Lovable or Bolt got the idea validated cheaply. Now it’s stalling, breaking in ways nobody can diagnose, or too tangled for anyone to change.
It’s a one-person workflow that won’t survive that person leaving.
Nobody else can run it, extend it, or explain it.
An agency went quiet mid-build.
You need someone who owns the outcome end to end, not a vendor you have to chase.
You’re paying every month for an app you don’t really own.
Stop paying and it stops working, and nobody else can take it over. You want something that’s yours to keep.
Find out what your MVP is really made of
A full code review of your vibe-coded MVP. You get a clear report of its strengths and weaknesses across security, usability and scalability, plus a ready-to-use prompt document you hand to the agent building your app so it can fix what we found.
A findings report: what’s solid, what’s risky, and what breaks first as you grow
Security, usability and scalability, each assessed
A prompt document written for your building agent, turning every finding into an instruction it can act on
Delivered in about a week. The fee is credited toward your build if you build with us.
What “engineered magic” actually looks like
Every system starts from a real problem in how you work. Here’s a sample of what we design, build, and connect.
Founder command center
AI inbox triage & drafting
Meeting-to-action automation
Investor deal-flow intelligence
Internal knowledge assistant
Client onboarding automation
Research & synthesis agents
Daily operating brief
From review to a system that keeps getting better
Review
We assess what you have (or what you’re planning) and show you exactly where it stands.
Plan
We agree on what it needs to do, test the idea against how people will really use it, and price the build piece by piece.
Build & test
We build the whole thing and test it against real-world use before anyone depends on it.
Evolve
Ongoing support and iteration. Your system keeps learning from how it’s used and proposes its own improvements, and you approve what ships.
Systems that improve themselves — and belong to you
Recursive self-improvement, in plain words
Our systems watch how they’re actually used, measure their own results, and propose improvements to their own workflows, prompts and code. Nothing changes without your approval. That’s the difference between software that slowly decays and software that gets sharper every month.
You own what we build
The app is yours outright. It’s built on free, widely used tools that any good developer can pick up, and our team helps maintain them. No subscription keeps it alive, and you’re never tied to us to keep it running.
Built by a builder, not a deck
Every system we design has been pressure-tested in real operations. Here’s the shape of a typical engagement.
Your ideas are already in motion. We make sure they land.
The best work we do starts where someone has already rolled up their sleeves. We bring seasoned judgement, quiet discretion, and a steady hand from first experiment to launch day.
“AI should manage the friction in goal alignment and execution, not remove the human from the knowledge, expertise, and connection to other humans.”
Let’s remove your friction
We work with a small number of clients at a time. Wonder, our intake agent, will guide you through a short conversation to understand your problem, its business case, and your budget — so we can scope the right custom solution.
