When to build instead of subscribe: the economics of owning software

Who we are

Big-company capability, none of the big-company games

Growing businesses get sold technology built for someone else — enterprise platforms scaled down, or subscriptions that never quite fit. We do the opposite. We design, build, host and support websites, applications and infrastructure for Australian businesses of 10 to 200 people, and you own what we build. Your code, your data, your accounts. Fixed pricing, Australian hosting, one accountable team.

How we work

From first conversation to long-run support

01

Discover

We map the problem with the people closest to it — what's working, what's not, and what it's costing you.

02

Design

Wireframes, prototypes, then pixels — in that order. You see the solution before we build it.

03

Build

Working software in fortnight cycles you can actually see, on a fixed price and a fixed timeline.

04

Operate

We don't disappear at launch. Monitoring, maintenance and a team that knows your systems inside out.

FAQ

Questions owners ask us

What does it cost to work with you?

Builds are fixed-price: we scope the work, give you a number and a timeline, and hold to both. Ongoing services — hosting, support, managed plans — are a fixed monthly fee. No hourly surprises, no invoices you didn’t see coming.

Every engagement is scoped to fit, so the number arrives in a proposal, not on a rate card. The first conversation, and the recommendation that follows, are free.

Do we own what you build?

Yes. The code, the data, the hosting accounts, the ad accounts — all yours. You can take everything in-house or to another provider at any time. We think the work should be good enough that you stay because you want to, not because you have to.

How long does a typical project take?

Websites typically run four to eight weeks; applications eight to sixteen depending on scope. Either way, you see working software in fortnight cycles, not a reveal at the end.

We've been burnt by agencies before. What's different?

Mostly the incentives. Fixed pricing means scope creep is our problem, not yours. Ownership means we can’t hold anything hostage. And because we also host and support what we build, we’re accountable for it working after launch — not just for shipping it.
