How we can help
Whether you need an application built, a second opinion on a technical decision, AI added to your product, or a clear-eyed assessment before an investment, you work directly with an experienced software executive who still builds.
Custom app development
Off-the-shelf software fits everyone a little and no one well. We design and build web and mobile applications for the way your business really operates, from first conversation through launch and beyond.
We have done this for ourselves: GameStoreOS and TopoScorer are both live products we designed, built, and run on modern cloud infrastructure.
Typical work
- Web applications, customer portals, and internal tools
- iOS and Android apps from a single codebase
- Multi-tenant SaaS products
- Integrations with the systems you already use
- Cloud hosting on AWS or Google Cloud, set up to be cheap to run
Software consulting
Sometimes you need a builder, and sometimes you need someone who has seen the problem before. We help teams make sound technical and product decisions: what to build, how to structure it, and how to ship it reliably.
Typical work
- Software and cloud architecture reviews
- Product strategy and roadmap
- Modernizing legacy systems and moving to the cloud
- Development process: planning, quality, and on-time delivery
- Working alongside your existing team, onshore or distributed
AI integration
Large language models can make software dramatically easier to use, if they are applied to the right problem and built to be reliable. We help you find where AI genuinely helps and then build it into your product or workflow.
Our experience includes production retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) for natural-language search over customer content, and Claude-powered features in our own products.
Typical work
- Natural-language search and Q&A over your documents and data
- Assistants and AI features inside existing applications
- Choosing models and keeping usage costs predictable
- Evaluating what AI can and cannot do for your use case
Technical due diligence
Before an investment or acquisition, you need to know what you are really buying: whether the software is sound, whether it can scale, and where the risks and hidden costs are.
We have been on both sides of the table: conducting diligence on an acquisition target, and leading product development through two company exits by acquisition, including one by Oracle.
Typical work
- Architecture, code quality, and scalability assessment
- Security posture and technical debt
- Team, process, and delivery capability
- Hosting costs and infrastructure risk
- A clear written report with findings and recommendations
