Custom Web & Cloud Application Development

Software tailored to how your business actually operates. Java, Groovy, Grails, Spring Boot. Built to scale, designed to last.

Built for the businesses no off-the-shelf tool can fit.

Most growing businesses hit a point where SaaS stops bending. The sales process is too specific, the pricing logic is too unique, the data model the platform forces is wrong for how the company actually operates. That is the moment for custom software - and the moment most teams burn 6-12 months on a build that gets thrown away.

We have spent 28 years shipping production web and cloud applications for startups and growing businesses. The stack is Java, Groovy, Grails, and Spring Boot. The reason is simple: it is the most boring, durable, well-supported way to build software that needs to last more than two product cycles. We use boring stacks on purpose. Boring scales. Boring hires. Boring still runs in 5 years.

Engagements range from short, scoped builds (a focused feature, a migration, a performance rescue) to multi-quarter retainer work where we act as the engineering function for a growth-stage company. Every project starts with a discovery call, a written scope, and a clear definition of done.

What we build

Architecture & system design

Right-sized architecture that handles your real load plus a realistic 10x. No premature complexity. No hand-rolled infrastructure where managed cloud primitives exist.

Greenfield application development

New systems from concept to production on Java, Groovy, Grails, and Spring Boot. Domain modeling, API design, frontend integration, deployment pipelines.

Legacy modernization

Take over a stalled codebase, document risk, raise test coverage and observability, ship incremental fixes, and turn a system you are afraid to touch into one your team can move quickly on.

Cloud-native deployment

AWS-first deployment with proper environments, CI/CD, infrastructure-as-code, and cost discipline. Elastic Beanstalk, ECS, Lambda, RDS - whatever fits the workload.

API & integrations

REST and GraphQL APIs, third-party platform integrations (Stripe, Salesforce, Zendesk, Snowflake, etc.), and the messy real-world plumbing that connects them.

DevOps & reliability

CI/CD pipelines, automated tests, structured logging, metrics, alerting. Built for teams that ship frequently and sleep through the night.

Stack

Languages & frameworks: Java, Groovy, Grails, Spring Boot, Kotlin. Frontend: TypeScript, React, Tailwind CSS, Alpine.js. Cloud & infra: AWS (EB, ECS, Lambda, RDS, S3, CloudFront), Docker, Terraform. Data: PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, Redis, Snowflake.

28 years of shipped software.

From early-stage MVPs to systems handling more than \$1B in cumulative revenue. Real production experience compounds in ways that frameworks alone never can.

Frequently asked questions

These are the production-grade stacks that scale from a one-person startup to enterprise without rewrites. Java has 30 years of library and tooling depth, Spring Boot is the de facto standard for cloud-native services, and Grails gives Rails-style productivity with the performance and operational maturity of Java. We use them because they are the right tools for sustainable, long-running businesses - not because they are trendy.

Yes. We have shipped TypeScript, Python, and PHP systems and integrate with whatever stack a client already runs. We default to the Java ecosystem when starting from scratch because it produces lower long-term cost, but we will not force a rewrite when an existing stack is fit for purpose.

Yes - and a lot of our work is exactly that. We onboard quickly, run a structured assessment, document risks, fix the highest-leverage issues first, and bring CI, observability, and test coverage up to a state where future work is safe and fast.

By designing for the load you actually have plus a realistic 10x, instrumenting from day one, choosing managed cloud primitives over hand-rolled infrastructure, and load-testing before traffic arrives. Premature scale is wasted money. The right answer is observability plus architecture that does not have to be torn out when the next traffic step happens.

Engagements run from short, scoped builds (4-8 weeks) for a defined feature or migration to multi-quarter retainer relationships where we operate as the engineering function for a growth-stage company. Every engagement starts with a discovery call, a written scope, and a clear definition of done.

We work as either fixed-scope projects (typically 4-12 weeks) or monthly retainers for ongoing engineering work. Scope drivers include current codebase quality, integration complexity, infrastructure choices, and team handoff requirements. Every engagement starts with a discovery call and a written scope so you know exactly what you are paying for before any code is written.
