Custom Software

Replace expensive SaaS with bespoke Claude-built systems.

When the right tool does not exist off the shelf, we build it. Claude Code Developer plus AI Technical Product Owner. You own the architecture, the security, and the IP.

The thesis

$500K consultancy assessment replaced. Bespoke Claude-built platform from $20K. You own it forever.

The maths is brutal: a $10K-per-month SaaS contract is $360K over three years. A bespoke replacement, built once, is cheaper, fits better, and you own it forever.

The team

Two people. One build.

Smaller is faster. We staff each engagement with the minimum effective team — typically a Claude Code Developer plus an AI Technical Product Owner. Larger builds add capacity, not hierarchy.

Claude Code Developer

Senior full-stack engineer fluent in Claude API, agentic workflows, and bespoke RAG architectures. Sydney-based. Australian-built code.

AI Technical Product Owner

Translates business requirements into AI-native designs. Owns the roadmap, manages stakeholders, ensures the build matches the brief.

Build principles

How we work.

You own everything.

Code, infrastructure, model weights (where applicable), data, IP. We build. You own. No hidden licensing, no platform lock-in.

Multi-vendor by default.

Claude is our default for capability, but we will use OpenAI, Gemini, or open models where they fit. The product is what matters.

Security built in, not bolted on.

Aligned with Australia's 8 AI Ethics Principles and APRA CPS 230/234. Privacy, accountability, and human oversight from day one.

Documented as we go.

Every architectural decision, every API surface, every deployment runbook — written down, handed over, maintainable by your team.
