Capabilities

What we can help with.

We work on product plans, software architecture and the engineering needed to build and run systems. You can ask us to review a specific problem or work alongside your team on the implementation.

Product strategy & discovery

Decide what to build and which assumptions need testing.

We work with product and engineering teams to check feasibility, compare options and set priorities. Working software and user feedback can then test those decisions.

  • Product priorities and feasibility
  • Build-or-buy decisions

AI-assisted engineering

Help your organisation make the most of AI in product development and engineering.

We help organisations develop and adopt a practical process for working with AI. This covers where AI can help, how people and agents work together, and the tools and review needed to support them. We apply the process to real projects and measure whether it improves delivery and product outcomes.

  • AI adoption and team working practices
  • AI-assisted discovery, design and delivery
  • Tooling, review and measurement

Architecture & platform modernisation

Review an existing system or design one that can support the next version of your product.

We examine how the system fits together, where it is difficult to change and what depends on it. The work can include system design, interface contracts and a migration plan that the team can implement.

  • Architecture assessment and design
  • Platform modernisation roadmaps
  • Integration and migration planning

Engineering & delivery

Help teams get software built and released.

When progress is slow, we look at the causes: technical decisions, unclear ownership, dependencies or the release process. We can work on the implementation and help teams and suppliers agree who is responsible for what.

  • Implementation and technical direction
  • Delivery recovery and team development
  • Release processes and supplier responsibilities

Technical assessment & due diligence

Understand the technology behind a business before investing in it or acquiring it.

We review the platform, the engineering team and the cost of operating and changing the system. Findings cover technical risks, supplier dependencies and compliance concerns, with their implications for the deal or business plan.

  • Technical due diligence and M&A readiness
  • Risk and dependency assessment

Cloud, data & operations

Review hosting costs, migrate data platforms and improve day-to-day operations.

We look at where the money goes, how data reaches the people who need it and what happens when a service fails. Work can include cloud planning, data migration, deployment automation and monitoring.

  • Cloud and data platform planning
  • Automation and operational improvement
  • Resilience and cost reviews

Experience

From data platforms to game systems.

Previous work includes migrating an 80TB data platform at Gamesys, leading a 65-person technology organisation at Push Gaming and supporting BeyondPlay before its acquisition by FanDuel.

We also build SGF, an Unreal Engine framework available to license.
