Build for the operator
The person using the system all day is who we design for.

About us
A partner led engineering practice
We build the systems that organisations actually run on. Not templates, not configured products bought off a shelf, but software designed around the way a business already works, and around where it intends to be in five years.

Our position
Depth, and the ownership to use it
Our partners carry years of delivery behind them in health risk administration, enterprise integration and multi site infrastructure, on systems that had to work on Monday morning. That depth is why we commit to an outcome rather than a rate card.
We own our code, our two product lines and our client relationships. The partners who win the work are the partners who do it, and the people who scope your engagement are the people who deliver it.
The people who scope it deliver it
No handover to a junior bench after signature
Our vision
To be the partner organisations turn to when the system they need does not exist yet.
Our mission
To design, secure and deploy custom systems that give our clients a real advantage in their market, and to make advanced technology feel simple to the people who use it every day.
What we hold to
The rules we build by
Secure by default
Security is part of the architecture, not a layer added at the end.
Own the outcome
Measured on whether it works in production, not on whether it shipped.
Keep it maintainable
Clear code, documented decisions, no single point of knowledge.
Commercials
How we engage
Four ways to work with us on services, and a licence model for each product. We will recommend the one that fits the problem, not the one that bills best.
Fixed scope delivery
A defined outcome, a fixed price and a fixed date. Best where the problem is well understood.
Dedicated squad
A standing team billed monthly, working to your roadmap. Best for continuous product work.
Staff augmentation
Named engineers embedded in your team, under your delivery lead.
Managed service
Monitoring, maintenance and support against a defined response window.
MedicalBytes licence
Per member per month, tiered by volume, with implementation and integration scoped after discovery.
CultiBytes licence
Per farm or per hectare subscription, with setup and sensor integration scoped after the farm survey.
6controls built into every system
Governance
Compliance and governance
Regulated buyers cannot take a supplier on trust. These are the controls we build into every system, and the standards we work to in each product domain.
POPIA and GDPR
Data classification, retention, consent, subject access and a defined breach process
Security assurance
Threat modelling, penetration testing, code review and a rehearsed incident response process
Segregation of duties
The maker of a transaction cannot be its checker or its payer. Enforced in the platform, not stated in a policy
Auditability
Every decision and payment traceable to a user, a rule and a timestamp
Continuity
Backup strategy, disaster recovery design and recovery testing, evidenced not assumed
Documented handover
Source code, data model and documentation transferred in full at the end of every engagement
