01 — What we do

Services

Mobile, web, security research and embedded hardware — built end to end, in-house.

What we do

Four lanes. One mission.

Every service is run the same way: seriously, to production, and with the security hat on. If a build needs a hostile review, firmware, or a backend, it's all in-house.

01Custom Web & Mobile Apps

Full product delivery — not just a repo. We scope, design, build and deploy web apps, PWAs and mobile experiences that people actually keep using.

  • App-store-free PWA installs
  • Offline-first architecture
  • Stripe, Supabase & live sync
  • CI/CD to production
ReactNext.jsReact NativePWAStripeSupabase

Recent: BCW Mobile — installable, offline-first donation & dispatch app for a street-outreach crew.

02Security Research & Pentesting

We find the cracks before the market does. Offensive engagements, infrastructure and web penetration testing, and deep crypto / seed-recovery research — with findings you can act on.

  • Web & infra penetration tests
  • Vulnerability & tool research
  • Crypto wallet & seed recovery
  • Clear disclosure reports
PentestVuln researchOSINT toolingSecure code reviewDisclosure

Recent: seed-recovery & vulnerability research tools shipped as public projects.

03Custom Electronics & Firmware

From schematic to shipping firmware. Bespoke embedded systems on ESP32-class silicon with polished touch UIs, distributed node devices, and hardware-software integration that just works.

  • ESP32 / ESP-IDF firmware
  • LVGL touch UIs
  • Wireless node devices
  • Board bring-up & tuning
ESP32ESP-IDFLVGLC / C++Connected nodes

Recent: CODEPET — an AI digital pet on the Waveshare ESP32-S3 Touch AMOLED.

04Freelance Engineering & Consulting

Senior hands without a permanent seat. Architecture reviews, codebase rescues, CI/CD and infrastructure, and the occasional impossible integration. Tell us where it hurts.

  • Architecture reviews
  • Codebase rescue ops
  • DevOps & CI/CD builds
  • Technical strategy
ArchitectureDevOpsAuditsRescue ops

Hourly, sprint-by-sprint, or outcome-based — sized to your budget.

Continuous attack-surface monitoring as a subscription

A hosted monitoring service that re-reads a domain's public footprint every day — Certificate Transparency logs, public DNS, the TLS handshake and ordinary HTTP headers — and emails you the moment any of it changes. Free scan first, $19/month to keep watching.

  • Passive only: crt.sh, public DNS, TLS handshake, HTTP response headers
  • Free anonymous scan with a shareable report, no account required
  • Daily re-scans with a plain-language diff of what changed
  • Alerts on new subdomains, expiring certs, DNS drift and missing headers
  • Self-serve billing via Lemon Squeezy as merchant of record
  • Free monitoring for registered charities and nonprofits

Saskatoon Street Project

Offline-first directory of the services you need to actually reach

A directory of the services someone on the street in Saskatoon actually needs to reach — crisis, shelter, food, health, harm reduction, legal — built for the case where your phone has no bars and you need a number, not a website. The whole directory ships inside the app and works with the radio off.

  • Installs to the home screen; the entire directory is in the bundle, not fetched
  • Works with no signal — search, category filters, and every number available offline
  • 81 services across 13 categories, from 911 to tenancy clinics
  • Every entry records the page it was read from and the date, so the data is auditable
  • Flags closures, permit expiries, and seasonal services before you walk across town
  • No accounts, no analytics, no cookies — nothing about a visit leaves the device

03 — How

Approach

Small senior teams, working software, and no hand-offs to the void.

How we work

Four moves, zero surprises

A small, senior team working directly with you. No account managers, no hand-offs — the people you meet build your product.

01

Scope

We listen hard — requirements, threats, constraints. You get a crisp spec and a fixed price before a line of code ships.

02

Design & Prototype

Architecture and UX on paper and in code. You see something walkable within days, not months.

03

Build & Harden

Production code with the security hat on. Tests, review, and pentest-worthy hygiene from day one.

04

Ship & Support

Deployed to your domain or ours. Monitored, documented, handed over clean — with retainer support if you want it.

Threat-modeled by default

Every deliverable ships with a hardening and review pass — as much because we'd want it done to us as because it's the right engineering.

04 — Engagement

Pricing

Fixed scope, transparent rates, and a commercial model that scales with you.

Priced by gravity

Start small. Scale hard. Always honest.

Free quotes, no strings. Landing pages from $100 — while the market charges $599+ for a page alone. Price accumulates upward with the gravity of the sale, not with markups.

Gravity rule 01

Price scales with the gravity of the sale — not with templates, seats or page counts.

Gravity rule 02

Each gravity rung accumulates on the last. Bigger sale, bigger build, bigger price. Systematically.

Gravity rule 03

Free quotes. Fixed price before a line of code ships. Pay in milestones.
