How We Work

A process built to remove
uncertainty before it costs money.

Good projects fail when expectations are vague. This page shows how we reduce risk before work starts, keep communication clear and avoid surprises during delivery.

What happens
when you contact us.

When you send a message, we look at the actual business problem behind the request. You do not need a perfect brief before contacting us.

If the project makes sense, we ask the right questions before talking price. If a smaller or simpler solution is better, we say that early.

The goal is to make the next step obvious. No pressure, no vague promises and no commitment before the scope is clear.

First response

Usually within one business day with either useful questions or a clear next step.

Discovery call

Usually 30 to 60 minutes, focused on goals, constraints and risks.

Written direction

For suitable projects, you receive a written scope and direction after discovery.

Typical timelines

Small websites can move quickly. Larger software and infrastructure work depends on scope, integrations and decision speed.

Step by Step

A clear path, step by step.

Each stage exists to reduce uncertainty. You know what is being decided, what is being built and what comes next.

01

Discovery

We begin by understanding your business, existing systems and the problem you need solved. This stage is about asking the right questions before making any technical decisions. We look at what you currently have, what is not working and what success looks like for you specifically.

Discovery happens primarily as a structured conversation. For larger projects we may request access to existing documentation, system diagrams or technical specifications if they exist.

02

Planning

Based on the discovery output we produce a written proposal that includes the project scope, technical approach, timeline with milestones and a fixed price. Everything is written clearly enough that a non-technical reader can understand what they are agreeing to.

We do not begin work until the proposal is agreed and a deposit is received. We do not begin work on verbal agreements or informal understandings.

03

Design

For projects with a visual component we produce design mockups before writing production code. This includes wireframes for structural review and high-fidelity designs for visual approval. Design rounds are defined in the proposal so there is no ambiguity about revision scope.

For backend or infrastructure projects this stage covers technical architecture design: system diagrams, data models, API specifications and integration plans.

04

Development

We build in milestones that match the plan. At each milestone you receive a working review build to test. We do not disappear for weeks and return with something you have never seen before.

Development happens on a private repository with access granted to your technical team if relevant. Code is written to be readable and maintainable by a competent developer who was not involved in the original build.

05

Testing

Before launch we conduct structured testing across the full scope of delivered functionality. This includes functional testing, cross-browser and device testing for front-end projects, performance benchmarking and security review for externally facing systems.

You receive a testing period to validate that what has been built meets the agreed requirements. Issues found during this period are fixed at no additional cost.

Launch

Deployment is executed on a defined schedule with rollback procedures ready. For critical systems we coordinate launch timing to minimise business risk and conduct immediate post-launch monitoring.

You receive full ownership of everything delivered: source code, credentials, domain ownership, hosting accounts and documentation. Nothing is held back or maintained as leverage for future work.

07

Support

After launch we offer structured maintenance and support agreements for clients who want ongoing care. This is not a mandatory upsell. Some clients have internal teams that take over. Others prefer we remain responsible for the system long-term.

Support agreements are scoped clearly: what is included, response times, what constitutes a new project rather than maintenance work. No vague retainers that leave both sides uncertain about what is covered.

Common Questions

Things people ask before starting.

Do you work with clients outside Luxembourg?

Yes. Our team works remotely and we have clients across the EU. Being Luxembourg-based matters primarily for legal entity, EU hosting and local meetings when needed. The work is not geographically constrained.

What is the minimum project size?

We do not set a formal minimum but we are not the right choice for very small one-off tasks. Our process is designed for projects where doing things properly matters. Simple websites start from around €3,000. Custom software from €8,000.

Can you take over an existing system?

Yes, though we always start with a technical audit first. We need to understand what we are taking responsibility for before we commit to maintaining it. The audit is a small fixed-price engagement that informs whether and how we proceed.

How do you handle scope changes?

Changes that fall outside the agreed scope are documented, priced and approved before work begins on them. We do not proceed with out-of-scope work without written agreement. Small clarifications within the spirit of the original scope are handled without fuss.

Who owns the code and assets?

You do. Full stop. Upon final payment you receive all source code, design files, credentials and documentation. We do not retain licences or impose restrictions on how you use what we built for you.

Do you use subcontractors?

Occasionally for specialised work such as copywriting or illustration. Core engineering work is done in-house. We are transparent about this in proposals and you always know who is working on your project.
