We'd name names, but procurement likes to be asked first.
What we build
Four things, done properly.
Most organizations need at least two of these. We scope the ones you need and tell you plainly which ones you don't.
Portals, dashboards, forms and workflows: the work that spreadsheets and email chains can't do anymore.
- Permit, grant and intake portals
- Dashboards and public reporting
- Secure logins, roles and audit trails
Assistants, search and document automation trained on your content, inside your guardrails, with a person in the loop.
- Resident and member assistants
- Records search and plain-language summaries
- Workflow automation with human review
iOS, Android, Mac and Windows apps for residents, members and field staff, built from one codebase and shipped to every app store.
- Notifications and offline use
- Maps, check-ins and reporting
- App store and desktop distribution handled
Who we serve
We know the public sector from the inside.
Procurement, records retention, ADA complaints, the board meeting calendar: we have sat on your side of the table, so we build for how your organization actually works.
Cities and counties
Public-facing sites, service portals and the records behind them.
State and regional agencies
Program sites and tools that have to meet policy, not just look good.
Nonprofits
Sites that raise money, sign up volunteers and tell the story plainly.
Associations and foundations
Member portals, grant tools and events that run themselves.
How we work
No surprises. That's the process.
01Discover
A short call, then a working session with the people who own the problem. We leave with goals, constraints and a budget range you can take to leadership.
02Design
Content first, then layout. You see real pages with real words, tested with real users, before anything gets built.
03Build
Accessible, documented and handed over with training. Your team can run it; we stay available.

Launch and support
Launch day is planned, not hoped for. After it, a support plan sized for a public budget.
Example projects
