Working with us

We have over two decades of experience creating websites, managing web teams and training developers. We’ve built up a track record of delivering on technical challenges.

We're small by design, a team of two focused on delivering meaningful value with each interaction. As such, you will be working with one or both of us on a project, we enjoy this work too much to outsource or get too many other people involved!

To kick off a project, the easiest thing is contacting Toby by email. After a short back and forth, we will generally ask to sign an NDA and get access to the materials we would potentially be working with. From there we can make sure this is a project we can add value to, and if it is, we can go from there!

Once a project starts, we will communicate in the channels that best suit you, some of our clients prefer email, others like Slack or regularly Zoom calls. We can be flexible to your needs and ways of working.

We're based in Belfast, Northern Ireland, and we're happy to do in person meetings if you're local. We work with several clients from around the world, timezones are rarely an issue.
