We’re not just building systems. We’re building tailored foundations for small businesses to succeed in a digital-first world. And while still proudly based in London, our builders now p the globe, working together to make technology accessible for every client we serve.
who we are
Founded in London in 2018, we saw that SMEs - the backbone of society, employing 60% of the UK workforce - were still running on outdated, antiquated technology and legacy systems.
Moat Builders was created to give these small businesses access to the advanced tools once reserved for big budgets. We’re technologists who believe advancing technology is one of the most virtuous things we can do, and the best place to do it is with SMEs.
Because SMEs are numerous and present in every sector, even small efficiency gains create a ripple effect - resulting in more jobs, greater purpose, increased entrepreneurship, and a more resilient economy.
We pair deep technical expertise with a ruthless focus on real-world outcomes. No hype, no tech for tech’s sake. We use the right tools, at the right time, to deliver clear, compounding value.
For every engagement, we start with a simple question: What job does your business need done, and where can technology do it better, faster, or cheaper?

why we do it
Vision
To bridge the technology gap for micro and small businesses by accelerating the adoption of breakthrough technologies - and, in doing so, help build a wealthier, more decentralised, and more resilient society.
Mission
To deliver technology that gives micro and small businesses the same advanced tools and advantages as mega-budget enterprises, enabling them to compete on equal footing. We do this with a relentless focus on value, fairness, simplicity, and cost-efficiency. These are principles that guide everything we build.
What Drives Us
Decentralisation
When capability is spread across many small actors, society becomes more robust and resilient - antifragile. We build to empower small businesses.
Outcomes over hype
Software is a means to an end. We use tailored, appropriate technology to deliver measurable results and real value - not tech for its own sake.
Momentum
Every solution we build helps clients move faster, focus on growth, and serve their customers better.
