A TECH TEAM ON-DEMAND: PAY-AS-YOU-GO TECHNOLOGY SERVICES FOR SMALL BUSINESSES

Plug us in for progress on projects, backlogs, or blockers. From fixing bugs, to building features, to launching systems, we take on your tech work. Seamless, flexible, and all at one simple rate.

WE’RE MOAT BUILDERS

A multi-skilled tech team when you need it, for as long as you need it

Founded in London in 2018, we were created with a mission to give growing businesses access to the same powerful technology that large corporations rely on, without the enormous fees.

Too many tech companies are expensive and fail to understand smaller businesses' unique challenges. Not us.

We make cutting-edge tools accessible, helping businesses like yours work smarter, grow faster, and stay competitive. Today, our global team continues to deliver practical, high-quality tech solutions designed to help you reach your full potential.

WE’RE DIFFERENT

£40/h FLAT RATE FOR ALL SKILLS

Whether you need a quick upgrade, transformative software, or extra hands for your team, our rate stays the same.

There’s one price, no matter what you need. It’s clear, predictable, and designed to make getting expert support feel straightforward from day one.

SET YOUR BUDGET OR PAY AS YOU GO

Need a quick fix or ongoing support? Either way, with our pay-as-you-go model, you get help when required without the commitment of a retainer. Alternatively, you can get extra peace of mind by setting your budget.

The choice is yours. You get complete visibility from the start, so there are no surprises, just support that fits your finances.

EVER-PRESENT ACCOUNT MANAGER

Consider us part of your team, ready to answer your questions and get to work. All you need to do is send us an email, message us on a chat, or nudge us in a shared doc.

No ticketing system. No generic inbox. You’ll have a named point of contact who already knows your stack, your priorities and how you like to work.

SWITCH US ON AND OFF

Our open-ended contract lets you stop and re-engage when you want. There are no strings attached. We set the foundations for future collaboration so when we team up again, there’s no need to repeat your processes or reintroduce your team.

Many clients pause for months and pick up right where they left off. We keep your context, codebase and documents ready so you can restart instantly.

HERE FOR SPRINTS, MARATHONS, OR THE WHOLE JOURNEY

How different collaborator types suit different project durations

A continuous cycle built around your needs

Whether you need one-time support or long-term partnership, our process is designed to adapt and re-engage whenever it’s needed.

Get in touch anytime

Tell us what you need, whenever you need it. We’re easy to reach through email, company chat and shared docs (just tag us like a team member).

We assess and plan

We take the time to fully understand your challenges and build a tailored solution. You’ll receive a clear plan with realistic timelines and next steps.

We execute and report back

Once you give the green light, we get to work. You’ll receive regular updates throughout the process. Need something else? Just loop back to step one – we’re always here.

WHEN YOU
SHOULD HIRE US

Overwhelmed by day-to-day tasks

Tech issues and maintenance are eating up time, leaving you unable to focus on growing your business.

Burned by unreliable providers

Past experiences with tech contractors have left you sceptical. You need a partner who delivers.

Limited resources for an in-house team

You can't justify hiring a full-time tech team but still need guidance.

Manual processes slow you down

From data entry to scheduling, outdated workflows are inefficient, error-prone, and cost money.

Tools that don’t scale

Your current systems can’t keep up with your business’s growth, causing bottlenecks and missed opportunities.
