How we work together

An audit can be a standalone engagement or the first step toward a retainer — either is fine. Either way, the path looks roughly like this.

1.Discovery call — free, 30 minutes

Tell us about the application, how it's used, and what kind of relationship you're after. We'll tell you honestly whether we're a good fit.

Email us to arrange a call →

2.Audit — from £1,500, ~5 working days

We go through the codebase, infrastructure, integrations, deployment, and risks. You receive a written report regardless of what happens next. If we both decide we'd like to keep working together, the audit informs the retainer proposal.

3.Retainer proposal — optional, after the audit

Based on what the audit surfaces, we recommend Care or Long-Term Care, propose a fixed monthly fee with the reasoning, and outline the first month's priorities. Three-month minimum, thirty days' notice to end.

In plain English

Audits are paid up front; retainers monthly in advance. You keep the written audit report regardless of what happens next.

Retainers run on a three-month minimum, then continue with thirty days' notice.

Async-first. Business-hours response. Scheduled releases.

Long-Term Care is one client at a time. Waitlist when full.

You own the code we write for you.

Hosting, licences, and third-party fees are billed separately.

These care plans cover existing Laravel applications. New applications, full rebuilds, mobile apps and compliance work are outside their scope. For a bespoke system, see our project work.
