# Most companies rent their software. We build the kind you own.

Custom software, web applications, automation and audits of the systems you already run. We hand over the code and the documentation. If you want us to, we will also administer the technical accounts, handle maintenance and look after your environment for the long term.

## What we do.

### Custom development

We start from how your team actually works, not from a specification written in the abstract. The aim is to replace the spreadsheets, the copy-pasting and the endless email threads with a tool that does the job. You leave with the code, the documentation, and the ability to take the whole thing over yourself.

#### Websites and web apps

Customer portals, back offices, internal tools. Fast to load, easy to build on.

#### Business software

A tool that fits the way you work, instead of the other way round.

#### Automation and AI

Scripts and models for the repetitive work, where they earn their place.

#### Inherited systems

A legacy tool, a supplier who moved on: we take it on, steady it, then build on it.

### Audits and inherited systems

We look at the real state of the code, the environment around it and the data before recommending anything at all. You come away knowing what is about to break, what is expensive to maintain, and what is worth keeping.

#### Code and architecture

Quality, security, dependencies, tests, and whether a new team could pick it up.

#### Deployment and data

Deployment, backups, access, data flows, and the places things are fragile.

#### The cost of putting it right

Priced by priority, so the decision rests on more than a hunch.

#### Keep it or rebuild it

Both routes costed side by side, with the risks and the timelines.

## What we commit to.

We are just starting out, so there are no client logos to parade and no figures to sell you. Instead, here is what you can hold us to from the first project onwards.

- **1** point of contact, from the first conversation to delivery
- **24** working hours to a first reply
- **100%** of the code and documentation handed over, nothing held back
- **2** founders, hands-on in every project

## Our own projects.

Alongside client work, we build the products that make technological independence simpler. One is live, the other is still being built.

### tensel (Live), tensel.eu

Application hosting in Europe. Connect a GitHub repository, push, and the rest is handled. Builds, HTTPS, domains, logs and rollback included, on infrastructure run from Paris.

### Code hosting (Exploring)

Repositories, code review and continuous integration, in a European alternative to GitHub built for small teams.

Tensel is live and you can try it today. Code hosting is not accessible yet, and we will build it out alongside its first users.

> For twenty years, going with an American supplier was the sensible call: better, cheaper, more integrated. That is no longer true everywhere, while the legal risk has only grown.

## Tell us what brings you here.

A specific project, an idea that is still vague, or something you already run and want an outside opinion on. The first conversation commits you to nothing, and you will be talking to one of the two founders.

We reply within 24 working hours
