Product leadership with accountable delivery.

We design it properly, prototype it fast, take it to production, then stay on to run and grow it.

Based in Queenstown. Working with operators and founders in NZ, AU and the US.

Who we help

Two kinds of client. One way of working.

Operators

Replacing a system that's holding you back

You run an owner-led business on spreadsheets, paper or a tool that has let you down. You need software your crew will actually use, from people who stay around after launch.

See Monk Earthworks

Founders

Founder with a product to build

You have the idea and the market, maybe a rough v1. You need scope, sequence and architecture calls made well, before you spend the runway.

See TendIT

How we work

Architecture first, so we can prototype fast and support it for years.

How we work
  1. 1 3 to 5 days

    Blueprint

    The problem, the users and the constraints. A plan and a fixed price for the first block.

  2. 2 Before any screens

    Architecture and stack

    Data model, security, integrations and hosting, on a proven stack. The foundations that let us move fast later.

  3. 3 Within weeks

    Working prototype

    Built inside your business, next to the people who will use it. Real software, not specs.

  4. 4 In blocks

    Production

    A two-week live review on real work, then hardening: security, backups, monitoring, performance.

  5. 5 Ongoing

    Run and grow

    AWS-certified DevOps keep it healthy. A fractional product team keeps it moving.

Run and grow

Launch is the start. We stay on to keep your system healthy and your product moving.

About support

Monitor

Regular health checks, uptime and error monitoring. Issues caught before your users notice.

Respond

Problems investigated and fixed. Larger work costed and agreed before we start.

Run on AWS

AWS-certified DevOps handle hosting, patching, backups, scaling and cloud cost control.

Evolve

A fractional product team: roadmap, new features, analytics and user feedback, as much or as little as you need.

The team

One Growth Pilot team behind every engagement.

Product leadership, architecture, engineering and AWS-certified DevOps, working one process, with one contract and one point of accountability.
