Architecture and code review
An independent look at structure, scalability, security basics and technical debt, with findings ranked by impact.
Independent technical advice for companies making decisions about platforms, architecture, vendors and delivery, from people who also build the software.
Technology choices often get made under pressure, with partial information and a vendor’s slides. We bring a builder’s view: we review what you have, lay out the realistic options with their costs and risks, and give a recommendation you can defend and a plan your team can follow.
Advice tied to your budget, team size and timeline, not a generic framework.
We look at how systems connect, where they will strain and what is cheap to change later.
Every engagement ends with an ordered plan, owners and the first two weeks spelled out.
An independent look at structure, scalability, security basics and technical debt, with findings ranked by impact.
Aligning your platform choices with where the business is heading over the next one to three years.
Comparing build, buy and open-source options against your requirements, with total cost made explicit.
Moving off legacy systems in stages, keeping the business running while the foundation changes.
Checking data, systems and processes to see which AI use cases are viable now and what to fix first.
Fractional technical leadership to steer an in-house team or an outside vendor through a project.
Interviews and a walk through your systems, goals and constraints.
Review of architecture, code, infrastructure and delivery practice against those goals.
Two or three realistic paths with trade-offs, cost ranges and risks stated plainly.
A single recommended direction with the reasoning behind it.
Sequenced work, owners, milestones and what to measure.
Optional ongoing guidance as the plan meets reality.
Our recommendations account for what implementation actually takes.
We are not tied to a vendor and we do not earn commission on what you buy.
Findings written so a founder or finance lead can follow them as easily as an engineer.
A focused architecture review or vendor selection typically takes two to four weeks. Roadmap and strategy work can run longer. Ongoing advisory is month to month.
For a code or architecture review, yes, under an NDA and with the access level you choose. For strategy and selection work, documentation and conversations are usually enough.
Yes, if you want it. Many clients take our plan to their own team or another vendor, and others ask us to build it. Both are fine.
Tell us the decision in front of you. We will suggest the shortest route to a confident answer.
