Our technology and AI stack

We use a focused, modern stack that fits our positioning as an AI-augmented product delivery studio: React and Next.js on the frontend, Node and NestJS on the back, a solid data layer and Azure OpenAI for AI features, all on AWS and Azure.

We're opinionated about our tools so products are easier to evolve, scale and secure over time. Teams don't waste cycles fighting random stack choices years later.

Categories

Key technology categories

Instead of listing every tool we've ever touched, we group our stack into four core categories: web and mobile engineering; AI and data; cloud, DevOps and security; and content platforms. This shows how we actually deliver products.

  • AI & data engineering

    AI-powered features and data foundations, from LLM-based search and assistants to recommendations, analytics and workflow automation, built on top of PostgreSQL, Redis and Elasticsearch.

    • OpenAI / Azure OpenAI, Azure AI Services
    • PostgreSQL, Redis, Elasticsearch
    • LLM search, recommendations, automation, analytics
  • Web & SaaS engineering

    Modern web and mobile frontends and APIs for SaaS, platforms and internal tools. React, Next.js, TypeScript and React Native, with Node/NestJS and .NET APIs on top of a solid data stack.

    • React, Next.js, TypeScript, React Native
    • Node.js, NestJS, .NET / ASP.NET Core
    • REST/GraphQL APIs, event-driven integrations
  • Cloud, DevOps & security

    Cloud-native infrastructure, CI/CD and observability on AWS and Azure, with security by design for government, healthcare and other sensitive domains.

    • AWS, Azure, Linux, Docker, Nginx
    • GitHub Actions, automated build/test/deploy
    • Centralised logging, monitoring and security, ISO 9001 and 27001 certified
  • CMS & content platforms

    Headless and traditional CMS setups for content-heavy sites, media platforms and public-sector portals. WordPress, Strapi and Webflow combined with React/Next.js where needed.

    • WordPress, Strapi, Webflow
    • Custom themes and components
    • Headless (Strapi + Next.js), multi-language/multi-site setups

Positioning

Why this stack fits complex products

The stack is chosen to support the kind of work you do: complex, long-lived products with real operational and security requirements, AI-augmented workflows and small senior squads that own whole slices of the product.

  1. Focused, not random

    We standardise around a modern JS/TS + .NET stack to make architecture, hiring and long-term maintenance predictable.

  2. AI-native by design

    LLMs, search and recommendations are built on top of strong data and infrastructure foundations.

  3. Good fit for complex domains

    Public sector, education, healthcare, SaaS and media with non-trivial data, workflows and security expectations.

  4. One stack across our services

    The same stack sits under every service we offer, so your product stays coherent whether we're on strategy, design or long-term support.

  1. Default stack first

    We start from our core stack for most new work: React/Next.js, Node/NestJS, .NET, PostgreSQL/Redis/Elasticsearch, AWS/Azure.

  2. Fit to the problem and team

    We consider in-house skills, existing systems, regulatory requirements and product roadmap before locking decisions.

  3. Integration-friendly

    We regularly integrate with existing CRMs, ERPs, data products and legacy systems, even if they're on a different stack.

  4. Long-term maintainability

    We avoid exotic or niche choices unless there is a strong, explicit reason.

  5. Security and compliance

    For public sector and healthcare, security and operational constraints can drive specific platform choices.
