How we work
We build your product, then run, maintain and scale it. The work doesn't stop at launch.
-
Build
From your idea to a production system.
We start from what you already know: who it's for, what it must do, and what can't go wrong. We write that down with you, design the architecture, then build it. The first version is built to be the foundation, not a draft to throw away.
- Product thinking and design
- Architecture, data and security
- The build, with automated tests
- Launch
-
Run
Live, monitored and looked after.
Once it's live, we run it in your own cloud accounts. We watch it, keep it backed up, and respond when something goes wrong.
- Hosting in your accounts
- Monitoring and alerts
- Backups
- Deployments
-
Maintain
Updates, fixes and security, handled.
Software ages even when nobody touches it. We keep its libraries, platforms and security up to date, and fix what breaks.
- Security and platform updates
- Fixes
- Keeping the code healthy
-
Scale
New features and capacity as the business grows.
We plan what comes next with you each quarter and build it: new features, AI where it helps, and the capacity to serve more people.
- A plan each quarter
- New features and AI
- Performance and capacity
It's yours.
Your accounts, your data and your deployment are in your name from the first day. If you ever want to run it yourself, you can.
One standard.
Everything Haiku ships is held to the same standard, whoever does the work. AI does the repetitive work, and every change is reviewed and checked before it reaches your users.
We work with a few founders at a time: ones ready to take the plunge, who want the building, running and scaling handled for them.
With the right founder, we also offer CTO-level guidance in exchange for equity. Ask us.
