    Microservice Development

    That Task Eating Three Hours Every Day?
    We Can Make It Take Three Seconds ].

    Small, focused tools that plug into your existing stack and remove a single source of friction. Not a platform overhaul. Not a year-long project. One job, done well.

    What It Actually Is

    A microservice is just a small, focused tool.

    No buzzwords. No subscription you'll forget about. A piece of software that does one thing reliably, every time.

    One job, done well

    Solves a single, specific problem — not a Swiss army knife trying to do everything.

    Plugs into your stack

    Talks to the systems you already use. No rip-and-replace, no new logins for your team.

    Yours to own or subscribe

    Clean, documented code. Buy it outright, or let us host and maintain it for a monthly fee. Flexible to fit how you buy software.

    Real Examples

    Three things we've built. Three teams that got their week back.

    Before

    Daily sales report

    Ops manager pulls data from three dashboards every morning, formats it in Excel, emails the leadership team. Roughly two hours every day, before the real work even starts.

    After

    Auto-delivered at 7am

    Microservice queries the sources, builds the report, drops it in the team's inbox before the day starts. The manager reviews and adds context. They don't compile.

    "We don't hand you a new way of working and wish you luck. We build around yours, connect the dots, and have something running before you've finished onboarding a new hire."

    How We Build It

    Four steps. Typically one to three weeks.

    No ceremony. No discovery phase that lasts longer than the build itself.

    Two Ways to Engage

    Buy it outright. Or let us run it.

    Same microservice, two commercial models. Pick the one that fits how your business buys software.

    One-time build

    Own It

    Buy the microservice outright.

    • Fixed-scope build, fixed price.
    • Code, infrastructure, and IP transfer to you.
    • Optional support retainer after handoff.
    • Best for: teams with internal engineering capacity, balance-sheet preference for CapEx, or strict data-residency requirements.
    Monthly service

    Run It For You

    We build, host, and maintain it.

    • Monthly fee covers hosting and monitoring.
    • No internal ops burden — we own uptime.
    • Cancel or convert to ownership anytime.
    • Best for: teams without dedicated DevOps, faster time-to-value, predictable OpEx budgeting.

    Not sure which fits? We'll recommend the right model on the scoping call based on your stack, team, and budget cadence.

    Honest Qualifier

    When a microservice is the right call — and when it isn't.

    Good fit

    • • A repetitive task that someone owns every day or week.
    • • Clear inputs and outputs — you can describe what "done" looks like in two sentences.
    • • Currently human-owned, but the human isn't adding judgment most of the time.
    • • You want to free up capacity, not replace your team.

    Not a fit

    • • You need a full platform rebuild, not a single tool.
    • • The workflow keeps changing weekly — there's nothing stable to automate yet.
    • • No clear internal owner to validate the build or make decisions.
    • • You're looking for an off-the-shelf SaaS — we build custom, not licenses.
