How we work

Four ways in, and we would rather be paid on what the system does.

We are not day-rate contractors and not a traditional agency. We take a long-term position inside a small number of businesses, build the software they operate on, and tie our own economics to how well it performs.

Engagement models

Pick the model that matches what the system is for.

  1. Embedded partner

    A long-term technical seat inside one business

    We work as the technical side of the business, designing, building and running the software it depends on. Not a day-rate contractor and not a traditional agency: a lead architect accountable for the whole thing, from the database to the day it goes live, bringing in specialist partners only where a job needs them.

    Who it suits

    Any business with real operational complexity and no technical lead of its own, that wants someone permanently on the hook rather than a project team that leaves.

  2. Marketing partner

    We build it, then we grow it together

    Where the software is the growth engine (a store, a membership, a booking system, a product launch), we build it as a marketing partner and take our return from the revenue it generates, not from the build invoice.

    Who it suits

    Founders and owners with a commercial idea and no technical partner, where the software is the revenue engine rather than a cost centre.

  3. Per-unit infrastructure

    Priced per customer live, not per hour or per user

    For work that repeats (onboarding a customer, launching another branded instance, wiring up another integration), the build is productised. A fixed price per unit delivered, plus ongoing economics where volume flows through what we built. Not seat licences: one price per live customer or instance.

    Who it suits

    Resellers, partners and platform businesses whose growth is measured in customers brought live rather than features shipped.

  4. Nexuz Managed

    We host it, run it and keep it healthy

    The system lives in your accounts, but we handle the infrastructure, monitoring, backups, updates and the small fixes that keep it moving. You get a working product without hiring an ops person or learning how to keep a server alive.

    Who it suits

    Businesses that need a live, reliable system but do not want to manage hosting, security patches, uptime or the day-to-day care themselves.

Service line

Card processing, placed and integrated.

We can place the card processing for your platform as part of the build: one contract, one accountable party. The gateway is white-labelled, credentials stay server-side, and the integration is built to match your checkout rather than forcing your checkout to match a generic embed.

This service line runs in partnership with Omnipay Solutions, an established payments provider. They handle the card processing; we design, build and run the platform around it.

Capability areas

Five kinds of software, one standard of build.

  1. Internal platforms

    The business runs on spreadsheets, inboxes and a few tools that disagree with each other, and nobody can answer a straight question quickly.

    What gets built

    One system your team logs into, covering the people, the work, the customers, the money and the reporting, with the right access per role and a record of every change. For example: a full recruitment, training and governance platform built to replace years of manual process.

    What you own

    Code, database, migrations and hosting in your accounts.

  2. Payments and billing

    Taking money is manual, inconsistent, or reliant on someone remembering to check that the right amount was charged.

    What gets built

    Card payments, subscriptions and in-person terminals wired in properly, with card details never touching your systems and every amount confirmed on the server before it is taken. For example: a gateway that onboards new merchants with a hosted embed or a self-contained code pack.

    What you own

    The payment flow, the customer records and the reporting on top.

  3. Websites and online stores

    The website is slow, out of date, or disconnected from the system that holds the real numbers, and your reporting no longer tells you what is working.

    What gets built

    A fast, well-built site or storefront kept in sync with your stock and systems, with consent-respecting tracking that still measures accurately when browsers block it. For example: a headless storefront with live product sync and server-side conversion reporting.

    What you own

    The site, the tracking setup and the data flowing through it.

  4. Sensitive and regulated data

    You hold information about people (customers, patients, learners, staff), and your controls exist as a policy document rather than something the software enforces.

    What gets built

    Access rules enforced in the database, personal data classified, hidden by default and encrypted where it matters, consent captured, and evidence you can produce on request. For example: safeguarding and clinical records with review gating and a one-click evidence pack.

    What you own

    The controls themselves, written into the system you keep.

  5. Automation and content pipelines

    Work that repeats every week is done by hand, and output is capped by how many hours your team can give it.

    What gets built

    A pipeline that does the repetitive part automatically and reliably, with people reviewing the result rather than producing it. For example: course material taken from structured content through to narrated video, published at volume without a studio.

    What you own

    The source material, the pipeline and everything it produces.
