Techsity

About

We only know how to build one way.

Techsity builds and runs its own software. Averil and LobeStack are live, Korvahr and Curripay are still in development, and the same team takes on three partner products a year for other companies. There is no separate agency bench, and no office you have to travel to. The people on our own releases are the people in your calls.

Mission

To design and build intelligent, human-centered technology products that make complex systems feel effortless.

Purpose

To put enterprise-grade technology within reach of every builder, whatever their size, budget, or postcode.

Three rules we actually keep.

They are written on the wall because they decide what ships and what stays a folder on someone's laptop.

Rule 01

The lab is the company.

No services division with a lab bolted on. Small teams take a problem from research to prototype, and everything we ship comes out of that room.

Rule 02

Prototypes earn their names.

A prototype that survives real users gets a name, a domain, and a roadmap. Averil and LobeStack both started this way. Korvahr and Curripay are in that room now.

Rule 03

Some prototypes die. That's the point.

Killing an idea in the lab is cheap. Killing it after launch is not. Running our own products is what keeps our judgement honest, because every recommendation we make is one we have already had to live with in production.

How the team runs.

We don't publish headcount, because it's the wrong number to judge us on. What matters is that the people who build a product are the people who run it.

Principle

One team per product

No hand-off between a build team and a maintenance team. The people who shipped it answer for it.

Principle

Write it down first

Every feature starts as a page of plain language. If it can't be explained honestly, it isn't ready.

Principle

Remote, few meetings

Fully remote, and we work to your hours rather than asking you to work to ours. Decisions live in writing so nobody has to be awake for them.

What the work is judged by.

Four words. They show up in reviews more than they show up on posters.

Clarity

Remove friction before adding features.

Craft

Every detail is a decision, not an accident.

Trust

Reliability is earned in the smallest interactions.

Momentum

Ship, learn, and compound quickly.

Fully remote, working in your time zone

Techsity started as a room for building things properly and then staying to run them. Enough time around rushed software teaches you that the expensive part is never the build. It is everything the build quietly postponed.

So we keep the client list short, put our own products in front of the same standards, and write down what we got wrong. If that sounds like the kind of team you want in the room, the door is open.

See what came out of it

Questions people ask before hiring us.

What the first conversation costs, and how many companies we take on at once.

What is Techsity?

A software company that builds and runs its own products. Averil and LobeStack are live, Korvahr and Curripay are still in development, and the same team builds platforms for a small number of other companies.

You build with AI. Is the code safe?

AI writes a lot of it and a person reviews all of it. The parts AI is worst at are exactly the parts that hurt you later: access control, data separation, dependencies nobody vetted, queries with no index. Whoever will be on call for those decisions is the one who makes them.

Do you only build AI products?

No. AI is a tool we reach for when it earns its place. Plenty of the work is ordinary software: a platform that has to scale, an interface nobody enjoys using, a system that needs rebuilding. If a model would only add cost, we will tell you that instead of selling it to you.

How fast is fast?

Two weeks to a scoped plan, and usually eight to twelve weeks to something real users are on. What we will not do is hit a date by skipping the architecture, because you are the one who inherits that technical debt, and it always comes due at the worst possible moment.

We have been burned by an agency before. Why would this be different?

Because you own the repository from the first commit, your engineers sit in the build rather than receiving it, and we are not done until your team can ship without us. We also still have to run our own four products, so a reputation for walking away would cost us more than it saves.

Can I just use Averil or LobeStack?

Yes, and you should. They are their own businesses with their own sites, averil.ai and lobestack.com. This site is the company behind them, so support for either product lives inside the product itself.

How many clients do you take at once?

About three partner products a year. That is how many we can build without the quality of our own products slipping, and it is why we sometimes turn down work we would have enjoyed. It also means nobody is ever queued behind five other accounts.

What does the first conversation cost?

Nothing, and there is no pitch deck to sit through. You describe the problem, we tell you what we would do about it, and if the honest answer is that you do not need us then that is what you will hear.

Open

Bring a problem, not a brief.

Come with the messy version. If it belongs here we will say so within two working days, and if it does not, you will get an honest no and a better direction.
