Missions · ways to engage
Four mission types
Every project starts from one of these shapes. Durations shown are illustrative ranges to help planning, not commitments; each mission is scoped with you first.

New product build from first sprint to release. Working software shown regularly so direction can change while it's cheap.
- Crew
- Design, engineering, QA
- Output
- Released web or mobile product
- Illustrative span

Recovery
For projects that have stalled or a team that has left. We assess the codebase honestly, stabilise it, then decide together what to fix, keep or rebuild.
