How We Help
Tell us the problem. We work out what needs solving, build the whole thing in house, and stand behind it long after launch.
Web apps & platforms
The system your whole business runs on - shaped around how you actually work.
When spreadsheets and five different apps stop keeping up, you need one place that does the job properly. We build the platform your team relies on every day - shaped around how you actually work.
Customer portals, booking and quoting tools, dashboards - the systems whole businesses run their day out of. Locked down to the security standard the work demands.
We keep improving it based on how people actually use it, so it works well on day one and stays that way.
Labs
Tech for the land - and the animals and machines that work it.
Too much ground, too few people, and the work that matters happening out of sight. We're building tech that watches over animals and takes on the jobs that are hardest to staff - most of it still in trials.
Whether it's an ear tag on a cow or a robot in the orchard, the idea's the same: take the guesswork out of country too big to watch by hand.
All built in house. We start with a small trial that earns its place before anyone commits to a full rollout.
Mobile apps
Your idea in people's pockets - an app they actually keep.
Most apps get deleted within a week. The ones that stick feel quick, obvious, and worth opening again. We take an idea from first sketch to live on both stores - and look after it long after.
10+ apps shipped across health, fitness, sport, field work, and finance. We know what gets through app-store review - and what keeps people coming back.
One build runs on both iPhone and Android, feels native on each, and works offline. Same in house team from planning to post-launch.
Labs
Our R&D for the land and its animals
Too much ground and too few people to keep eyes on it all. Labs is where we prototype the sensing and automation to close that gap, and prove it in trials before it's built for real.
Remote Livestock Health Monitoring
Find the sick animal before it becomes a sick herd.
Designed to watch herd health remotely and flag an animal that's off - sending its exact location to the manager's phone before illness spreads.
Compact ear tags would read temperature, movement, and location, then send it back over satellite or cell. Staff ride straight to a known problem instead of searching for one.
We're scoping trials with farmers now; the tags and alerts are still in development. Any rollout starts as a small, proven trial.
- Catch illness early: Temperature and behaviour changes would flag a sick animal days before it's visible.
- Go straight to the animal: Every alert would carry the exact GPS location.
- Covers remote country: Data would return over satellite or cell - no-signal country still covered.
- Compact, low-maintenance hardware: Slim, solar-powered ear tags.
- Start small, prove it, scale: Scoped trial first, full rollout when it's proven.
- Built and run in house: Software, hardware, and alerts - one team, end to end.
What it does: Health Monitoring, GPS Location, Satellite & Cell, Early Alerts.
Autonomous Harvesting
A robot that picks the ripe fruit on its own.
Finds the ripe fruit, plans a path through the branches, and picks gently - no one steering. Proven in 3D simulation before touching a real orchard.
AI vision spots ripe fruit in real time; the arm picks without bruising. Built and tested virtually first.
Same see-it, reach-it, handle-it approach - pointed at the harvest that's hardest to staff. Trial on real crop, prove it, then scale.
- Finds the ripe fruit: AI vision identifies what's ready in real time.
- Plans its own path: Most efficient route through the branches, cutting time per cycle.
- Picks without bruising: Gentle, precise gripping - reliable every time.
- Proven before it's built: Validated in 3D simulation before hardware is committed.
- Hard-to-staff work, handled: Takes on seasonal, labour-short harvest jobs.
What it does: AI Vision, Path Planning, 3D Simulation, Gentle Gripping.
Conservation & Wildlife Tracking
The same tech that watches a herd can help bring a species back.
The same tracking tech we'd build for livestock, pointed at conservation. Lightweight trackers would map where native wildlife goes and flag when an animal is in trouble.
Small, low-profile trackers - leg band, anklet, or backpack harness, matched to the species - would send back movement and location data so conservators know where to focus.
Unusual movement, or none at all, would flag an animal in danger early enough to act.
- Eyes on rare species: Lightweight trackers would reveal where native animals roam.
- Spot trouble sooner: Unusual movement would flag an animal that may be in danger.
- Made for the animal: Leg band, anklet, or soft harness - matched to the species.
- Same approach, many species: The same tracking tech we'd build for livestock, pointed at conservation.
- Data that guides action: Movements mapped over time to inform protection decisions.
What it does: Lightweight Trackers, GPS Telemetry, Native Species, Field-Proven.

Robotic Automation
An orchard robot that finds the ripe fruit and works out how to reach it.
Our showcase build. AI vision picks out the ripe fruit and the arm plans a path to reach it through the branches. It runs in 3D simulation today - that's where we prove the hard parts before any metal gets cut.
Right now this lives entirely in simulation. We've built the vision that spots the fruit and the path planning that reaches it - the seeing and the thinking, proven on screen before a single part is made.
It's the same approach we'd take to any hands-on job that's hard to staff: prove it virtually, trial it small, and scale only once it's earned it.
- Sees the fruit: AI vision picks out what's ripe in real time.
- Plans the reach: Works out a path to the fruit through the branches.
- Proven on screen first: Built and tested in 3D simulation before any hardware.
What it does: AI Vision, Path Planning, 3D Simulation, R&D.
