Services
Bespoke development. AI-powered. Your stack or ours.
We build custom software, mobile apps, websites and AI systems, and we offer three ways to engage: fixed-scope projects, AI-focused builds, or a dedicated retainer. Here's the shape of the work we do.
Engagement models
How we price and deliver
Scoped, fixed-price builds with a written spec and fixed milestones. Your source code at the end. Fast-track option: projects capped at R85,000 delivered in a single calendar month, scoped through Luna AI Xpress Projects.
Scope a project →Claude-powered features shipped into your product: chat assistants, intelligent wizards, document processing, content pipelines, search and retrieval, multi-agent workflows. Priced per engagement.
Discuss an AI project →A dedicated engineer (or small team) reserved for you on a fixed monthly block of hours. Ongoing development, maintenance, bug fixes, feature work. Rolls over, cancels any time with 30 days' notice.
Enquire about a retainer →We rebuild your WordPress site as a native, lightning-fast website in a single day. No more plugins, no more vulnerabilities, no more slow load times. You own the code, we host it securely on the cloud, and you can add features through a small support retainer that WordPress could never do.
Migrate my website →Secure, managed hosting on Azure or AWS. CI/CD pipelines, uptime monitoring, security patching, scaling and incident response. We host your native website or application so you don't have to think about infrastructure.
Discuss hosting →We don't just write code. We run projects: scoping, planning, stakeholder communication, risk management and delivery. Our seniors have managed real engagements long before AI entered the picture.

Senior developers, AI-accelerated
Our team is made up of experienced engineers who use AI as a force multiplier, not a crutch. The result: faster delivery, higher quality, and software that's built to last.
Our seniors were building production systems, managing releases and solving real problems years before AI tools existed. That context, knowing what can go wrong, what scales and what doesn't, is something no prompt can generate.
Anyone can get AI to produce code that looks right. Shipping code that works under load, handles edge cases and survives production is a different skill entirely. Our team knows the difference because they've lived it.
Every senior on our team can scope a project, manage a stakeholder relationship, and deliver on a deadline, not just write a function. You get project leadership built into every engagement.
AI-accelerated workflows mean fewer billable hours for the same (or better) output. You pay for expertise, not time spent typing.
Automated code review, test generation and refactoring keep the bar high even when timelines are tight. Speed doesn't come at the expense of maintainability.
We use AI to move faster, not to skip thinking. Architecture, data modelling, security and UX decisions are made by engineers with years of context, not auto-completed by a model.
