What we build with, and what we would not →

Our Services

12 services, grouped by how you buy them. Whatever it is, it starts with a written scope and one fixed number.

Build it

Fixed-price project

New software, scoped in week one and quoted as one number.

Learn More

Connect & modernise

Fixed-price project

Making what you already own work properly, or replacing it safely.

Learn More

Run it

Project, then optional retainer

The infrastructure underneath, and keeping it standing afterwards.

Learn More

Grow & scale

Monthly retainer

Being found, and adding capacity without a permanent hire.

Learn More

Before you build

Short fixed engagement

Working out what it is, and whether it is worth doing.

Learn More

Not sure which one?

Most engagements combine two or three — one scope, one schedule, one number and one point of contact.

Capabilities

The depth is the whole argument.

A freelancer can build you a web application. What they cannot do is handle the payment reconciliation behind it, the per-location permissions it needs at your second site, the migration off the system it replaces, and the monitoring that tells you when it breaks at two in the morning.

All of it sits in house, across 6 disciplines. Most engagements draw on four or five at once, and you are quoted a single number for the outcome rather than a line item per speciality.

Browse all 20 practice areas

Each one has a page of its own: what it covers, the positions we hold on it, and what we have used it on.

The Sill platform

Every project starts at sixty per cent.

Most firms quote three months because they rebuild the same plumbing every time — logins, permissions, billing, admin screens. Work that has nothing to do with your business, billed to you anyway.

Sill is our delivery platform. It is the layer every Sillstack engagement is built on, and it is already in production — handling real users and real money on live projects, every day.

Your engagement adds the part that is actually yours. That is the entire mechanism behind the four-week quote, and there is no second one.

Sill · maintained continuously

We wrote every line of Sill and we maintain it. When we harden it on one project, that work lands in your build too — same engineers, same codebase, all year.

Industries

The same problems, wearing different uniforms.

A restaurant group, a distributor and a property manager describe their situation in completely different words and then turn out to need the same four things built.

We work across 12 sectors. Each has a page saying what that industry actually needs and naming the system we proved it in, so you can judge how well it transfers rather than taking our word for it.

What we are actually good at

  • Authority changes depending on which site somebody is standing in
  • Stock in the system has to agree with stock on the shelf
  • Money has to reconcile, daily, without a person doing it
  • The software gets used somewhere with no signal

Three Ways In

A week of thinking, a build with a date on it, or somebody on hand after launch. Each differs in how long it runs, how it is billed, and how easily you can stop.

Discovery sprint

One to two weeks

Fixed engagement

For when you know the problem but not the shape of the solution. You leave with a written spec and a fixed quote for the build — usable even if you build it elsewhere.

  • Systems and access audit
  • Written technical specification
  • Fixed quote for the build
  • Yours to keep either way

Most engagements

Build

Four weeks, typically

Fixed-price project

The main engagement. Fixed scope, fixed price, live at the end of it. You see working software every Friday, not a status report.

  • Fixed scope and fixed price
  • Weekly working demos
  • Ships on the Sill platform
  • Training and handover included
Start here

Retainer

Rolling, 30 days' notice

Monthly retainer

Ongoing work after launch, or search visibility that compounds month over month. Cancel when the numbers stop moving.

  • Fixes, changes and monitoring
  • SEO and GEO programmes
  • Plain-language monthly reporting
  • No long lock-in
Start here

We quote a fixed number against a written scope rather than from a rate card, and it does not move after you sign. Every service page says what that scope usually covers once you know which one you are looking at.

How It Works

Four weeks, in order. Average, not best case — mobile runs four to six because app store review is outside anybody’s control.

1

Week 1 · Scope

We watch how the work happens today, get access to your systems, and write a specification you sign. Screens, rules, edge cases, and an explicit list of what is out of scope.

Your time: Two or three hours: a walkthrough of your process, and reading the spec properly before signing it.

A signed spec and a fixed price
2

Week 2 · Build

Core data model, authentication and the primary workflow. Accounts, permissions and billing already exist on our platform, so week two starts at the part that is actually yours.

Your time: Friday demo, about an hour. You click a real thing with your real data in it.

Working software, not a percentage
3

Week 3 · Build

Reporting, permissions, integrations and the edge cases that only surface once somebody has used it. This is the week where the things you did not think of get caught.

Your time: Second Friday demo, plus decisions on anything the first demo raised.

Feature-complete against the spec
4

Week 4 · Ship

Deployment, monitoring, migration of your existing data, two recorded training sessions, and documentation written for people rather than engineers.

Your time: Training attendance, and a decision on who owns it internally.

Live, plus 30 days of fixes

Four weeks of our time, not yours: roughly three hours a week. The most common cause of delay is waiting for a decision, so we ask for one named person who can make them.

Why Choose Sillstack?

Every firm says it is fast and senior and secure. Here is what we actually do differently, with the downside written next to it.

Fixed price against a written scope

Not: Hourly, estimated optimistically

Costs you: It needs a real week of scoping before anything gets built.

The engineer who scoped it builds it

Not: Sold by one team, delivered by another

Costs you: We run fewer engagements at once, so there is sometimes a wait.

Built on a platform we already maintain

Not: Plumbing rebuilt from scratch, billed to you

Costs you: It is our architecture. If you need a different one, we are the wrong firm.

An honest no when we are wrong for it

Not: A proposal for whatever you asked for

Costs you: We turn down work, which is why the recommendation is worth something.

Every one of them costs you something. Any firm can list four advantages; the useful part is what each one is paid for with. How we work

Technology

Nobody Is Technology Agnostic

Every firm claiming otherwise has a stack they reach for by default. Ours is TypeScript on the Sill platform. Here is exactly when we use yours instead, and when you should hire somebody else.

If you have a team who knows your stack

We work in yours

Django, Rails, .NET, Laravel, Go. If your engineers maintain it after we leave, their familiarity is worth more than any efficiency we would gain by moving you.

If you are starting from nothing

We use ours

TypeScript end to end on the Sill platform, because that is where sixty per cent of the build already exists. This is where our defaults save you real money.

If you have a system that works but is unloved

We extend rather than replace

A layer in front, new work against a clean interface, old system untouched. Replacing something that functions because it is unfashionable is how budgets disappear.

If you want an architecture Sill does not support

We are the wrong firm

A different language, a hosting arrangement we do not run, a design we think is a mistake. We would rather say that on the first call.

Defaults, Not Lock-In

You own the repository, the documentation and the infrastructure accounts from day one. If your team takes it over, nothing about it depends on us.

Delivery model

Senior-led, start to finish.

Large firms run layered delivery because it is the only way to operate hundreds of engagements simultaneously. It works at that scale, and it costs the client context at every layer.

We operate a concentrated model instead: fewer engagements, each one owned end to end by the engineers delivering it. Decisions get made by people who understand the consequences.

Senior-led delivery

Every engagement is led by an engineer who ships, not a manager who reports on people who ship. The person in your first call is the person in your codebase.

Continuous ownership

One team carries your project from scope through to handover. Context accumulates instead of being rewritten every time the work changes hands.

Direct engineering access

You have the contact details of the people building your software. Questions get answered by whoever wrote the thing you're asking about.

Deliberate capacity

We take on a small number of engagements at a time and turn down work we're not the right fit for. It's the reason timelines hold.
