Start with DiscoverySee what I build

Discovery: $500 CAD. The full $500 is credited toward your project if you sign a contract.

Does any of this sound familiar?

  • Your team types the same information into spreadsheets, emails and other tools.
  • Nobody is sure which spreadsheet has the latest numbers.
  • Your website is out of date, or no longer explains what you do.
  • A repetitive task keeps someone busy every week.
  • Off-the-shelf software does not match how you work, so you work around it.
  • Customers ask for something your current tools cannot do.

These are the problems I build software to solve.

AgentWire

Built and published AgentWire, an open-source tool that runs several AI coding sessions at once on my own computer. It shows how I work. It is not something I sell.

PiinPoint

You talk to the person who builds it

I am the developer behind dotdev. There is no sales team between you and the work.

Before dotdev I managed operations at Touch Communications, was CTO of HostHamilton, a web design and development startup, and built software at Shopify and PiinPoint.

What it costs, and why Discovery comes first

Discovery is $500 CAD

2–3 one-hour meetings with your team to explore your options.

After the meetings you receive a short written summary of recommendations, scope options and a rough estimate.

The full $500 is credited toward your project if you sign a contract.

What changes the price of a project

  • How many screens, pages or workflows it has
  • How many people use it, and the different roles they have
  • How many other tools it connects to
  • Whether it replaces data from an old system
  • How much custom design it needs
  • Whether AI is part of the work, and how often it runs
