The Challenge

A new product for news publishers had to go from nothing to production-ready, on a real timeline, with a small team and no room for the quality to slip.

What We Delivered

A complete full-stack application with 30+ features: expert dashboards, admin comment management, embeddable widgets, role-based access control, and a user invitation system, designed, built, and shipped to production.

How We Build

AI-driven development gave a two-person team agency-scale output. Security and infrastructure were reviewed at senior level, and the test suite was held to a quality bar that checks whether tests actually catch bugs. The result is not a prototype: it ships and runs.
