Built for the real world

Software that does something useful.

We design and build websites, custom software, automation and AI systems that solve actual business problems. No beige buzzword soup. No mystery black box.

What we do

Small enough to care. Technical enough to build the awkward stuff.

From a polished local-business website to a bespoke operational platform with payments, admin tools and AI in the engine room.

01 / WEB

Websites

Fast, modern, mobile-first websites that look like your business deserves to exist in this decade.

Custom software

Dashboards, order systems, portals, internal tools and odd little machines that replace spreadsheets and headaches.

Automation & AI

Practical automation, intelligent processing and AI-assisted workflows with humans still firmly in charge.

Selected work

We build our own businesses with the same tools we build for clients.

That means the software gets tested where it hurts: real customers, real orders, real operations.

Commerce + operations

Cadarn Slate Crafts

Full e-commerce ecosystem with product catalogue, checkout, payments, order handling, stock/admin tooling and custom production workflows.

Image processing + automation

Cadarn Proof Engine

A specialist production system built to turn customer artwork into usable engraving-ready outputs with repeatable processing and operational controls.

Business websites

Local service businesses

Purpose-built websites designed around enquiries, trust, service areas and the decisions customers actually make.

Games + interactive

Wonky Drake Games

Interactive projects and browser games where product design, code and ridiculous amounts of iteration collide.

We like software that quietly turns “we do this manually” into “that just happens now.”

How we work

Clear problem. Working build. Improve from reality.

Understand

What is actually costing time, money or patience?

Design

Strip the idea down to the parts that matter.

Build

Ship a real working version, not a 90-page slide deck.

Refine

Use real-world feedback to make it sharper.

Have a problem worth fixing?

Tell us the messy version. We’ll work out what the software should be.
