Now taking on a small number of founders.
Technical services

A quieter side of GitFoundry.
For software that needs care, not noise.

If you are looking for a website, this is the wrong page. The main services page is for that. This page is for clients who already have software and need a careful pair of hands for the parts no one wants to touch. Codebases that have grown faster than they should have, data scattered across too many places, the system everyone is afraid to touch. Quoted per project, charged once, never on retainer unless you ask.

Technical peace of mind,
without the agency overhead.

A small studio, working directly with you, on the parts of your software that matter most. There are no account managers, no layered fees, and no commitment beyond the project itself. If a website is what you are after, the main services page is the better starting point.

Automated testing

Find bugs before
your customers do.

Robust automated tests (unit, integration, end-to-end) so your software ships with confidence and stays stable as it grows. Reduces technical debt, speeds release cycles, and keeps customers from finding the problems first.

Best for
Startups and small teams whose software has started to break in production more often than it should, or whose release cycle has slowed because no one is sure what a change might affect.
Initial audit & setup
£1,500 to £5,000 A one-time project fee. Scope depends on existing codebase complexity and the level of test coverage you want from day one.
Ongoing expansion
£75 to £120 per hour Optional, only as you build new features, with no retainer required.
Data modelling & integration

Turn implicit schemas
into something concrete.

Designing efficient database schemas, building APIs, and integrating disparate systems so your business decisions sit on data that is clean, connected, and queryable.

Best for
Businesses with data scattered across spreadsheets, SaaS tools, and bespoke databases that no longer talk to each other. Or teams planning a new data-driven feature and wanting the foundations laid carefully.
Discovery & design
£2,000 to £8,000+ A one-time project fee. Scope depends on the complexity of existing systems and the new requirements.
Implementation & integration
£80 to £130 per hour, or fixed-price project Quoted after discovery, with a clear scope and outcome agreed up front.
Vibe code rescue

For codebases that
grew faster than they should have.

Rapid AI-assisted development can produce a great deal of working code, and a quietly unmaintainable system underneath it. This service stabilises, refactors, and gets the codebase back to a state a human can hold in their head.

Best for
Teams who built quickly with AI assistance and have hit a wall: bugs accumulating, performance suffering, no one quite sure what the code does any more. Also a fit for inherited legacy codebases that need a careful, neutral review.
Diagnostic audit
£500 to £1,500, fixed fee A written report on the state of the codebase, the most important risks, and a proposed action plan. You can stop here if that is all you need.
Rescue & refactoring
£2,500 to £10,000+, project-based Or £90 to £150 per hour for ongoing work. Scope is shaped by the audit, not estimated cold.
Maintenance

For the systems
no one wants to touch.

Ongoing support, monitoring, security updates, and small enhancements for software that runs the business and cannot afford to fail. The kind of work that goes unseen when it is done well.

Best for
Businesses depending on a critical, older system with no internal team to look after it. Or organisations who would rather pay a known cost each month than absorb the risk of an unmaintained codebase.
Retainer
£500 to £3,000+ per month Monthly or quarterly. Scope (typically 10 to 40 hours per month) and response times agreed up front. No surprises on either side.
Ad-hoc support
Hourly, on demand For when the only thing that matters is getting it working again. Higher hourly rate reflects the immediate availability.

Same studio.
Different work.

The static-site service exists to give people a permanent, low-cost web presence. These technical services exist for the rare project where someone has a working software system and needs a careful, independent pair of hands to keep it healthy.

If you are not sure which side of GitFoundry fits your situation, send a short note describing what you are trying to do and we will tell you honestly. Sometimes the right answer is "neither". That is fine too.

Tell me about
the system you have in mind.

A short email is enough to start. We will reply with whether we can help, and if so, with a proposed shape for the engagement.
