Scope
A working session with the engineers who would do the build. We tell you honestly whether we can help, what it would take, and what we would not do.
We build three production platforms — Sprintsail, Drydock, Shortlist — and run them ourselves. When you hire us for cloud architecture or vertical AI, you work with the same engineers who ship and operate that stack every day.
Declare your app — Function, Database, Bucket, Queue — then sail deploy to AWS. Migrate to a managed K8s runtime when ready. Same handler code. Apache 2.0.
sail migrate — infra, secrets, dataCandidates earn a Verified credential through a graded assessment, a hands-on lab, and a 45-minute session with a senior engineer. Hire from a pool that's already proven.
Push source code, get a routed and TLS-secured app. Buildpacks under the hood. Built on Korifi (CNCF), operated by Orion. Free POC tier, production tier on-demand.
cf push + org/space RBACWe don't recommend what we don't run.
Orion builds across the nine layers — infrastructure to governance — with the evaluation discipline that keeps the system honest after the launch demo is over.
One team, one timeline. We scope, build, operate, and hand off — or stay on as operators if that's the deal. No rotating consultants, no hidden subcontractors.

CDK-first cloud architecture, Sprintsail primitives where they fit, vertical AI on Bedrock + Claude. Everything is reproducible from source.
We run the platform in production with you for as long as it takes for your team to take it over. Observability, on-call, and incident review included.
Documented runbooks, source-available IaC, and a verified engineer through Shortlist if you want one on staff. No vendor lock-in either direction.

sail migrate. Drydock runs Korifi (CNCF) — you can self-host if you want. Anything we operate, you can take over.Every platform on this site was built because we needed it ourselves. We do not market what we have not operated through a real outage.
And what's in the way. We will tell you honestly whether we can help, what it would take, and which of our engineers would run the work.
