01 · Ignition sprint
Two weeks, thesis to spec
We convert the idea into a written spec, an architecture decision record, a clickable prototype and a costed build plan any team could execute. You keep all of it, with or without us.
Zero → one build unit
Engine Ignite gets the rocket built and launched. Pre-seed founders, funded seed teams and corporate innovation groups hand us a thesis and a deadline; we return a production product they own outright.

02 · Engine build
One senior builder takes the plan to a production product: product design, application, data model, infrastructure. No handoffs between specialists, no coordination tax. Every Friday something real is in your hands.
03 · Launch ops
Instrumentation, CI/CD, environments, alerting and a runbook. Unglamorous work that decides whether v1 holds together the week real users arrive.
04 · Hand-off
Documentation, architecture walkthroughs, and help hiring and onboarding the team that takes it forward. Finishing is somebody’s job. We make sure it is a named somebody.
