Hi, I'm Adam.

I'm a self-taught software engineer in Johannesburg. I've spent the last few years building software, from wildlife tracking systems to SaaS products. Now I design, build and look after websites for businesses across South Africa, each with an AI assistant built in.

What you can count on

Four promises I make to every client, whatever the size of the job.

Fixed fees, in writing

I scope once, carefully. The number we agree on is the number you pay. If the scope changes, I tell you before it does.

A real phone number

Saved in your phone as "Adam". Not a help desk or a ticketing portal.

Honest fit checks

If a template would serve you better than a custom build, I'll point you at one. I'd rather lose a deal than waste your money.

Your site is yours

Clean, readable and easy to hand over. If you ever outgrow me, I'll help you move.

Where I've been

Years of building real software for real users, before and alongside the websites.
