You own what we build
Every client engagement ships with the full source code, from day one. No monthly licence on your own platform, no runtime you cannot host, no permission needed to keep building. Since 2012.
Why this is the first thing we say
Most software relationships end badly in the same way. The platform works, the business grows, and then the terms change — a licence goes up, a feature moves behind a tier, a roadmap turns somewhere you did not want to go. By then the cost of leaving is the whole system.
That leverage only exists because someone else holds the code. We took the opposite position: the software we build for you is yours outright when we hand it over. If we are the right team to keep building it, you will keep us because the work is good, not because leaving is expensive.
What "you own it" actually means
Ownership is easy to claim and easy to hollow out. Here is the specific version.
The full source, not a deployment
You get the repository: application code, custom modules, theme, build tooling and deployment configuration. Not a compiled artefact, not access to a hosted instance.
Host it wherever you like
Built on Drupal and open-source infrastructure, so it runs on your servers, your cloud account, or ours. There is no proprietary runtime that only we can operate.
Hire anyone to continue it
Drupal coding standards, automated test coverage on the code we ship, and documentation written for a developer who has never met us. Another team can pick it up.
No licence on your own platform
No per-seat fee, no annual renewal to keep your system running. Agency partners license our product platforms instead, and those terms are agreed before you commit, never after.
Warranted after handover
One year of warranty by default and up to three, from the team that built it. Ownership does not mean being left with it.
A fixed price you agreed first
Scope, date and cost are committed once the architecture is agreed, so the commercial terms do not shift after you are already dependent on the result.
Who this matters most to
Public sector and intergovernmental buyers, where procurement rules often require that the delivered system can be maintained independently of the supplier. Universities and research bodies with funding cycles longer than any vendor contract. And any business that has already been through a platform migration it did not choose.
If you are none of those, ownership still costs you nothing here — it is simply how we contract.
See it working before you commit
We build a working prototype first, so you are deciding against something real rather than a proposal.
