Development services

Custom-built software

We specialise in Scala and functional programming, big data, information systems, web services, and distributed and cloud computation.

In our experience, the best way to build software is to get the right people in the right environment with the right tools for the job. We have spent years developing this process to help you get your product to market, fast.

How we can help

Bootstrap

Use our experienced team to get your project started right. We work with you to deliver the first iteration and transfer knowledge to your team.

Complete product delivery

We can start a new project or take on an existing one. We will run and support it over a longer period.

Troubleshoot

If you project has veered off course, or is not at the velocity you expect, we can diagnose and help get you back on track.

The software Underscore created was delivered on time and is easy to use and fast. We thoroughly recommend them as a software development partner.
