Boise, ID · Custom Software + AI

Custom software for Boise — built the AI-native way.

We pair senior engineers with an AI-accelerated delivery model to ship custom software for Boise's semiconductor, B2B SaaS, and operations operators — without the fragile output that gives AI a bad name.

Senior-only engineering · AI-accelerated delivery · you own 100% of the code

AI changed the economics of custom software. We rebuilt our process around it.

Boise hosts a strong semiconductor, B2B SaaS, and operations-tech market — anchored by Micron's headquarters and fabs, a growing relocation-driven SaaS scene, and a healthy ag-economy software bench. Senior hires are six figures, months out, and picked over by Micron, regional employers, and the relocation rotation from coastal metros. AI changes the math, but only when senior people own the parts AI gets wrong.

On a Boise semiconductor, manufacturing, or SaaS build, AI handles the repetitive 70% — schemas, scaffolding, CRUD, dashboards, glue. The 30% AI gets wrong is the part the fab floor or your platform team will catch: race conditions on a shop-floor write, supply-chain data that arrives out of order, multi-tenancy edges that fail in a Fortune-500 rollout, and integration with legacy ERP or MES AI invents instead of reads. Raw AI output ships those silently.

We build for Boise operators — semiconductor supply-chain and operations tools, manufacturing and shop-floor apps, growth-stage SaaS shipping into mid-market and enterprise buyers, ag-economy platforms, and modernization of decades-old enterprise stacks. Our model: AI handles scaffolding and the repetitive 70%; a senior engineer owns architecture, security review, and signs off on every change.

Show, don't tell

AI writes the first draft. A senior engineer signs off.

Every change runs through review for security, tests, and architecture before it ships — that review is the product.

On a Boise semiconductor or manufacturing build, the failure modes are concurrent-write races, out-of-order supply-chain events, and non-idempotent EDI handlers. Senior review catches them before a missed lot or a fab-floor escalation does.

What we build for Boise companies.

Manufacturing

MES, IIoT & production software

Shop-floor systems, plant analytics, and supplier portals that connect old machines to new tools.

Product

SaaS platforms

Multi-tenant products with auth, billing, and dashboards — MVP to scale.

AI

AI applications

Copilots, RAG, search, and agents grounded in your data, with guardrails and evals.

Modernize

Modernization

Move legacy systems onto a modern, maintainable stack — incrementally, no big-bang.

Internal

Internal tools & copilots

Operations tooling that replaces the spreadsheet-and-tribal-knowledge workflow.

Web

Web apps & portals

Fast, custom applications and customer portals on a modern stack.

Senior, on-shore, AI-accelerated

A senior team that moves at AI speed.

You work with senior engineers in Mountain Time who own architecture, manufacturing-data quality, and integration with legacy ERP and shop-floor systems — fitting into a downtown Boise SaaS standup, an Eagle B2B PR cycle, or a Meridian operations review — not a junior pool with raw AI output bolted on.

Boise's senior engineering pool is dominated by Micron and a growing transplant bench from coastal markets — three-to-six months to hire and constantly recruited by remote roles. An AI-native team gets you shipping this week, flexes monthly, and doesn't add to your local hiring backlog.

Common questions from Boise teams.

Do you work with Boise companies?
Yes — we serve Boise and Idaho companies with senior, on-shore engineers in Mountain Time. Most collaboration is remote-first, with on-site available for kickoffs and key milestones.
Do you work with semiconductor supply-chain and shop-floor systems?
Yes. We've built supplier portals, factory-floor apps, and supply-chain visibility tools that connect old machines and ERP systems to modern UIs. We design for the data realities: late, partial, and sometimes contradictory.
Can you integrate with legacy ERP and MES systems?
Yes. We've integrated with SAP, Oracle, NetSuite, and a long list of legacy MES and PLC-adjacent systems. We map your existing integration contracts and build adapters AI can't invent — because they're real, undocumented, and AI doesn't know them.
Is AI-built software production-ready?
Yes — when a senior engineer reviews every output, adds tests, and hardens it. The horror stories come from shipping raw AI code unsupervised. We don't, and we support what we ship.
Will we own the code?
100%, from day one. We deliver to a repository you control — no proprietary platform, no lock-in.
How fast can we start?
Usually within days. A short scoping call defines the build, the timeline, and a fixed quote.
Can you work with our existing team?
Yes — we augment in-house teams, review their work, and set standards, or run the build end to end. We flex to how you work.
