What we hear from clients

Recurring challenges in software & hi-tech.

From garage to scale

The systems that worked for a 15-person engineering team rarely survive contact with 150.

Security catches up the hard way

Most scale-ups inherit security debt. The first SOC 2 audit is where it all surfaces.

Cloud spend trajectory

Cloud bills double, then double again. FinOps becomes a permanent discipline, not a project.
