Shipped in 2016. Opened this morning.
A logistics web application, delivered ten years ago, and used every day since. Not a version kept on life support: a tool its users open in the morning without thinking about it.
It is the oldest thing we have built, and it answers the question every director asks before handing a critical process to a small studio.

We were doing this before it had a name
Automated collection from external sources, consolidation, reporting. Today it is called scraping and business intelligence, and everyone sells it. In 2016 you simply had to build it.

Collecting was never the point
The point has always been to make the data legible at the moment somebody has to decide. It is the same principle we apply today, on volumes of a different order entirely.

What ten years of production proves
A studio of five is not judged on its size but on what is still running behind it. Ten years without interruption means an architecture that held, a client who stayed, and a team that answered when it mattered.
