Not a vendor. Not a ticket queue. A technical partner embedded in your Shopify operation — who knows your store, your roadmap, and your business goals — and executes accordingly, every month.
No contracts. Cancel anytime. Most clients stay 12+ months.
Vendor vs. Partner
A vendor shows up when you call them. A partner shows up before you know you need them. The distinction changes how your store evolves — reactively patching problems versus proactively building infrastructure that compounds.
The Partnership Model
The partnership is structured to minimize friction and maximize velocity. No project management overhead. No briefing rituals. Just a continuous working relationship with a developer who knows your store as well as you do.
Full technical audit: theme architecture, app stack, integrations, open issues, and performance baseline. You get a findings doc and we immediately start clearing your task backlog.
1–5 tasks actively in progress at any time. Submit via Slack or a shared board. Small tasks turn around in 1–2 days. Larger builds are scoped, sequenced, and shipped without new quotes.
When we notice a performance degradation, a deprecated app, an upcoming Shopify change that affects your setup, or a better way to do something — we flag it. You don't have to ask.
A monthly async summary: what shipped, what's in progress, what we're watching, and what we recommend prioritizing next. Designed for founders who want visibility without management overhead.
Partnership in Practice
Founder spending 6+ hours/week managing a rotating roster of freelancers. Every project required a new brief, a new quote, and a new onboarding. Institutional knowledge lived in the founder's head — nowhere else.
One point of contact. All store context documented and maintained. Dev work flows continuously — no waiting, no quoting, no management overhead. Founder reallocated those 6 hours to growth work.
Custom subscription system, ERP integration, 3 major landing page builds, 40+ smaller tasks. Zero surprise invoices.
Brand had no visibility into the technical debt accumulating in their store — apps silently conflicting, a deprecated theme feature, a Klaviyo webhook that had been failing for weeks without triggering any alert.
Identified the failing webhook during a routine integration health check, traced the Klaviyo data gap it created, fixed the handler, and backfilled the missed events. Also flagged two apps that could be replaced with native Shopify functionality — saving $180/month.
$180/month in app savings. Email flow data restored. Problem the founder didn't know existed — solved before it affected revenue.
Fast-growing brand launching a new product category every 6 weeks. Dev had become the critical path — every launch was delayed waiting for custom sections, metafield updates, and campaign landing pages that took 2–3 weeks to scope and deliver.
Launch templates built once, maintained permanently. New product category launches deploy in 2–3 days instead of 2–3 weeks. Marketing team can build their own campaign pages using the modular section system we architected.
Launch cadence went from 6 weeks to 10 days. Marketing team self-sufficient on campaign pages. Dev no longer the bottleneck.

The first step is a conversation about your store, your goals, and where dev is currently the bottleneck.
