The Napkin is Free.
The Seats Are Limited.

The original Waffle House napkin sketch

The actual napkin from Waffle House that started a platform.

"A napkin is always free at a restaurant. Like a restaurant, I only have so many seats."

Most projects don't need an enterprise solution.

I take a maximum of 2 major platform builds per year. But most problems are solved with a prototype, an automation, or a clear architectural map.

We figure out which one you need in a single call.

Clarity

You leave with scope, rough architecture, and a story point estimate you can take anywhere.

Honesty

I'll tell you if you're over-engineering it. Or if you need less than you think.
