Discovery & blueprint
Clarity in week one.
Workshops, architecture and a clickable prototype — so the first line of code solves the right problem.
Product engineering studio · Remote-first
We engineer software that ships.
Hidook designs, builds and scales web apps, SaaS platforms and AI products for founders and teams who need them in production — not in a slide deck.
Hidook is a remote-first product engineering studio. We design, build and run web apps, SaaS platforms and AI products — and you see working software every Wednesday.
How we work
The system behind software that ships.
Weekly delivery
Everyone ships on Friday. We ship on Wednesday.
A demo and a deploy to a live URL every Wednesday, so there are two working days to watch it in production, not a weekend.
Run & scale
Watched after launch.
Error tracking, uptime and performance budgets from day one, with us on call when it matters.
Selected work
Work that is live.
Opinions
What we say no to.
we mean it- 01
An app when a spreadsheet would do.
If the honest answer is a better process or an off-the-shelf tool, you hear it from us on the first call.
- 02
Six months without a demo.
If there is nothing to click on Wednesday, something is wrong — and you should know it on Wednesday.
- 03
Juniors learning on your budget.
The people you meet on the call are the people writing your code.
- 04
Code you can’t take with you.
Your repository, your cloud accounts, your documentation. From day one.
- 05
AI features nobody measured.
No model reaches production without an evaluation set and a cost per answer.
What we build
Six disciplines, one team.
- 01 · Product engineeringWeb apps and SaaS platforms built to outlive their first version.TypeScript · Next.js · Node.js · PostgreSQL
- 02 · MVP sprintsFrom validated idea to real users, without a rewrite six months later.React Native · Expo · Supabase · Stripe
- 03 · AI & LLM systemsCopilots, agents and retrieval with evaluations — not demos.Python · Claude API · pgvector · Langfuse
- 04 · Cloud & platformInfrastructure as code, CI/CD and observability. Boring, on purpose.Terraform · Kubernetes · GitHub Actions · Grafana
- 05 · Product designUX and UI designed with the engineers in the room.Figma · Storybook · Radix · Playwright
- 06 · Technical partnershipA senior engineering partner when you need judgement, not just hands.Roadmaps · ADRs · Code review · Hiring

Questions
Before you call.
How fast can you start?
As soon as we agree on scope. Discovery usually starts the Monday after.
Who owns the code?
You do, from the first commit. Everything lives in your repository and your cloud accounts.
Fixed price or time and materials?
Both. Discovery and MVP sprints have a fixed price; ongoing product work is a monthly team.
Can you work with our in-house team?
Yes. We regularly pair with internal engineers, review their code and leave the team stronger than we found it.
Where are you?
Everywhere, on purpose. We are a remote-first team and keep at least four working hours in common with you, in Europe, the UK or the US.
