01 / Why we started
Good software shouldn't need an enterprise budget.
For most of our careers, the clients were global organisations with 6-figure budgets, steering committees and 18-month programmes. The work was good. The paperwork was extraordinary.
Meanwhile, the businesses around us in Dublin were running on spreadsheets, websites built a decade ago and software that nearly fitted. When they asked for something better, the quotes came back priced for a bank.
AI changed the sums. Routine code that took days now takes hours, which means a small team of experienced engineers can deliver what used to need a department. DCM Studio exists to pass that saving on, without dropping the standards we learned on large systems.
02 / How we work
4 things we won't compromise on.
Specified properly
Nothing gets built until it's written down and agreed. No spec, no start.
Built quickly
Working software every week. You judge progress by clicking through it yourself.
Owned by you
Your code, your accounts, your data. You can walk away with all of it whenever you like.
Honest about AI
We use AI to write code faster. We use engineers to make sure it's right. And we'll tell you when AI isn't worth adding.
03 / The team
Who you'll actually deal with.
The person on your first call is an engineer, and usually the one who'll build your project.
[Founder name]
Founder and principal engineer. 30+ years delivering enterprise systems. [2 sentences on background, specialisms and what they enjoy building]
Bigger than it looks
We're deliberately small. Where a project needs a specialist, such as a designer, a security reviewer or a data engineer, we bring in people we've worked with for years and name them in the spec.
You'll always know who's working on your project and who's accountable for it.
Next step
Here's what it does, what it costs and when you'll have it.
