Most IT services websites open the same way: a hero headline, then a strip of famous logos. It's meant to be the fastest possible proof that serious companies trust the firm. Ours doesn't have one, and that's a deliberate choice rather than a gap we haven't filled yet.
A logo is a claim you can't check
A logo on a vendor's site tells you almost nothing. It doesn't say whether the work was a six-week audit or a five-year platform, whether it went well, whether the people who did it still work there, or whether the client agreed to be displayed at all. Plenty of logo walls are assembled from a single small engagement, a free trial, or a relationship that ended badly. You have no way to tell which.
When we can't evidence a number, we don't print it. The same rule applies to names.
Your name is yours
We don't publish a client's name, logo or project details without their written permission. Many of the systems we build sit close to money, health records or customer data, and the organisations running them have good reasons not to advertise their vendors. Treating their name as ours to use would be a strange way to earn their trust — and it's a fair preview of how we'd treat yours.
What we offer instead
- Commitments we put in writing — uptime SLAs, response times and ownership terms — instead of numbers nobody can check.
- A free scoping session where you meet the engineers who would actually do the work.
- References on request: where a client has agreed, we'll arrange a conversation relevant to your sector during scoping.
- Case studies published only with written client permission, which is why that page grows slowly.
It's a slower way to build credibility. We think it's the honest one — and if it means the first conversation has to do more of the work, that's a conversation we're happy to have.
