A small studio with strong opinions and the receipts.
We're a small senior engineering studio. We build software that actually ships, and we run ten platforms ourselves so we know what it costs to operate the things we build for you.
BuiltByGo was founded in 2017 as a focused alternative to bloated agencies. Senior engineers, no junior layers, no account-management theatre.
We pick our work carefully. We start at £25k for a reason — anything smaller doesn't justify the team we put on it. In return, you get a studio that's been operating production software for nearly a decade.
If your problem is interesting and your budget is real, we'd love to hear from you.
What we build.
Bespoke web applications
Complex, data-heavy apps on modern stacks. Internal tools, customer platforms, multi-tenant SaaS.
AI systems & automation
Real agents and workflow systems embedded into your operations. Document processing, triage, decisioning.
Platform architecture
Scalable, resilient system design for growth. The unsexy infrastructure that decides whether you scale or stall.
E-commerce
WooCommerce, Shopify and fully bespoke. Checkout-focused, conversion-obsessed.
API & integrations
Robust APIs and third-party connections that automate the workflow around them.
Cloud & DevOps
Infrastructure as code, CI/CD, edge-first deployment. Boring and reliable.
Names you might know.
A boring process that ships.
Discovery
Goals, audience, the existing technical landscape. One week, fixed fee.
Architecture
Stack, infrastructure, and the scalable parts nobody thinks about until they break.
Build & iterate
Two-week sprints. Weekly demos. Continuous feedback.
Launch & scale
Performance work, rigorous QA, smooth go-live, ongoing support if you want it.
