What matters to Portugal teams

Privacy, quality and clear documentation

European teams tell us they want a partner who treats data protection and quality as the starting point, not an add-on. That is how we work.

01

GDPR by design

Data minimisation, consent, EU hosting and a signed data processing agreement before any personal data is touched.

02

Documentation you can audit

Written specifications, architecture notes, test reports and handover documents, so your team or auditors can follow every decision.

03

Accessible by default

Interfaces built to WCAG guidelines, helping you meet the European Accessibility Act for digital products and services.

04

Predictable contracts

Fixed scope and price, clear milestones and acceptance criteria, and full ownership of the code and IP.

Process

How it works

1. Free assessment

We review your code, dependencies, infrastructure and data, then give you a written migration plan, risks and a fixed quote.

2. Plan and safety net

We add automated tests and monitoring around what exists today, so every change can be checked against the old behaviour.

3. Migrate in small steps

Module by module, with both versions running side by side where needed. You see progress in a demo every week.

4. Cut over and support

A planned switch-over with a rollback path, then the same engineers stay on to fix, tune and keep it current.
