Where our engineers have worked
Our core team built and ran systems at these businesses before Hexploits. They are not clients; our clients are named in the case studies and reviews below.
What we do
Five services from one team, so nothing falls between suppliers.
Applied AI
AI that reaches production inside your controls, with the governance your IT director can sign off.
Product engineering
New systems built, old ones modernised, and the processes that run on spreadsheets turned into software, by a team that stays to run them.
Cloud and platform
Infrastructure that is secure, observable, and costs what you were told it would.
Security and compliance
Systems that pass the review your customers, auditors, regulator and insurer will put them through, including the AI ones.
Managed support
Hosting, monitoring and a named engineer on an SLA. The contract most clients are still on years later.
Proof
Outcomes with numbers, measurement periods, and the client’s name.
Gradvisor · Charity · 8 weeks to production, then ongoing
98% faster page loads and a 12% smaller cloud bill for a UK careers charity
swarmd.ai · Software vendor · 6 months
Enterprise AI control plane delivered in six months at 75% under budget for a UK software vendor
JobVantage · Recruitment technology
99.9% availability and sub-100ms responses for a recruitment intelligence platform, at negligible infrastructure cost
One team, one contract
The same people from the first workshop to the third year of support.
From the first conversation to steady state, without changing supplier.
Strategy
A fixed-length assessment of the system, the process or the idea. You get a written report with options, costs and a recommendation you can take to the board.
2–4 weeks · fixed price
Engineering
A team embedded in your organisation or run in-house at Hexploits, your choice, with a named lead, a weekly written report and a fortnightly demo to the people paying for it.
Embedded or in-house · weekly reporting · change requests in writing
Launch
Security review, cutover plan, runbooks and training before anything goes live. Nothing ships on a Friday.
Security review · rollback plan · runbooks
Operate
Hosting, monitoring, patching and support on an SLA, with a monthly change allowance and a quarterly review. Most of our clients are still here.
SLA · named engineer · 30 days’ notice
If you only need one stage, that is fine. The point is that the person who wrote the assessment is the one answering the phone in year three.
Sectors
Where the systems are regulated, audited, or too important to get wrong. Each page has the problems we see, the work we do and the proof.
Ways to work with us
Not a sequence. Each is bought on its own, with a published starting rate.
Five ways to work with us. Take one, or all of them.
Discovery and assessment
You have an idea, a problem or a system and need to know what it would take
Delivery and iteration
You want software built or changed, by a team embedded with yours or run in-house
Hosting on Hexploits Cloud
Your cloud bill is too high and you want the same reliability for 10–30% less
Deployment and monitoring
You have something live and need someone to own it, on an SLA
Fractional CTO
You need technology leadership, not a team
How we work
The same on every engagement, whichever way you bought it. Written down, so you can hold us to it.
Governance and reporting
A written report every week, a working demonstration every fortnight, live progress against agreed KPIs, change priced in writing, and a named person to escalate to with a response time.
Security while we work
Your code never touches our laptops: engineers work in virtualised environments behind a VPN. Changes to your environment are made as code, with a name and a time. Every copy of your data has a chain of custody. Documentation on request.
Offboarding
Thirty days’ notice on monthly contracts. You already own the code, the infrastructure and the accounts, so leaving is a handover, not a rescue.
What clients say
Every Google review we have is five stars. Read them on Google.
Director, Lothbury
“Top quality delivery, and reasonable price. Will be using again.”
Director, IO Solutions
“Fantastic to work with. High level of attention to detail and flawless communication throughout. Would recommend to anyone looking to develop or improve a software product.”
“Fantastic company and our development partner for Gradvisor, a social mobility careers platform with national ambitions. Extremely responsive and mission-oriented. Cameron owns any shortfalls humbly - rare for IT providers. Thinks like a client too.”
“Working with Hexploits has genuinely been a pleasure, and I see them as my scaling partner for the foreseeable future as JobVantage grows. If you’re looking for a development team who combine strong AI/engineering capability with honesty, flexibility and a real interest in your business, I’d strongly recommend them.”
“Hexploits have been a breath of fresh air on Peppasync, an AI/ML autonomous decision platform for commercial leaders in retail and ecommerce. The depth and thoroughness the team brought to design and architecture was second to none.”
Insights
Written for the people who have to make the decision, not only the people who build it.
What happens when you get in touch
No discovery phase before you know the price. No account manager between you and the engineer.
1. Within one working day
A named engineer replies
From a personal address, with two or three times for a 30-minute call, or a written answer if that is what you asked for.
2. Within two working days of the call
A written scope and an indicative price
What we would do, what it would cost, how long it would take, and who would lead it. Nothing to sign yet.
3. When you are ready
A fixed proposal and a contract you can read
Statement of work, service schedule, data processing agreement, insurance certificates and the security summary. Then week one starts.
Questions buyers ask first
What size of business does Hexploits work with?
What does it cost?
Who will we actually be dealing with?
Are you safe to let near our systems?
What happens if we want to leave?
Do you only work with certain languages or frameworks?
We still run on spreadsheets and email. Is that too small for you?
What happens after we get in touch?
