Custom Tools & Data Infrastructure
Sometimes the tool you need doesn't exist. We build custom data infrastructure for organizations with problems too specific for off-the-shelf software: multi-partner coordination systems, automated pipelines, matching algorithms, and R packages that solve real problems.
No vendor lock-in. No licensing fees. Just tools you own completely. Our open source track record (4 CRAN packages, 100,000+ downloads) is proof we know how to build things that last.

100,000+downloads since 2016. R packages used by researchers, nonprofits, and data teams worldwide.
Questions We Help You Answer
When off-the-shelf software doesn't fit, you need something built for how your work actually happens.
How do we manage data across multiple partners, sites, or clients?
Why it matters: Coordinating across organizations means juggling different systems, formats, and timelines. Without shared infrastructure, things fall through the cracks.
- Data orchestration pipelines that pull from multiple sources
- Automated scheduling so data stays fresh without manual work
- Secure, isolated data flows for each partner or client
We're tired of paying for expensive software that doesn't fit our exact needs
Why it matters: Enterprise software comes with enterprise prices and enterprise compromises. You end up paying for features you don't use while hacking workarounds for what you actually need.
- Custom tools built exactly to your specifications
- Open source foundations with no licensing fees
- Full ownership of your code and data
Our process is too unique for off-the-shelf tools
Why it matters: When you're matching surplus food to hungry families, routing resources to underserved schools, or coordinating across dozens of community partners, delays cost more than time. Real people are waiting on the other end of these systems.
- Custom logic built around how your work actually happens
- Systems designed for urgency, not bureaucracy
- Infrastructure that puts action ahead of process
We need something that can grow and learn with us
Why it matters: Static databases become outdated the moment you build them. You need infrastructure that adapts as you learn what works, not something you have to rebuild every year.
- Systems that improve as more data flows through them
- Modular architecture so new features don't require a rebuild
- Documentation and handoff so your team can evolve it
