Services from A–Z

Before writing a single line of code, one thing must be clear: What exactly are we building, for whom, and why? We’ll help you analyze requirements and contexts of use so that your project is aligned with your users’ actual needs – not just assumptions. We’ll work with you to model business processes, develop a well-thought-out information architecture, and plan the next steps so that, in the end, everyone involved knows what they’re working toward.

Web servers, databases, CMS, APIs, and more: We integrate all backend components into a high-performance, stable, and well-designed system – whether on your own server or in the cloud. Keywords: Kubernetes, Linux, nginx, Unix, Node.js, PHP, Perl, Go, and many more.

We’ll help you design and build your website or application so that it’s accessible to everyone – regardless of ability, device, or assistive technology. And as a bonus, your site will become more robust, better, and often faster.

Digital accessibility isn’t just a nice-to-have – in many cases, it’s actually required by law. But what’s even more important to us is that it’s a prerequisite for social inclusion. That’s why we’ve founded a Community of Practice for accessibility.

Cookies, tracking, analytics – none of that works without consent anymore. But a cookie banner must not be annoying, has to comply with legal requirements, and should integrate cleanly with your systems. We advise you on selecting and implementing a suitable consent management tool, support you in integrating it into your application, and help you evaluate opt-ins accurately. Technically sound, transparent, and traceable.

Need a sparring partner for your digital project? Someone to review your system? Or maybe you don’t even have a project yet, but you want to solve a problem? We offer open-minded, independent advice backed by years of experience across dozens of projects. Whether it’s about strategy, system architecture, tool selection, or development methodology – we help you ask the right questions and make well-informed decisions. In the end, we always provide an honest assessment: If we’re the right fit for the implementation, we’ll be happy to take it on. If we’re not, we’ll recommend what we believe is the best path forward for you.

Managing your web content made easy. We’ll help you choose and implement a CMS that truly fits your content, your team, and your budget – from streamlined solutions for single pages to systems for large editorial teams with complex approval processes. Our favorite is Kirby CMS: fast, flexible, and free of unnecessary bloat.

You have a complex product portfolio, countless variants, large data volumes? You work with data from different sources that are difficult to access or not presented in an understandable way? We make complexity manageable. We develop digital tools to organize complex content related to product selection, configuration, or information. This helps users make decisions and streamlines processes – presented in a user-friendly way and seamlessly integrated into your existing systems. Keywords: Elasticsearch, MongoDB, MySQL, Postgres, Redis.

How can you deploy new features or entire applications quickly and reliably without turning every update into a nerve-wracking experience? We help you implement automated processes for your Development Operations (DevOps) and set up or optimize your infrastructure. This creates a direct link between development and operations, making update processes faster, more secure, and more predictable. When using scalable cloud platforms, we support you and flexibly adapt your infrastructure to your actual needs. With monitoring, you can keep track of the status of your applications at all times. Keywords: Docker, Kubernetes, Helm, Grafana, Prometheus, AWS, Azure

To our DevOps services!

We work at the intersection of design and development. We help your design teams create user-friendly and implementation-friendly designs. This makes your application better, more robust, more durable, and more cost-effective. But we also help you with the actual implementation and application of design concepts for your website or web-based application using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript or TypeScript – from static pages to complex applications built with modern frameworks like Vue. Our specialty.

We don’t provide hosting services! However, we’re happy to support and advise you on choosing a hosting provider, setting up your server or cloud, and getting it up and running. We draw on our many years of experience and our close network of partners in this field.

Humans are visual creatures. Maps and visualizations help to locate things, understand complex data, and recognize relationships. We assist you and your team with the modeling, aggregation, enrichment, and refinement of data, as well as the conception, development, and deployment of map applications and (interactive) visualizations. Keywords: Open Layers, MapBox, Google Maps, Open Street Map, Leaflet, Processing, p5.js

Trust is good – security is better. We help you set up your website or application to be as secure as possible – from safe defaults and transport encryption to hardening servers and software components. For us, data security isn’t an add-on, it’s a core part of every technical architecture. We help you identify risks, take action, and better protect your systems – pragmatic, clear, and robust.

AI holds a special place on this list because it represents more than just a single service. We can’t do justice to its diverse areas of application in a single paragraph. Nevertheless, AI must not be left out here. That’s because it opens up entirely new possibilities for almost all the other services in this catalog. Your solution benefits from this—as does our shared journey toward it.

AI has long had a major impact on our own day-to-day work. However, keeping track of it has become a challenge. That’s why we’ve founded a Community of Practice AI. There, we curate news, share experiences, and test tools and models.

The most beautiful, smartest, and best website is of no use if it is too slow. We help identify and solve performance issues. Keywords: SEO, Google, Web Core Vitals, UX, Monitoring, Scaling

Got a brilliant idea? Not just a creative rush – no, an idea with massive potential. You have a (product) design? It’s right in front of you: nicely fleshed out. You could now sink a lot of money and commission someone with the implementation. Because software and web-based applications quickly become complex and expensive. Or: We’ll build you a prototype first – whether it’s a quick wireframe or an interactive high-fidelity clickable mockup – to get smarter, to test, to learn…

Design, optimization, and implementation of websites and web-based applications that adapt to various screen sizes and devices. This is especially important for optimal display, performance, and user experience on mobile devices. Keywords: SEO, Google, Web Core Vitals, UX

We help you make your digital offering visible – to both humans and machines. Whether it’s through technical SEO that makes your website faster and more readable for search engines, or paid search advertising (SEA) that reaches the right users at the right time. We support you with setup, optimization, and performance analysis – with solid technical know-how and zero buzzword bingo.

How should the individual components of your application work together so that it functions today and remains scalable tomorrow? We help you plan technical architectures that meet your requirements – whether monolithic or microservices-based, tightly coupled or modular. We consider scalability, maintainability, and future technical implementation from the very beginning, ensuring that a sound technical concept evolves into a robust system.

What should the user interface (UI) of your digital product look like? What is the look & feel? How can we best support users in achieving their goals? These are questions we address through optimal design solutions and the best possible user experience (UX).
