Discuss your next software project.

We usually help when a business needs software that is more specific than an off-the-shelf product can provide. That might be an internal tool, a customer portal, an integration, an AI feature, or an existing system that needs to be reviewed or improved. If the scope, risks or technical options are still unclear, we can help you shape the project.

We agree the important details before work begins, including what is included, what is not included, how the work will be priced, and what would count as a change. For clearly defined work, this can usually be priced against a written scope. For inherited systems, stalled projects or work with more uncertainty, we may need to review the current work first before giving a responsible recommendation.

We treat AI as part of the wider system, not as a shortcut around proper product design. Before recommending an AI feature, we look at the workflow it sits inside, the data it depends on, how users will interact with it, and what could go wrong if the output is unreliable. If AI is useful, we will say where it fits. If AI is not the right answer, we will recommend the simpler route.

Yes. We can sign an NDA before reviewing sensitive material. If your organisation already works through supplier frameworks, master service agreements or formal procurement processes, we can factor that in from the start.

For agreed release work, we include 30 days of post-launch support so defects, practical questions and early usage issues can be handled properly once the system is live. After that, support can continue through a Campaign engagement or be arranged as separate follow-on work. We also provide documentation covering what has been built, how it works and the key decisions behind it.

Yes. We can review existing software, unfinished builds or inherited codebases and give you a clear view of what is working, what is fragile and what needs attention. From there, we help you decide whether the right next step is to stabilise the system, complete the work, improve key areas or replace it. The aim is to avoid further spend until there is a responsible plan for what should happen next.

We run projects through a structured agile delivery process, with regular review points, shared documentation and clear communication around scope, decisions and progress. Most work is delivered remotely, which allows the right people to stay involved without adding unnecessary disruption. Gnomic is based in Winchester, UK, and works with clients across the UK.

A short summary is enough. Tell us what you are trying to achieve, what already exists, what is causing difficulty, and what you think needs to happen next. You do not need to have all the answers before contacting us. Part of our role is to help separate what is already clear from what still needs to be worked through.

It depends on the engagement. Forge runs from 2 weeks (Pilot) to 8 weeks (Extended). Forge: Repair is usually 4 to 8 weeks, depending on the state of the existing system. Campaign is ongoing, with a 3 or 6 month minimum to settle into a steady delivery rhythm.

Not at all. Most of our clients are operators, founders, and heads of department, not engineers. We translate technical decisions into trade-offs you can act on, and document everything so you're never reliant on one person to understand your own system.

Yes, before sharing any sensitive material. We can also work under your existing master service agreements or supplier frameworks if your organisation has them.

Scope often evolves. Any change is reviewed, costed, and agreed in writing before work begins. On Campaign engagements, you can re-prioritise within your allocation at any time without triggering a change order.

We're a UK studio based in Winchester, working with clients across the UK. Most engagements run remotely with regular video sessions, and we travel for kick-off, key reviews, or wherever physical presence genuinely helps the work.

Yes, we start with a deep-dive analysis of the codebase, document it's current state, and give you your honest options: finish what's there, rebuild parts of it, or retire the system entirely.

Every engagement starts with a free Pathfinder report. If you proceed, scope and price are agreed in writing on a Discovery Call. Forge is fixed-price; Campaign is a monthly retainer. Any scope change is documented and agreed before it's billed — no surprise charges.
