Gold Plan

We provide long-term support plans including monitoring, updates, bug fixes, and critical response to ensure your software remains reliable and secure.

Yes, clients generally retain full ownership of the software and intellectual property we develop for them. We believe your ideas and products are yours to own and control.

The short answer is that Shape sits in a specific sweet spot. We're a small, senior team that works like a product partner rather than a service provider. We're not the right fit for everyone, and we'd rather be honest about that upfront than waste your time. But if you're a founder or business owner who needs to move quickly, make smart technical decisions, and end up with something that actually works in production, that's exactly where we operate.

Threat modelling begins with understanding your system and the risks it faces. While it starts before any code is written, it’s revisited throughout development to address emerging risks. It involves the development team planning how data will flow through the system. They identify potentially sensitive data, such as personal or financial information, and define trust boundaries – points where data crosses between components or users with different levels of trust. Anything crossing a trust boundary is treated as potentially untrusted, requiring security controls like authentication, encryption, and input validation.
