I take care of Rails applications that need to last.
Maybe it was built by an agency that has moved on. Maybe a developer left and took the only mental model of the infrastructure with them. Maybe it still serves your customers perfectly well, but upgrades feel risky, hosting bills are opaque, and nobody can give you a straight answer about what happens if the database server fails next Tuesday.
You don’t need another agency. You need someone who understands your system.
I am an independent consultant for existing Rails applications — for the second opinions, the quiet maintenance, and the long-term stability that keeps software useful over years rather than months.
I am not an agency. There is no account manager between us, and no junior on a timesheet. You talk to me, and I do the work. I am approachable and embedded, not outsourced.
Most engagements begin the same way. We have a conversation about what is actually going on. Then I spend two or three weeks reading your code, examining your infrastructure, and writing you a report. That report is the first concrete thing you receive — it documents what you have, where the risks are, and what the sensible next steps look like.
At that point, you decide. Many clients go forward with the implementation. Some take the report to their own team and act on it themselves. Either outcome is a good outcome, because the point of the report is clarity, not a contract.
