Common questions from Chicago clients
Can you start from an existing codebase?
Yes — we run a code audit first, then propose a stabilisation and roadmap plan.
How do you handle data security?
Least-privilege IAM, encrypted at rest and in transit, with auditable change history.
Do you provide ongoing support?
Most clients stay on a retainer for feature work, monitoring and uplift.
