Talk
A free 30-minute call. You describe the problem. We ask the questions that actually matter. No pitch, no slides.
≈ 30 MINFigure 1.0 — Studio Overview
Custom software,
drawn to spec.
Symoxy is a small software practice specializing in media asset workflows, automation, and custom tooling. We treat every engagement like a blueprint — measured, annotated, and engineered to fit.
Figure 2.0 · Engagement Pipeline
Three stages, zero guesswork.
Plan
A written scope: what we'll build, what it costs, how long it takes. Fixed price when it makes sense, honest ranges when it doesn't.
3–5 DAYSBuild
Working code in weekly increments. Real demos, not progress reports. You always own everything: code, docs, infrastructure.
2–8 WEEKSFigure 3.0 · Capabilities
What we actually build.
A · CUSTOM DEV
Custom Development
Full-stack apps and internal tools built around how your business actually runs — not a product manager's guess at it.
- React · Next.js · Node
- Postgres · Supabase
- Docker · CI/CD
B · AUTOMATION
MAM & Workflow Automation
Iconik integrations, metadata migrations, ingest pipelines, and scheduled jobs that retire the copy-paste work.
- Iconik API · n8n
- Webhook handlers
- FFmpeg pipelines
C · ADVISORY
Technical Advisory
Architecture reviews, vendor evaluations, and honest second opinions on whether you should even build the thing.
- Build vs. buy calls
- Vendor shortlists
- Code audits
Figure 4.0 · How We Think
Operating principles.
PRINCIPLE · 01
Build vs. buy, honestly.
If an off-the-shelf tool fits, we'll say so — and help you pick it. Custom software is a commitment, not a default.
PRINCIPLE · 02
Small scopes, shipped often.
Two-week increments beat two-month milestones. We'd rather ship something small that works than plan something big that doesn't.
PRINCIPLE · 03
No lock-in, ever.
You own the code, the credentials, the docs, and the right to hire anyone else to maintain it. We build for handoff from day one.
PRINCIPLE · 04
Boring tech, on purpose.
We reach for tools that will still be maintained in five years. The exciting stack is usually the expensive stack.
Figure 5.0 · Who You'll Be Working With
One person. No handoffs.
// PRINCIPAL ENGINEER
Hi, I'm Carlos.
I started Symoxy because most small businesses don't need an agency — they need one engineer who actually understands the problem, ships working code, and leaves things better than they found them. I write every line myself. You always talk to the person building it.

What you actually get.
// EXPLODED VIEW · DELIVERABLE ASSEMBLYSCALE 1:1 · ALL PARTS INCLUDED
1
Source Code
Every line, in a git repo you own. Clean history, readable commits, no obfuscation.
2
Documentation
A real README. API docs where they matter. Runbooks for anything that isn't obvious.
3
Live Deployment
Running, not just running-on-my-laptop. CI/CD pipeline set up so deploys are a push, not a project.
4
Training Walkthrough
A recorded session walking your team through the code and operations. No “call me if anything breaks.”
5
The Keys
All credentials, IP, repo access, and hosting accounts — transferred to you. Zero lock-in by design.
Bring the problem.
We'll draw the plan.
The first conversation is always free, always honest, and never a sales pitch.
