About

A studio that runs its own software

Alwan Technologies is a founder-led software studio in London, registered in England & Wales. We build production web and mobile applications for clients, and we build and operate our own products alongside that work.

Who you'd be working with

The studio

Most studios show you a portfolio of things they handed over. Ours is a portfolio of things we still run — seven live products with two more launching, and the deployments, the support and the bills that come with them. That changes the advice you get: we have already paid for the shortcuts we tell you not to take.

There is no account layer. The people who scope the work write the code, so nothing is lost in translation between a sales conversation and a sprint. That is a deliberate constraint on how much we take on at once, and the reason we would rather turn a project down than staff it badly.

What we run

The portfolio is not things we handed over. These are products we still deploy, support and pay the bills for.

Three things that don't change

How we work

01

Ownership, end to end

Design, build, ship, iterate — owned at a senior level throughout. Nothing gets lost in hand-offs, because there aren't any.

02

Owners, not vendors

We build and run our own products, so we approach client work the way owners do: pragmatic scope, honest trade-offs, and code we're prepared to live with.

03

Small by design

A small studio means direct communication and fast cycles. You talk to the people writing the code, and decisions get made quickly.
