Run & Improve
Hosting, security, backups, and small changes. The boring parts, done properly.
Who this is for
- Businesses that want software run for them, not a server to babysit
- Teams whose last app died because nobody patched or backed it up
- Anyone who wants small improvements shipped monthly without a procurement cycle
- Firms with compliance obligations that need updates and backups evidenced
The problem this solves
Custom software does not fail on launch day. It fails eighteen months later when nobody has patched it.
Most studios hand over a repository and disappear.
Run & Improve keeps your product hosted, monitored, patched, backed up, and quietly improving.
You get one monthly invoice and zero infrastructure decisions.
What you get
- Hosting on infrastructure Evoloop manages, or in your cloud if you prefer
- Security patching, dependency updates, and TLS renewal
- Automated backups with periodic restore tests
- Uptime monitoring with a real person responding
- A monthly allowance of small changes and improvements
Expected outcome
Your product stays fast, secure, and current for years, with small improvements landing continuously instead of piling into a rewrite.
Common questions
Mostly hosting footprint and the size of the change allowance. A small internal tool sits near £300. Products with heavier infrastructure or larger allowances cost more, quoted per product.
Sometimes. It starts with a paid review of the codebase and infrastructure. If it can be run responsibly, you get a quote; if not, you get an honest explanation of why.
Copy updates, form tweaks, report changes, minor features that fit the monthly allowance. Larger work is scoped and quoted as a mini build, at the same fixed-price principle.
30 days notice. You already own the code, and handover of hosting, data, and documentation is included in the retainer, not charged as an exit fee.
