Boutique software studio · limitbreak.dev

Software, built better, faster, and cheaper than you'd expect.

We're Limit Break — deep, real-world engineering amplified by AI, so languages and frameworks stop being barriers. Heavy test automation keeps quality high and bugs fixed fast. The promise: we won't lower the bar. Or we'll teach your team to do it themselves.

What we make

Just about any software a growing business actually needs.

One studio across the whole lifecycle — from a first line of code to the quiet, ongoing care that keeps it running.

Web & product engineering

PHP/Laravel and WordPress in our comfort zone, plus Ruby/Rails, Vue/React, Tailwind — and patient hands for the legacy stacks nobody wants to touch.

APIs & SDKs

Full backends with queues and background work, OpenAPI specs, robust CLIs and SDKs in multiple languages, and docs that read well for humans and AI.

DevOps & automation

CI/CD with GitHub Actions and Dependabot set up securely, deployment automation, dev tooling in bash/Go, reproducible infra-as-code at sane scale, Cloudflare/CDN/DNS, and security hardening.

Testing & performance

Automated test suites handed over as a free artifact, real QA, plus caching and database optimization that make existing apps faster — no rewrite required.

CMS & migrations

WordPress installs, custom plugins and themes, host-to-host and CMS-to-CMS migrations, then ongoing maintenance and scaling as demand grows.

AI & Claude automation

Bring your own Claude subscription; we automate the workflows around it, stand up MCPs and connectors, and make AI approachable for teams told to "use AI" with no idea where to start.

Mobile, the straightforward kind

Clean CRUD apps for the "we need an app" companies. Not chasing games or exotic sensors — just a solid app that does the job.

Goodbye, SaaS

Replace overpriced mass-market subscriptions with custom tools you own — secure, lean, and built around how you actually work.

How we work

AI is the leverage. Judgment is the craft.

The same approach on every engagement — speed without the cut corners, and never a black box you can't maintain after we're gone.

  1. 01

    AI as leverage

    Decades of production experience set the direction; AI accelerates the keystrokes. That's how a small studio ships across more languages and stacks than its size suggests.

  2. 02

    Tested by default

    Automated tests aren't an upsell. They ship wired into CI, so changes land without regressions — and the whole suite is yours to keep, free of charge.

  3. 03

    Or we'll teach you

    Want it in-house instead? We'll coach your team to build and maintain it themselves. Independence is a perfectly good outcome — and we'll tell you straight, even if the answer is "not us."

The Vibe Check

From "made localhost this weekend, bro" to production-ready.

AI can ship a prototype fast — and leave you with slop nobody can safely deploy. Bring us the code. We review architecture, security, and dependencies, untangle the mess, and harden it into something you can actually run.

  • Code, architecture & security reviews with a written verdict
  • Dependency audits and a path off the risky bits
  • Cleanup of AI-generated slop into maintainable code

The studio

A small studio that punches well above its weight.

Limit Break is a boutique software studio built on decades of real production engineering — the kind earned shipping, breaking, fixing, and maintaining systems that real businesses depend on.

We pair that hard-won judgment with modern AI tooling so frameworks and languages stop being the deciding factor. The result is work that's better, faster, and cheaper than you'd expect — without ever lowering the bar.

We'll tell you straight, even when the honest answer is "this isn't us." Trust is the whole product; everything else is implementation.

Straight talk

Honest scoping. No upsell theatre.

Yours to keep

Tests & docs handed over as artifacts.

Secure by habit

Hardening & audits baked into the work.

No lock-in

We'll teach your team if you'd rather.
