What we do today
Engineering for the problems that slow businesses down.
Four focused services, each grounded in work we have actually delivered. We would rather do a few things properly than list everything we could attempt.
- 01
Mobile app development
React Native apps with clear screens, reliable API and Firebase integration, and a build you can publish to the Play Store.
React Native · JavaScript · Firebase · REST APIs
- 02
Website & web app development
Fast, accessible Next.js and React websites, from business sites to catalogues and dashboards, built to be found in search and easy to maintain.
Next.js · React · TypeScript · Tailwind CSS · Vercel
- 03
Spring Boot upgrades & modernization
Planned, tested upgrades of Spring Boot services and their dependencies, so older Java applications stay supported, secure, and deployable.
Java · Spring Boot · REST APIs · PostgreSQL
- 04
Backend, integrations & automation
APIs, third-party integrations, workflow automation, and test automation that remove manual steps and make systems easier to operate.

How we work
A process designed to remove surprises.
Clear scope, visible progress, and a clean handover. You always know what is being built, why, and what state it is in.
- 01
Discover
We talk through the business problem, the people affected, and what already exists: code, tools, constraints, and deadlines.
- 02
Define
We agree on scope, priorities, and what “done” means, in writing, before any build work starts.
- 03
Engineer
We build in small, reviewable increments and share progress you can try, not just status updates.
- 04
Validate
Functionality, edge cases, performance, and accessibility are checked against what was agreed.
- 05
Deliver
We deploy, document, and hand over code, credentials, and notes so your team is never locked out.
- 06
Evolve
Where agreed, we continue with improvements, upgrades, and fixes as your needs change.
Engineering standards
Quality you can inspect.
Principles we apply on every engagement. They are habits, not certifications, and we will tell you plainly where a project falls short of them.
- Maintainable over clever
- Clear structure and naming, so the next developer, ours or yours, can understand and change the code.
- Secure by habit
- Secrets stay out of source code, inputs are validated, and dependencies are kept current.
- Tested where it matters
- Automated checks guard critical behaviour; we tell you plainly what is and is not covered.
- Fast and accessible
- Performance and accessibility are designed in from the start, not patched in before launch.
- Transparent decisions
- Technical trade-offs are explained in plain language, so you can make informed choices.
- Documented handover
- Every engagement ends with notes on how things work, how to run them, and what to watch.
Why “i.include”
What we search for is often already within reach.
An old Indian story tells of the kasturi mrug, the musk deer, who wanders the forest searching for a fragrance without realising it comes from within itself.
Our mark, a pair of antlers around an “i”, is a reminder of it. Good work rarely starts with something borrowed from elsewhere. It starts with curiosity, capability, and the willingness to build. We apply that to your product, and to ourselves: we start with software today, and keep learning so we can include more tomorrow.
Questions
Before you get in touch.
What services does i.include currently provide?
Software engineering: mobile app development with React Native, websites and web apps with Next.js and React, backend APIs and integrations, workflow and test automation, and Spring Boot upgrades. Our wider ambitions do not change that this is what we deliver today.
Do you work with existing codebases?
Yes. A lot of valuable work is improving, upgrading, or extending software that already exists. We start by reviewing the code and setup, then propose changes that fit it.
How do you estimate scope and cost?
After an initial conversation and, where relevant, a review of existing code. We break the work into defined parts and agree on scope in writing before starting. We do not publish fixed prices because every project differs.
Can you integrate third-party APIs?
Yes, where the service provides documented API access. We review limits, costs, and credentials with you first, and keep secrets out of source code.
Do you provide support after delivery?
Ongoing improvements, upgrades, and fixes can be agreed as a follow-up engagement. Every delivery includes handover documentation either way.
How do we start a conversation?
Send a short description of what you need using the contact form or by email. Include your current stack and timeline if you know them.
