2 WEEKS
Prototype Sprint
$4,800
A real, clickable, deployed prototype of your idea on a production-grade design system. Not a Figma mock: real code you keep.
What you keep
All code and IP, yours from day one.
A solo AI software studio
You lead with vision.
We build the software.
Strevian builds software for founders and creators with an idea that matters to them. A real, deployed prototype in two weeks. A full product in eight to twelve. Humans lead every decision, AI amplifies the work, and a person reviews every merge before anything ships.
Forge, our platform, is in internal use today. Join the waitlist
Humans lead. AI amplifies.
Every product we build runs on one rule: people make the decisions, machines do the work, and everything is logged.

Forge / 6 phases / 14 flows / 62 modules
From idea to ship, and back again.
Forge, the platform we build with, runs every product through six phases. Four move forward. Two run for as long as the product is live, and feed what they learn back into the next idea.
- Phase 01 / Define
Define
Decide what matters: who it is for, why it should exist, and what cascades from the organization down to the feature.
- Portfolio6 modules
- Vision4 modules
- Brand3 modules
Portfolio Canvas
Visualizes the tree of organizations, teams, products, and features.
- Phase 02 / Create
Create
Design it properly: tokens, components, pages, the backend schema, and a plan with the decisions written down.
- Design3 modules
- Service7 modules
- Playbook4 modules
Token Engine
Three-tier tokens (style, brand, theme) with brand forking and change preview.
- Phase 03 / Build
Build
Agents generate, test, and prove. A person reviews every merge.
- Dev8 modules
- Deploy4 modules
Review Station
Agent self-review, then human review of proofs and plan match.
- Phase 04 / Grow
Grow
Content, campaigns, and search, planned from the same source of truth.
- Growth3 modules
Campaign Planner
Email sequences, drip flows, promotions, ad creative.
- Phase 05 / Learn
Learn
Usage, patterns, and feedback, turned into hypotheses you can test.
- Insights5 modules
- Feedback2 modules
Hypothesis Lab
Structured hypotheses, A/B tests behind flags, results tracking.
- Phase 06 / Operate
Operate
Incidents, policies, and security, watched continuously once anything is live.
- Ops5 modules
- Legal4 modules
- Security4 modules
Incident Commander
Incident workflow, on-call rotation, postmortems.
Visibility. No silent surprises.
You see the blast radius before you commit.
Before Forge moves a node, changes a schema, deletes anything, or touches a permission, it shows exactly what will happen. Then it asks. Nothing runs outside that pipeline, and nothing changes without a person saying yes.

Sample data. Nothing you do here is saved.
A person reads the diff.
Agents write the code and the tests, record a visual proof, and review their own work first. Then a human reads it and decides. That review is the final gate on every merge, in Forge and in every project we build.

The wall
Ten stages on every commit. Nothing merges past them.
Every stage runs on every commit, in order. CI blocks any merge that fails one. Then, and only then, a person reviews it.
Every file formatted the same way, or the commit stops here.
format:check
The tenet rules as lint: compose on primitives, preview before commit.
lint
TypeScript at its strictest. No implicit anything.
typecheck
Packages import only what the layering allows. Cycles are failures.
fitness
The wall proves its own checks still catch a planted violation.
proof
The suite runs. Every test is meaningful or it is deleted.
test
A ratchet that only tightens. Coverage never goes down.
coverage
Real browser flows, recorded as proofs a human can watch.
test:e2e
Copied code is flagged. One mechanism, many uses.
duplication
Secrets, known vulnerabilities, and license risks. Blocked, not warned.
security
HUMAN REVIEW. THE FINAL GATE, NOT A STAGE.
Past the tenth stage, a person reads the change. Nothing merges on green alone.

Engineering standard

Strevian works to a locked engineering standard. Every project inherits it through a thin profile, and machines check it before a person ever reads the code.

I'm Wesley Deitch. Strevian is my studio, and I do the work. I built Forge, the platform we build with, and the standard it runs on: twenty rules, eighty-two checks, six release gates, and a wall every commit has to pass.
Agents write a lot of the code. They do not decide what gets built, and they do not merge anything. I read every diff.
I take one product at a time, because that is the only way I know to do this properly.

Forge
Forge builds Strevian today. It is not public yet.
Forge is the AI-powered development platform we build our own products with: 6 phases, 14 flows, 62 modules, from the first idea to the running product and back.
It is in internal use now. It goes public when it is mature, and not before.
