Ecommerce stores built and maintained
Electronics retailer, Chicago, trading for more than 20 years
Online store for a bricks-and-mortar retailer carrying more than 50,000 items. Catalog and order management, shipping and payment gateway integration, a custom theme, one-page checkout and order tracking, followed by an annual contract for support, maintenance and customisation. The store has since moved to Shopify.
London gunmaker founded in 1814
Customisation of the Magento storefront for a heritage luxury brand: AJAX layered navigation, a redesigned product page and a cleaner path from range to item. The store has since moved to Shopify.
Professional audio and video retailer
Magento store with bulk import scripts for a large, frequently changing catalog, and product feeds into Google Shopping, eBay and Amazon so one catalog sold in four places. The store is still trading on the same domain.
Apple-device repair business, California, founded 2007
Search overhaul of an established repair business: URL structure rewritten with redirects, on-page work across service pages, and user-interface changes to the booking and ordering flow.
Reusable water-bottle brand
Store development for a consumer product company selling direct, with the catalog, checkout and content set up for a small team to run without a developer. The client reviewed the work publicly in 2020.
Engineering behind other firms
Two consultancies, more than ten years each
A UK consultancy and a US consultancy have had our engineers behind their client work for over a decade, under their names and on their tools. Both started with Magento sites and small tasks; one later moved its clients to WordPress and WooCommerce, the other to Laravel, Node and React, and our team moved with them. Their clients stay theirs.
How white-label works hereA product of our own
Retail point-of-sale platform
A cloud point-of-sale system for retailers with billing, inventory and an offline mode for when the connection drops, built and run by our own team and in daily use by paying customers. Running a product teaches a discipline that service work alone does not: it has to work every day, for people who did not hire you.
Work on our own sites
RiantSoft.com
Rebuilt on the principles we sell. We are measuring our own site the same way we measure a client's: twenty buyer questions across ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Google AI. The before-and-after is published here as it comes in.
How the service worksScan of 30 agency homepages
An aggregate study we ran before this rebuild: most failed WCAG 2.1 AA, and the large majority of failures were contrast, duplicate IDs and markup hygiene that ordinary front-end work fixes. It shaped how this site was built.
The accessibility auditWhy no names or logos. Much of this work was delivered under other firms' names, and the rest under agreements that do not include publicity. We describe the work and keep the clients out of it. What we can show you instead is how a job runs here: the written scope, the staging site and the daily log, from the first free step.
