Crucible

Product and development

Build

We design, build and run digital products the way we run our own: static-first, source-checked and verified automatically on every change.

What you get

Calculators and tools

Accurate, tested calculators and interactive tools, built from primary sources.

Content platforms at scale

Sites with hundreds or thousands of pages that stay consistent and correct.

Web apps

Offline-first apps and customer portals that respect privacy.

AI-assisted engineering

We set up the same agent-plus-verification workflow we use, for your team.

AI-ready products

MCP servers and APIs that let AI assistants call your tools and data directly, as Calculate.co.nz already does.

Applied AI in production

Assistants that answer questions from governed data in seconds, with the controls a finance or risk team will sign off.

Proof. CalculatorHub.com went from first commit to 50,000+ calculator pages in five months. Jobtracker.co.nz went from first commit to three live products in under three months. See the track record →

How it works

01

Fractional

A set number of days a week or month, as part of your team, for as long as it is useful.

02

Fixed-scope project

A defined outcome, a fixed scope and a clear finish, such as a new tool, a site rebuild or a measurement plan.

03

Venture partnership

We build and run a product alongside a founder or domain expert, for equity or a reduced fee, on the same stack as our own products.

A few lines is plenty: what you are building or measuring, where it is stuck, and the kind of help you have in mind.
