Software, Shipped By The Person Building It
TechToTech is a founder-led indie studio in Nairobi, Kenya. We build AI tools, SaaS platforms, and full-stack apps end to end — from architecture to deployment — and work with clients worldwide.
What We Do
A small, focused set of services — all delivered hands-on by the founder.
Custom Apps & SaaS
Full-stack builds in Python, FastAPI, Flutter, and Supabase — from first prototype to production deployment.
AI Tools & Agents
Fine-tuning LLMs (LoRA/PEFT), building AI agents, and wiring OpenAI/Anthropic APIs into real products.
Deployment & DevOps
Dockerized services, CI/CD, Supabase backends, and cloud deploys that don't fall over at 3am.
Technical Consulting
Architecture reviews, AI strategy, and pragmatic advice from someone who ships code every day.

- Founder-led — you work directly with the developer
- Full-stack delivery, from architecture to deployment
- Real shipped products as proof of capability, not slide decks
- Honest scoping and pricing, no corporate padding
- Remote-first — timezone-friendly for clients worldwide

What We Build — and Who We Build It For
Real projects for real teams. Here's the kind of work we take on and the shape of what you get.
An MVP that actually ships
From idea to deployed product — auth, payments, admin, the works. Built to be handed off or extended cleanly later.
- Working web or mobile app in weeks, not quarters
- Clean codebase you or another dev can pick up
- Fixed-scope pricing agreed before we start
An extra pair of senior hands
Drop-in help on tricky backend work, AI integrations, infra cleanup, or shipping features your team hasn't gotten to.
- Ship stuck features without expanding headcount
- Cleaner infra: Docker, CI/CD, Supabase, cloud deploys
- Code reviewed and documented, not thrown over the wall
AI-assisted security tooling
Custom internal tools built on top of fine-tuned LLMs and agent workflows — see CyberSentinel below for a working example.
- Agentic workflows for recon, triage, and reporting
- Fine-tuned LLMs that speak your team's playbook
- Everything runs where you tell it to — cloud or on-prem
LLMs, wired into your product
Chatbots, summarizers, categorizers, agents — built on OpenAI, Anthropic, or fine-tuned open models, with sensible guardrails.
- AI features that actually ship to production
- Custom fine-tunes (LoRA/PEFT) on your own data
- Cost and latency planned in from day one
Tooling for teaching and research
Coming from a computer-science and quant-research background — happy to build custom tools for coursework, labs, or research workflows.
- Custom apps for classroom or lab use
- Data pipelines and dashboards you actually understand
- Nonprofit / academic pricing when it makes sense
Quant tooling and market apps
Backed by hands-on quant research on WorldQuant BRAIN — comfortable building signal pipelines, backtests, and trading dashboards.
- Signal generation and backtesting infrastructure
- Web dashboards for strategies, PnL, and monitoring
- Sensible risk and logging baked in
Don't see your situation? That's usually a good sign — every team is different.
Frequently Asked Questions
The stuff most people want to know before reaching out.
How much does it cost?+
It depends on scope. Most engagements are either fixed-price for a well-defined project (MVP builds, AI integrations, migrations) or hourly for open-ended work and consulting. Send the details via chat or the quote form and you'll get a real number back — no sales calls, no back-and-forth.
How long do projects usually take?+
Small integrations or fixes: days. MVP builds: 2–6 weeks. Full-stack products with AI: 4–12 weeks. You get a written timeline before any work starts, and honest updates if something's tracking off.
What tech stack do you work with?+
Day-to-day: Python, FastAPI, Flutter, Supabase (Postgres + auth + storage), Docker. AI: OpenAI, Anthropic, and fine-tuning open-source LLMs with LoRA/PEFT. Deployment: any major cloud plus lightweight VPS setups. If you're already on something else, ask — the answer is usually yes.
How does the chat / WhatsApp inquiry actually work?+
Click the chat bubble (bottom-right) and the AI assistant answers immediately using real info about the studio, services, and process. If a human needs to weigh in — custom quote, sensitive question — it forwards a summary plus your contact info by email. WhatsApp (+254 113 907 065) reaches Dorn directly, usually with a reply within a few hours.
Do you work with clients outside Kenya?+
Yes — TechToTech is remote-first. Most clients are outside Kenya and everything is delivered over Git, Slack/WhatsApp, and video calls. Timezones are handled by shifting working hours where needed.
What if I just need a one-off question answered?+
Open the chat and ask. The AI handles general questions for free, and if it needs a person, Dorn gets back to you. No commitment, no pressure to buy.
