Built AI-first. At a pace the market doesn't offer yet.
The cost of building custom software has dropped with AI. Most agencies haven't adjusted their prices or their ambition. Acynx has.
For teams that can't wait for the agency.
You've identified a specific technical need: automate a workflow that eats 10 hours a week, validate an MVP before the next board meeting, integrate two systems that don't talk to each other, unblock a stuck sprint. You don't want to wait three months for a quote or hire a senior full-time.
Acynx gives you a senior technical partner on subscription, who ships within the cycle. You submit a request, you receive the deliverable in 24-48h, you iterate. No endless quotes, no committee, no long-term commitment.

Why I founded Acynx.
When I saw what a single person could ship using AI properly — production-grade code, written with discipline, in a fraction of the usual time — I realized the market hadn't caught up.
Most agencies still bill their old models: five-person teams for what one can do, three-month quotes for what now ships in two weeks. Acynx exists to offer the new model to the clients who benefit from it.
On the experience side: I've built and operated mission-critical real-time bidding systems in enterprise — the kind of platform that processes millions of events per day and generates millions of dollars in annual value. That's rare expertise: few systems combine that throughput, data volume, and operational stakes. My profile spans the full arsenal — fullstack, machine learning, data, infrastructure — which means I can take a company from its first lines of code all the way to mature systems with data governance, observability, and compliance.
I'm essentially self-taught, and the arrival of AI has amplified that mechanism: I absorb an unfamiliar domain and produce production-grade code at a pace I couldn't have imagined two years ago. That curiosity — almost ungovernable — has always pushed me to learn every layer of a system. But I also know that a thriving company doesn't revolve around a single champion: I document, I share the trade-offs, I ship code someone else can pick up.
The name Acynx comes from the cheetah (acinonyx) — the fastest animal in the kingdom. That's the spirit of the service: velocity AI unlocks, precision discipline imposes.
Three non-negotiable principles.
Velocity
Short cycles, frequent deliverables. We'd rather ship small and often than wait for the perfect version.
Transparency
No black box. You see the code, the pipeline, the infra costs, and the technical trade-offs.
Quality
Tests, types, reviews, observability. Code you can maintain next month — or hand off to someone else.
