Late 1990s
Before the world had a word for it
Software lived on servers you could touch. The idea that applications could be delivered as a service was still a bet, not a business model. A small number of people believed it would pay off. We did too: aspol (application service provider on-line). Software would become a service. It did.
2000s to 2020s
The tool age
SaaS became the dominant model. Tools proliferated. Thousands of them. Businesses assembled vast toolchains and hired armies to operate them. But tools don't solve problems. People do. More tools. More headcount. New problems.
Now
The inversion
The era of selling tools is ending. We start where it matters: with your strategy, your objectives, the detail that determines how something actually works. Then we design, build, and support the solution. Software is the method. The outcome is the product.
