A small engineering practice for complicated problems.

PrismaLink builds software that makes complicated things clear: dashboards and insight tools, web applications, custom software and AI agents, for teams whose work has outgrown their tools.

The name is the idea. A prism takes a tangle of light and splits it into something you can read. A process nobody fully understands, a spreadsheet that became a system, a tool everyone works around: we take it apart, find the few things that matter, and build software around those.

The practice is built on more than ten years of engineering data products: mostly analytics dashboards, reporting tools and data platforms for legal, compliance, healthcare, contact-centre and research organisations. Tables with millions of rows that still feel instant, charts that answer a question instead of decorating a page, interfaces people open because they help.

Our background is in engineering, but we were also trained in marketing and communication, strategy and project management, and it shapes how a project runs here. The business question comes first. The plan is written down before the code. Delivery happens in short cycles. And what we build is explained in plain words to the people who will use it.

We have built software for companies of every size, from publicly traded American software companies to Canadian startups, and we bring the same industry-standard practice to every project, whatever its size. Specs built with you as use cases and user stories. Agile delivery on a Kanban board you can see. Test-driven development. Continuous integration and delivery, so every change reaches production through a pipeline. Containers with Docker, so what runs in development runs the same in production. And AI tools with access to frontier models, or local models when privacy demands it. See how we build.

We keep the practice small on purpose. The person you talk to on the first call is the person who designs the software and writes the code, and everything we build is yours to keep.

What you can count on

The same on every project, whatever its size.

  • A written scope with a fixed price before any code is written
  • Something to try every week or two, not a reveal at the end
  • Plain-language documentation for the people who will use and maintain it
  • Everything handed over: the code, the data, the accounts and the keys
  • Support after launch for as long as the software is useful to you

We use AI. Carefully.

It makes us faster and it makes some mistakes easy. We take the speed and keep the responsibility.

  • AI tools, with a person accountable

    We use AI assistants to write, review and test code faster. Every line still goes through an engineer who understands it and answers for it. Nothing ships because a model said it was fine.

  • We know where it fails

    Confident wrong answers, leaked context, quiet bias. We build agents with a narrow scope, test them against real cases, log what they do, and keep a person in control of anything that matters.

  • Your data stays yours

    Client data never goes into a third-party model without your written agreement, and when it is sensitive we run local models so nothing leaves your infrastructure. Access is limited to who needs it, secrets are never in code, and encryption and backups are in place from the first deploy.
