Ruby on Rails support, features and modernisation

Keep your existing Rails application useful. We work on older Ruby on Rails systems, fixing bugs, adding features and planning upgrades around the business that still depends on them.

Fix and extend an older Rails app

An older application may still do its job while needing changes to forms, reporting, background jobs or integrations. We review the code and dependencies, then scope the feature or fix and the checks needed around it.

We can work alongside your team or take over maintenance from a previous developer. The starting point is the current application and what you want improved.

AI-accelerated work with experienced review

AI coding agents help trace unfamiliar application code, investigate bugs and draft changes. That makes it practical to work through older codebases and their conventions.

We review the proposed implementation, check compatibility with the application’s versions and dependencies, and test the affected workflows. Technical decisions and release review stay with us.

Modernise in manageable stages

Modernisation can involve upgrading Ruby, Rails or gems, improving deployment, or replacing a specific integration. We assess dependencies and business requirements before agreeing the sequence.

Hosting and containerisation can be part of that work where useful. Any migration is scoped around the application, data and recovery requirements. See software takeover and staged modernisation.

Connect the app to other systems

We build imports, APIs and integrations so your Rails application can work with the rest of the business. Ongoing software development support can keep features and fixes moving after the first engagement.

Tell us what the application does, what needs attention and the Ruby or Rails version if you know it. A few sentences are enough to start.

Discuss the next improvement

Start with a bug, a feature or an assessment of the existing application. We agree the work and costs before implementation.
