Chess Rocket

Six engineers working as the product’s engineering team for five months

We shipped every feature across web, iOS/Android, admin and backend at once, in weekly rounds driven by the client’s feedback, and moved releases to gated dev, pre-prod and production environments on Azure.

“Took Chess Rocket from idea to live product, building puzzles, real-time play and community features that just work. Highly recommended.”

  • No separate environments; changes went straight to users

After

  • Weekly feature rounds shipped across web, mobile, admin and backend
  • Store subscriptions fixed end to end
  • Gated dev → pre-prod → production releases, with an onboarding handover

AI engineers who grew into the platform team

What started as a build became a retainer: we moved a browser extension’s model calls behind a secure per-team backend, shipped new GPT-builder features, and added server-side roles and error monitoring.

“Really happy with LadyLight. It looks great, works smoothly and you can tell a lot of care went into it. Great job!”
