Web applications
Fast, resilient web products—from customer-facing SaaS to internal tooling. Clean architecture, sensible tech, and interfaces people actually enjoy using.
Independent software studio
Software, built
properly—and shipped fast.
Taraki is a small, deliberately selective studio led by an engineer with 11+ years across both enterprise and startups. We take on a handful of teams at a time and own the whole lifecycle—concept, design, build, ship, and run—turning production-grade web, mobile, and cloud products into real software in users’ hands, fast.

What we do
A studio that ships—not just advises.
We are hands-on builders. Every engagement ends in working software running in production, owned cleanly by your team—and we lean on modern AI tooling to get there faster, without cutting corners on quality.
Mobile apps
Native-quality mobile experiences that feel at home on the device and stay maintainable as they grow.
Cloud & serverless
Production infrastructure on AWS done right—serverless-first, cost-aware, secure, and built to scale without a platform team babysitting it.
Product engineering
Zero-to-one product work: turning a rough idea into a launched, revenue-ready product—scoped tightly and delivered end to end.
Integrations
Your software rarely lives alone. We've built hundreds of integrations—SMS, CMS, CRM, payments, and bespoke proprietary systems—so Taraki connects cleanly to whatever your business already runs on.
Built to scale
World-class, production-grade architecture designed for real load—systems that stay fast and dependable from your first users to millions.
AI-driven development
We use modern AI tooling to design and build faster—and we bring AI into your product, from intelligent automation to LLM-powered features, where it creates real value rather than novelty.
DevOps & delivery
CI/CD, infrastructure-as-code, and automated deployments with real observability—release pipelines that are fast, repeatable, and dependable, so shipping is routine instead of risky.
Lean by design
World-class doesn't have to be expensive to run. We build serverless-first—architecture that scales to zero when idle and to millions under load—so you get production-grade quality without over-provisioned infrastructure or a runaway cloud bill. Great engineering and a lean operating cost aren't a trade-off; they're the point.
How we work
Small team. Short path. Real software.
Speed and quality aren't a trade-off when the team is senior and the scope is honest—and because we build serverless-first, what we ship stays lean to run. Our process is built to remove the things that usually slow projects down, and the costs that quietly pile up after launch.
-
01
Understand, then commit
We start by getting the problem right—users, constraints, and what "done" actually means. If we take it on, we're all in.
-
02
Ship early, ship often
You see working software in weeks, not quarters. Automated CI/CD and infrastructure-as-code keep releases fast, repeatable, and low-drama, so progress is always real and visible.
-
03
Build it to last
Tested, documented, and architected so it holds up in production—and so your team can own it confidently after we hand it over.
Who we work with
We're picky—on purpose.
We only work on software that matters.
We take on only a few projects at a time—products with real impact, not throwaway work. That focus is the whole point: it's how we deliver work we're proud of, quickly, without spreading a small team thin. If we're not the right fit, we'll tell you plainly.
Tell us about your projectWe're a great fit when
- You need a real product shipped, not a deck.
- Quality and craft actually matter to you.
- You value a senior team that moves fast and communicates directly.
- You want clean, maintainable software you fully own.
Probably not a fit when
- The goal is the cheapest possible bid.
- You need a large body-shop team of dozens.
- Scope and outcomes are intentionally left vague.
Experience
A track record of shipped products.
Taraki is led by Theodoro Pelingan Jr.—a full-stack engineer who has spent 11+ years shipping software across both enterprise and startup environments, and for the past 6+ years has worked as a technical lead—owning architecture, steering delivery, and mentoring engineers. Based in the Philippines and working mostly with clients in Australia, we deliver on APAC-friendly hours to a global standard. Our domain experience runs deep—fintech, insurtech, and automotive among others—and we work end to end, from concept and design through build, ship, and run, so nothing falls between the cracks. Beyond client work, we design, build, and operate our own live SaaS products across fintech, developer tools, productivity, and consumer software. We ship what we sell.
