Terlica Labs — production, on the clock
Production in 10 days. The code is yours.
We build the internal platforms your company runs on — tested, migrated, deployed — with AI as leverage and a senior review on everything. Fixed price. No retainers. No lock-in.
10 days to first deploy · 100% code handover · 0 lock-in
The 10-day build
Ten days. Every step visible.
Nothing here is a status meeting. Each day ends with something you can open.
-
D01
Kickoff
Scope fixed in writing. Price and date agreed before anyone opens an editor.
-
D02
Foundations
Repository, pipeline, staging — and a first deploy, live, on day two.
-
D03
Schema & auth
The data model, and who is allowed to see what. Both decided before features.
-
D04
Core flows
The two or three screens the business actually runs on, end to end.
-
D05
Integrations
The systems you already pay for, talking to the new one.
-
D06
Test suite
The business rules, written as tests. The tests are the contract.
-
D07
Migrations
Your real data moves in. Reversible, in both directions.
-
D08
Hardening
Roles, audit trail, rate limits, and the error paths nobody demos.
-
D09
Docs & handover prep
How it runs, how to deploy it, how to fix it at two in the morning.
-
D10
Handover
Repository, pipeline and documentation. No retainer, no lock-in.
Tested
Change it without fear.
Every build ships with a test suite, reversible migrations and a rollback path.
Code you can change is an asset; code you're afraid to touch is a liability.
$ pnpm test
✓ 49 checks — validation (NIF, IBAN, CP)
✓ 21 tests — audit hash chain
✓ 8/8 E2E — full onboarding flow
build: clean · typecheck: clean · deploy: green
Method
AI as leverage, not as excuse.
AI writes a lot of the code. It does not choose the architecture and it does not sign off the tests.
- Senior review on everything
- Architecture by humans, always
- Tests are the contract
Work
Shipped, not hypothetical.
Three systems, all running. The names stay out of it — the shape of the problem is the part worth showing.
01
Multi-tenant support platform
Every WhatsApp and Shopify conversation merged into a single queue. Built and shipped inside one 10-day cycle.

Competitive intelligence
A browser extension that watches competitor storefronts live, so nobody has to check by hand.

Client onboarding
Paper intake replaced by a seven-step digital flow, signed end to end.
Read the case →The process was seamless from start to finish. The result exceeded our expectations — in two weeks, not two months.

Day 10
It's yours.
No retainer. No lock-in. On day 10 you walk away with the repository, the pipeline and the documentation. If you never call again, everything still runs — and it's still yours.
Questions
Before you start a build.
What does it cost?
A fixed price, agreed before day 1. No hourly billing, no surprises.
What if ten days isn't enough?
Scope is fixed before day 1 specifically so ten days is enough. If the problem is bigger than that, we say so before we start — not on day 8.
Who actually writes the code?
AI writes a lot of it. It does not choose the architecture and it does not sign off the tests — that's still a senior review, every time.
What do we get on day 10?
The repository, the pipeline and the documentation. No retainer, no lock-in — if you never call again, everything still runs.
Where does the work happen?
Lisbon. One engineer, one client, one problem at a time.
