Software that ships. Not slideware.

I build MVPs, workflow automations, and UI systems for founders who need working software — one person, from scope through deployment.

Direct, no hand-offs
About

Hi, I'm Jesse.

I'm an independent software developer based in Ontario, Canada. I founded Envoy Direct as a one-person studio for founders and small teams who need software shipped fast — without the overhead, account managers, or hand-offs of an agency.

I take on MVPs, workflow automations, and UI builds. Scoped timelines, preview links early, and a direct line to the person actually writing the code.

  • You work directly with me — design, engineering, and deployment.
  • Scoped timelines and preview links shared early, every week.
  • Clear communication throughout. No agency hand-offs, ever.
  • Limited client roster, so every project gets real attention.
