IT & AI engineering for US businesses · 16 practices
Oranian · IT & AI engineering partner

Build it right. Run it well. Keep it yours.

We're good atremoving hours from a process you can name, shipping software your team can maintain, keeping the platform up at 3 a.m., proving your security posture to an auditor, turning three systems into one number.

Sixteen engineering practices across intelligence, build, run, protect and advise — delivered to US businesses by one accountable team.

Most clients start with one and grow into several. Because it's the same accountable team throughout, nothing gets lost in a handoff between vendors.

What we build

The shape of a modern system.

Most of what we deliver resolves to this. Tiers vary in size and one may be missing entirely — but the boundaries, and who owns what, stay the same.

  • Every tier is yours — accounts, code and documentation.
  • Boundaries are enforced, not assumed.
  • The band underneath is the part vendors skip.
How each tier is built
Why Oranian

A partner, not a vendor.

Anyone can say it. These are the four commitments that make it more than a slogan.

01

Senior people on your project

The engineers in the pitch are the engineers who build it. No handoff to a junior team after the contract is signed.

02

Fixed-fee discovery

Start with a two-week paid discovery and a written plan. If it isn't the right fit, you keep the plan and walk away.

03

You own everything

Source code, cloud accounts, domains and documentation are in your name from day one. No hostage infrastructure.

04

US hours, overnight progress

A client lead on US Eastern time, and an engineering team that keeps work moving overnight. One accountable lead across both.

Engagement models

Four ways to work together.

Every engagement starts with the same two-week discovery. What follows is shaped by what you need.

Find your fit

6–26 weeks

Fixed-scope project

Best for: A defined outcome — a new app, a platform rebuild, a migration.

Billing: Fixed fee per phase, invoiced at agreed milestones.

How it works
6 months+

Dedicated team

Best for: An ongoing roadmap that needs more capacity than you can hire.

Billing: Monthly, based on team size and seniority. Adjust the team month to month.

How it works
Ongoing

Managed services

Best for: Platforms, devices and people that need to keep running.

Billing: Fixed monthly retainer, sized to scope and response times. Reviewed every quarter.

How it works
2 weeks – ongoing

Fractional CTO & advisory

Best for: Companies without a senior technology leader — or needing a second opinion.

Billing: Monthly retainer for a set number of days, or a fixed-fee technology audit.

How it works
Delivery model

Discover, design, build, run.

The same sequence whether the project is a mobile app or a cloud migration. Select a phase to see what it produces.

Phase 01 / 04 · 2 weeks

Discover

Two weeks, fixed fee, no obligation.

We map the systems you run, the work your people repeat, and the outcome you're being measured on. You get a written findings document and a prioritized plan — whether or not you continue with us.

You receive

  • Systems inventory
  • Risk register
  • Costed roadmap

A representative schedule: Discover runs two weeks, Design three, Build around ten and starts before Design finishes, and Run begins during Build and continues open-ended.

Health & wellness · 2024

A cross-platform health app taken from concept to both app stores

The problem

A health product with no mobile engineering function, a fixed launch date, and a requirement to work without connectivity in clinical settings.

What we did

  1. Offline-first architecture with conflict-resolving sync
  2. Single Flutter codebase targeting both stores
  3. Automated release pipeline handed to the in-house team

They built a user-friendly, visually appealing e-commerce platform — and then stayed for the part that mattered: proactive maintenance and rapid response. It significantly improved our team's efficiency and let us focus on growing sales.
PankajDirector · ArtBoard.ai
As our business grew we needed hosting that could scale with us. They offered dedicated and virtual options that fit our current needs while leaving room to expand, and their security measures mean we know client data is protected.
Puneet MahalDirector · Writeups
We weren't sure where to start with revamping our outdated website. The team took the time to understand our brand and audience, and designed something that genuinely reflects our family business. They're always a phone call away.

We pick tools your next engineer will already know. Nothing here is exotic, and nothing locks you to us.

Security & trust

Your systems. Your data. Your keys.

How we handle access, data and ownership on every engagement — written into the contract, not left to good intentions.

Security services

NDA before discovery

We sign your NDA — or ours — before the first working session.

You hold the keys

Accounts, repositories and cloud subscriptions are created in your name. We request access; you can revoke it any time.

Named, least-privilege access

Every engineer uses a named account with MFA, scoped to what the work needs. No shared logins.

US regions by default

Production data stays in US cloud regions unless you decide otherwise.

No training on your data

Your code and data are never used to train AI models. AI tools run only under terms that exclude training.

Clean offboarding

When someone rotates off or an engagement ends, their access is removed the same day and confirmed in writing.

Where we are

Your hours, and the hours after.

A client lead on US Eastern time, and an engineering center that keeps work moving while you're offline. Live local time for both is shown here — a green light means someone is at a desk.

In brief

The short version.

Straight answers to the questions we're asked before anything else.

Ask us something else

01What does Oranian do?

Oranian is an IT and AI engineering company that designs, builds and operates business software for US companies. We cover 16 practices across five categories — intelligence, build, run, protect and advise — spanning AI and automation, data platforms, software and mobile development, cloud infrastructure, cybersecurity, compliance and IT advisory.

02Who do you work with?

Growing US businesses that need technology capability they can't staff internally — typically organizations without a full-time CTO or an in-house engineering team. Past work spans e-commerce, health and wellness, publishing and professional services.

03How is the team set up?

You get a US-hours client lead who owns delivery, strategy and communication, backed by an engineering center that keeps work moving overnight. There's a daily overlap window in the US Eastern morning, so you review progress, answer questions and set priorities — and wake up to more done.

04How do we start working together?

Every engagement starts with a two-week, fixed-fee discovery. We map your systems and priorities and return a written findings document with a costed, prioritized roadmap. You keep that document whether or not you continue with us.

05Who owns the code and infrastructure you build?

You do, from day one. Repositories, cloud accounts, domains and documentation are created in your name; we request access, not ownership. Every engagement ends with runbooks and a documented handover.

Next step

A two-week, fixed-fee discovery. You get a written findings document and a costed roadmap — and you keep it whether or not you work with us.
