Senior people, real problems, shipped software.
Founded in 2018. Profitable. No debt. No investors. Now delivering faster through Symphony.
Our story
Released was founded in 2018 to solve a specific frustration: clients paying for senior software expertise and getting handed to juniors.
For eight years, we've built products for funded startups and modernised platforms for established organisations — always with a principal at the front, always accountable for the outcome.
In 2026 we changed how we deliver. Symphony — our agentic delivery engine — lets us do what we've always done, faster. The principal still makes every meaningful decision. The mechanical work happens in the background.
What we believe
- Seniority is not a luxury. It is the whole product.
- Working software is the only honest progress report.
- Tests and documentation ship with every change, not after.
- AI belongs in the pipeline, under senior direction.
- The client owns the code. Every time.

Managing Director & Founder
Founder of Released and architect of Symphony. Senior software leader with a track record across early-stage products and enterprise platforms. Sits in front of every client at the start of every engagement.
How we're structured
Released is founder-led with a formal governance framework. The board meets regularly, minutes every meeting, and maintains clear authority delegations.
We maintain this discipline because our clients trust us with critical systems — and because good governance makes us a better consultancy, not a slower one.
Details on our governance framework are available on request for clients, investors and partners who need them.
