Most software will be ephemeral. That's fine.
The idea that software should last forever was always a cost of distribution, not a virtue. Agents change what's worth building — and for how long.
We build full products and serious systems. But we build them precisely: scoped to the real problem, sized to what it actually needs, designed to earn their place. When something better exists, you move on. No legacy. No maintenance tax.
A new age needs new solutions — and new economics. Agents collapse the cost of precision, and premium software stops being a privilege of enterprise budgets. We want Portugal's small and medium companies to rise with it: the same craft, the same care, finally within reach.
Every engagement teaches us something about that fit. The longer arc is a platform where it's native — where the software shapes itself to the person, not the other way around.
