jig is the software factory for operations teams: a platform, a build framework, and a forward deployed engineering pod that turns your workflows into production tools. Live in a week. Flat subscription. You own everything it builds.
The problem
Operations leaders are choosing between models that were never built for the problem in front of them.
You spend months configuring workarounds for workflows that should simply work, and the fit still stays approximate. The gap gets filled with spreadsheets.
A thorough model, built for large and well-defined projects. Scoping, procurement, and delivery run in months. Most internal tool problems don't justify that cycle.
Something demonstrable appears in an afternoon. What's missing underneath is permissions, an audit trail, hosting, and an owner once it breaks in month four.
The result: Critical workflows living in spreadsheets, tool stacks held together by manual exports, and an IT backlog that never clears. Your team works around the software instead of with it.
The product
Internal software fails on the same three constraints every time: infrastructure nobody wants to build twice, patterns nobody has standardised, and delivery teams who don't understand the operation. jig supplies all three as a single product.
Hosting, isolated data infrastructure, and a self-serve workspace at yourcompany.withjig.com. Every tool you own runs on the same foundation, so your tenth tool inherits what your first tool already proved.
Ships with three modules by default: authentication, access management, and AI integration. On top sits specialized knowledge management, your domain rules and terminology captured once and reused every sprint. That's what compresses builds into one week.
A forward deployed engineer and a product manager, embedded with your team. They write the specification, build on the framework, and deploy. Additional engineers join the pod as scope grows.
The product itself. Fixed infrastructure and build patterns that every tool draws from, licensed on a flat monthly fee regardless of who is building on them.
The delivery mechanism. Your pod operates the framework on your behalf, translating your workflows into a written specification and a deployed tool.

What we build
From a single tool replacing a manual process to a connected platform running an entire department.
Real-time visibility into the metrics that matter to your team, connected to your actual data sources.
Track clients, deals, and relationships your way — not forced into a generic sales template.
Route requests, collect sign-offs, and control spend automatically across your organisation.
Structured, repeatable processes for hiring, onboarding, and offboarding — with no manual coordination.
Eliminate manual, repetitive tasks across any department. If a human does it on a schedule, we automate it.
Connect your existing tools so data flows automatically, without manual exports or copy-paste.
Forward deployed engineering
Your account is run by a forward deployed engineering pod: the same people, from discovery through every sprint after it.
Assigned at discovery, your pod stays with you. Nothing is handed across a boundary sprint to sprint, so nothing is lost at the handover.
Your pod maps how the work actually gets done before writing a specification: the exceptions and informal rules that decide whether a tool gets used.
Simple builds run on the core pod. Connected, multi-department builds add engineers to the same pod instead of starting a new relationship.
Bug fixes are covered under the platform fee. New features are scoped as a new sprint, run by the pod that already knows the account.
How delivery works
Every tool moves through the same five stations. The sequence is fixed; the tool is not. That's what makes the timeline predictable enough to quote before the work starts.
You bring your five highest-friction workflows. Your pod selects the one with the highest impact and the lowest complexity: the one that proves the model fastest.
Your forward deployed engineer writes the specification with the people who do the work. Edge cases surface here, before code exists. You approve scope before the sprint opens.
Platform provisioned, framework components assembled, generation constrained to the specification. Your workspace goes live and progress is visible in real time.
Tested against the written specification by your pod and by the team who will use the tool. Review happens against a document, not an interpretation.
Into production on your workspace. Invite the team, set permissions, start using it. Billing begins at deployment, not at day one of the conversation.
Your teams don't always want to start with discovery. Most already have something working: a prototype three different departments quietly rebuilt with overlapping features and zero governance between them. BYOA takes what they built and rebuilds it on jig: same logic, enterprise-grade auth, security, and support.
Pricing
Building a tool costs $3,000 per sprint week. Keeping it running is a separate flat monthly. The calculator below helps you estimate both for your situation.
Every tool is built in week-long sprints at a flat $3,000 per sprint. Simpler tools take one sprint. More connected workflows take more. You only pay per active build week — pause or stop at any time.
Once it's built, a separate monthly fee covers hosting, maintenance, and support. Your first tool is hosted free.
The platform
Your workspace at yourcompany.withjig.com — complete control over tools, users, sprints, and billing without contacting your pod for routine operations.
Your complete tool library — live tools, tools in build, and a full deployment history.
Full control over who can see and use each tool across your organisation.
Full transparency into what's being built, what's been delivered, and what's been requested.
Manage your plan, usage, and data — completely self-serve, no dependencies on our team.
Changes & revisions
Every change is classified upfront. No ambiguity, no surprise bills.
Not sure which category applies? Use “Plan an update” in your dashboard. The AI agent classifies the request and sets expectations before your PM gets involved — so you always know what a change will cost before the conversation starts. The PM makes the final call.
Ownership
The codebase, the data, the business logic — it's all yours from day one.
Your data is logically separated from every other client. Never shared, never mixed with another tenant's data.
Request a complete export of all your data at any time, in a clean, portable format.
Request the complete source code of every tool we've built for you. It's yours to keep and deploy.
Take the code and run it on your own infrastructure. Built to work independently of jig.
Manage your subscription like any SaaS product. No penalties, no lock-in periods, no questions asked.
If jig ever shuts down, you receive your complete data and source code with no conditions attached.

Reliability
Auto-scaling infrastructure. Tools scale to zero when unused and spin up instantly on demand — no idle cost, no ops overhead on your side.
Trained on your tool. Answers usage queries 24/7. Your team gets answers without raising a ticket.
Login, access, dashboard — human support available within your plan's SLA window.
Isolated data infrastructure per client. No shared databases, no cross-client data exposure.
Security & compliance
The questions your IT and legal teams will ask — answered upfront.
Your infrastructure is logically separated from every other client. No shared databases, no cross-tenant data exposure — by architecture, not policy.
AES-256 encryption at rest. TLS 1.2+ in transit. All data is encrypted from the moment it enters the platform to the moment it leaves.
Each engagement includes a Data Processing Agreement. We act as data processor — you remain controller. Full data export available at any time, in portable format.
Role-based permissions per tool, per user — managed by your team without raising a support ticket. Full audit log of access changes available on request.
Enterprise plans support data residency configuration — US, EU, or MEA regions. Available as part of the Enterprise arrangement. Specify during discovery.
We provide a completed security questionnaire, DPA, and sub-processor list on request. No waiting weeks for a vendor assessment response.
Get started
Discovery is free. Your first tool is live within a week. You own everything from day one. No commitment until you see working software.
Book free discovery →jig is the software factory built by Skaleminds — a technical consultancy with over seven years of delivery experience across the US, Europe, and MEA. That experience is built into the platform and framework; forward deployed engineering pods put it to work on your operation, at a fraction of traditional consultancy cost.
