Production studio · South Africa · since 2003

AI builds it.
We make it a business.

Anyone can generate an app that half-works. We harden it, secure it, ship it on your domain, and keep it alive month after month. The idea is yours. The production is ours.

Subscribe · we keep it alive

Ship it once. Keep it alive for good.

The build is only half the job. Software rots, dependencies break, spam filters shift, customers ask questions. Our subscriptions keep your app healthy and growing, the ops team a founder can't afford to hire full-time.

Why "solid" isn't just a word

Whatever we build, it ships production-ready.

Anyone can generate something that looks finished. We build the part that survives real users, real money and real data. Every UPMRKT build passes this before it goes near your customers.

Proof, not promises

We don't just fix apps. We run our own.

Every tool we sell, we run in production ourselves. And we've run community platforms at real scale for years. That's the standard we hold your app to, and the reason we're different from a cleanup shop that only touches other people's code.
