Why build with us?

We combine senior engineering with a 'Super Agile' process to deliver better software, faster. No fluff, just results.

Start Easy, Scale Fast

Hire, adjust, or pause your team with zero friction. Start with one developer and expand as you grow. No handcuffs.

Transparent Pricing

Fixed, fair, and published. No black boxes. Check our services list and know exactly what you’re paying for.

Super Agile Workflow

We cut the meeting fluff. We focus on shipping working software, not talking about it. Fast feedback, faster results.

Daily Deployments

See progress in real-time. We ship code every day using CI/CD and shared boards. You’re never in the dark.

Built-in Quality

Automated testing and rigorous code reviews are our standard. We build products that are stable, secure, and ready to scale.

100% Ownership

It’s yours. All code, designs, and IP belong to you from day one. No vendor lock-in, no hidden games. Total freedom.

Collaborative Partnership

We don’t just build for you; we build *with* you. We train your team and share knowledge so you can take the reins.

Pragmatic Innovation

We use modern tech (serverless, cloud) because it works, not because it’s trendy. Solutions that drive value, not hype.

Zeljko embodies the ideal technologist—part artist, part scientist, and a lifelong learner with a passion for teaching. He's the kind of engineer you build high-performing teams around. I'd gladly adjust my priorities to work alongside him again.

Jon S.

Senior Software Engineer & JavaScript Specialist

Working with Dakic Studio was a truly collaborative experience. As a developer still growing in the field, I appreciated his clarity, patience, and proactive problem-solving. He didn't just build a solution—he made sure I understood it, every step of the way.

Rajiv N.

CTO & Founder

I'm absolutely in love with my new portfolio site, Zeljko and his team brought my vision to life in a way I hadn't even imagined. As a fashion designer, I needed a space that felt artistic, modern, and me. He didn't just build a website; he elevated my brand. Every detail was thoughtfully crafted, and his responsiveness made the whole process stress-free. I've already had clients tell me it looks like a million bucks!
