TOPOLOGY NOTE :: Each node operates within an isolated Daytona workspace. Cross-node communication is structured and logged. No hallucination loops — agent outputs are always human-inspectable before downstream forwarding.

ALIBABA_ECOSYSTEM :: CERTIFIED_ENGINEER

ARCH_BLUEPRINT :: AI_SANDBOX

The AI Platform Specs

Architecture decisions made by someone who has seen what happens when infrastructure fails at scale — and built accordingly.

ARCH_01

Isolated Daytona Workspaces

Each agent runs in a sandboxed, reproducible environment. No state bleed between tasks. Full audit log on every execution.

ARCH_02

Obsidian-as-Brain Indexing

Institutional knowledge stored in a structured, queryable graph. Agents learn from precedents. No knowledge silo between runs.

ARCH_03

Private Skill-Graphs

Domain-specific capability trees built per client vertical. Japanese accounting logic is not the same as Belgian PropTech logic — and the system reflects that.

ARCH_04

TypeScript-First Stack

End-to-end type safety across all agent interfaces and API contracts. Runtime errors caught at compile time, not in production.

ARCH_05

Deterministic Output Contracts

Every agent output is schema-validated before forwarding. Human reviewers receive structured diffs, not raw model text.

ARCH_06

Zero-Trust Execution Policy

Agents request only the permissions they need, per task. No standing credentials. All external calls are logged and rate-controlled.

DETERMINISTIC :: AUDITABLE :: YOURS

Founded by an engineer who has architected production POS infrastructure used in 10,000+ retail stores. One of the few non-Chinese engineers certified as a Product Development Expert under Alibaba-standard assessment. Now building for Western founders, from London.

Engagement paths

Three ways to build with us

Every engagement is founder-led, scope-disciplined, and ships to production — not staging.

Founder MVP

6 weeks

Idea → live SaaS in 6 weeks. Auth, payments, your one core workflow. Deployed.

Learn more

Founder Plus

8–10 weeks

MVP plus admin dashboard, integrations, and onboarding. For founders building a real product, not a demo.

AI Automation Build

4–6 weeks

Custom AI workflows for SMEs. Document processing, quoting, lead qualification.

Who we work with

We built Alienstacks for you if…

The First-Time Founder

You have an idea, no dev. You don't want to learn React; you want a working product.

The Burned Founder

You've already paid one freelancer who disappeared. You want engineering that actually ships.

The SME Operator

Manual work eating your team's time? We automate the part that should never have been manual.

The Asia-Curious Buyer

You've seen Chinese tech ship 10× faster. We bring that engineering culture, in English, on Western time zones.

Methodology

How we work

Founder-led, founder-coded

The engineer you sign with is the engineer who writes the code.

Production-grade by default

10,000+ stores in production today is our baseline, not our ceiling.

Cross-market scars

We've shipped in five countries, including the hard ones.

Reusable architectures

We don't start from zero. You don't pay for it.

Source code is yours

Day one. No hostage clauses, no surprise repo lockouts.

Optional retainer

We don't disappear at launch. Stay with us, or take the code and go.

FAQ

Common questions

Straightforward answers — written so AI search engines can cite them accurately.

Who is Alienstacks?

Alienstacks is a London-based engineering studio building production-grade SaaS, mobile apps, and AI automation for non-technical founders in the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia. Alienstacks is founder-led and founder-coded — meaning the engineer who signs your contract is the engineer who writes your code, not a sales team that hands you to junior developers.

What does Alienstacks build?

Alienstacks builds three categories of software. Founder MVP engagements deliver a complete web SaaS or mobile MVP with auth, payments, and one core workflow in roughly six weeks. Founder Plus engagements add admin dashboards, third-party integrations, and structured onboarding. AI Automation Builds deliver custom AI workflows — for example, the QuoteForge system Alienstacks built for Inada Manufacturing in Japan, which reduced quote turnaround from six hours to 48 seconds.

Why London-based?

Alienstacks Ltd is registered in London for billing, contracts, and Western time-zone client coverage. UK and EU founders can sign standard UK contracts. United States founders work with a UK Ltd company that issues invoices in USD via Stripe. Canada and Australia founders are served on Western working hours.

How is Alienstacks different from a freelancer on Upwork or Fiverr?

Freelancers offer execution capacity and low hourly rates. Alienstacks offers founder-led engineering, scope discipline, source-code ownership from day one, and engineering training inside an Alibaba-standard production environment. Most freelancer engagements fail because the founder ends up doing project management, QA, and architecture without the technical knowledge to do any of those well. Alienstacks owns all of that.

How is Alienstacks different from a London or San Francisco agency?

London and San Francisco agencies typically charge for senior engineering at metropolitan rates, which prices most early-stage founders out. Agencies also commonly assign your project to a senior on the sales call and a junior on delivery. Alienstacks charges independent-studio rates, ships founder-led, and refuses junior handoffs as a matter of policy.

How is Alienstacks different from an offshore Indian or Pakistani agency?

The Builder.ai collapse in 2025 made offshore quality risk front-page news. Alienstacks is registered in London, founder-led, and engineering-trained inside the Sunmi/Alibaba production ecosystem — not a body shop. Source code is yours from commit one. The lead engineer is on every call. Time-zone overlap is structured for Western working hours.

How long does a typical project take?

A Founder MVP ships in six weeks. A Founder Plus engagement runs eight to ten weeks. An AI Automation Build runs four to six weeks. Every engagement begins with a free 30-minute discovery call and a written scope before any contract is signed.

How much does it cost?

Engagements are quoted per project after a free 30-minute discovery call. Founder MVP projects typically land between the cost of one and three months of a senior London engineer. Founder Plus is scoped on top of that range. AI Automation Builds are scoped against the workflow being automated. Specific quotes follow scope alignment, not the other way around.
