What we build.
One studio from first sketch to production. Quality is engineered in from the first commit, not inspected on at the end.
02
Mobile apps
iOS and Android apps that feel native and survive real networks, real devices and app-store review.
03
Websites & CMS
Fast, beautiful sites your team edits itself. No page builders, no platform tax.
04
APIs & integrations
Payments, identity, CRMs and legacy systems, wired together to fail gracefully and tested end to end.
05
Quality engineering
Automation frameworks, CI pipelines and release gates for products that already exist, or are about to bet the company.
06
Cloud & delivery
CI/CD, edge hosting and monitoring on AWS, Azure or Cloudflare. Every release, boring.

Samantha Walmsley-Bartlett
A strategist's site she runs herself. She drafts, we approve, and it is live at the edge in two minutes.

Circular by Nature
Launch site for a national circular-economy white paper. The brand came from the print edition, and the site opened itself at 6:30am NZDT.
// 03 · who we build for
Where getting it wrong is expensive.
We do our best work where software carries real money, real compliance or a real reputation.
- a
Legal-tech & conveyancing
Closings, title, trust accounting and e-signing. We know the workflows from the inside.
- b
Fintech & banking
Identity verification, FINTRAC, lending and payments, built for auditors as well as users.
- c
Startups
An MVP that does not need rebuilding the moment it starts to work.
- d
Purpose-led organisations
Sites and tools for changemakers who need to be heard, and trusted.

Quality is
the pipeline.
Every project we ship runs through the same gates. Nothing reaches your customers on a red build.
- Automated tests from the first commit
- A preview link for every change
- Accessibility checked to WCAG 2.2 AA

Every engagement, as a commit log.
Read it like git log --reverse. Short loops, visible progress, and you always know what it costs.
-
Discover
chore(scope): one conversation, one-page brief
- What success looks like, what could break it, and a fixed quote.
-
Design
feat(design): flows and visuals agreed before code
- A clickable prototype. The riskiest assumptions get tested first.
-
Build
feat(build): weekly increments you can click
- A preview link for every change. Tests are written with the code.
-
Prove
test(e2e): every change through the pipeline
- Green means shippable. Red never ships.
-
Launch
release: v1.0.0 to production
- Deployed, documented and yours outright: code, repo and domain.
-
Care
chore(care): support and improvements, on retainer
- Updates, monitoring and new features when you want them.
// 06 · the studio
Small studio.
Serious track record.
Assay Labs is led by founder Prabhjot Assi, who spent seventeen years engineering quality for some of Canada's most demanding software: its largest conveyancing platforms, a national bank and regulated fintech. Every engagement gets founder-level attention.
