Frontier technology for the businesses big tech overlooks.
LifeVen is a boutique studio. We design and build websites, software and interactive experiences for companies and institutions, and we make and run products of our own.
Three ways we help.
Every project starts with a short written brief and ends with something running, built and handed over by one team.
- WebsitesSites that Google and AI assistants can find, visitors trust and customers choose, on modern technology you own outright.
- Software & appsInternal tools, customer apps, SaaS products and AI in the tools you already use, engineered to the standard of software used by millions.
- Interactive experiencesProduct demos, company stories and exhibit pieces people want to explore, on the web, in the showroom or on the gallery floor.
We make our own products, too.
We design, ship and run our own apps, in many languages on the App Store and Google Play, and BarnLinking, a platform for equestrian businesses. Making them keeps us close to what it takes to build software people use every day.

We also make interactive works of our own, to explore new subjects and techniques. They all run in the browser.

One team, start to finish
The people who plan your project are the people who design and build it. Nothing gets lost between an agency, a designer and a development shop.
Serious engineering
More than a decade of senior software engineering at Big Tech on services used by millions of people worldwide, and fifteen years of research and practice in designing better interactive and user experiences.
Built for the AI era
Everything we make is designed for a world shaped by AI: sites that AI assistants can find and cite, products that put the right models to work where they help, and advice on what is worth adopting, so you are not left behind.
No surprises
You get a written quote before we start, and it doesn’t grow with hidden extras. You see the work as it progresses, and everything we make is yours.

A few sentences is enough. We reply in writing with questions, a direction and, once the scope is clear, a fixed quote.
