Software Development Consultancy

Modern Cloud & AI Solutions for your Digital Transformation

SmartBee is a UK software development consultancy. We engineer custom applications, cloud architecture and AI-enabled software — specified, built, tested and delivered as working software.

Cloud Architecture Full-Stack Development AI-Enabled Software Digital Transformation

We turn complex business problems into software that scales: cloud architecture, full-stack products, AI systems.

Professional

SmartBee follows structured, disciplined engineering practices — clear communication, documented decisions and transparent delivery — to ensure successful project outcomes and client satisfaction.

Experienced

SmartBee's engineering capability is grounded in deep production experience across cloud, full-stack and AI systems, with a research foundation in computer engineering and natural language processing.

Agile

SmartBee employs agile development practices to deliver high-quality solutions efficiently. We prioritize iterative development, continuous feedback integration, and rapid adaptation to evolving requirements.

What we do

Services

End-to-end software delivery, from cloud architecture and product engineering through to the AI systems we build into the software you already run.

Cloud Architecture & AWS

Serverless architectures on AWS — Lambda, ECS/Fargate, DynamoDB, S3 and SQS/SNS messaging — with CloudFormation infrastructure as code and complete CI/CD pipelines.

  • AWS
  • Serverless
  • CI/CD

Full-Stack Product Development

Pixel-perfect frontends in React and Next.js, backed by Node.js APIs built on SOLID principles with event-driven architectures and predictable state management.

  • React
  • Next.js
  • Node.js

AI Software Engineering

MCP servers, AI agents, chatbots and retrieval engines developed in Node.js and TypeScript, and integrated into the products and workflows you already run.

  • MCP
  • Agents
  • RAG

Mobile Applications

Cross-platform iOS and Android applications with React Native and TypeScript — sharing code across platforms while keeping a native user experience.

  • React Native
  • TypeScript
  • Redux

Data & Database Architecture

Relational and NoSQL data modelling — PostgreSQL and Supabase alongside MongoDB and DynamoDB single-table design — shaped around your real access patterns.

  • PostgreSQL
  • DynamoDB
  • MongoDB

Developer Tooling

Custom VS Code extensions, language servers, debugging tools and MCP integrations that speed up your own engineering team's daily workflow.

  • VS Code API
  • MCP
  • Automation
AI Software Engineering

AI engineering that ships into production

This is software development work. We write the applications, services and integrations that put AI to work — agents, protocol servers, assistants and automated pipelines running against your own systems and data.

AI Skills & Agents

Task-scoped agents and skills that plug into an existing product, take a job end to end, and hand back a result your system can act on.

MCP Services

Model Context Protocol servers that connect AI assistants safely to your internal APIs, databases and business systems with the access controls you need.

Chatbots & Conversational AI

Customer support, internal knowledge and lead-qualification assistants, grounded in your own content and wired into the channels your users already use.

AI Engines & RAG

Retrieval-augmented search over private data — embeddings, vector stores and ranking — so answers come from your documents with citations, not guesswork.

AI Workflows & Automation

Multi-step pipelines that automate operational work: classify, extract, enrich and route — with human review at the points where it actually matters.

AI-Assisted Engineering Tools

Custom extensions, MCP integrations and review automation, built to specification and handed over as software your own engineers run.

Written in Node.js + TypeScript and delivered like any other engagement — source code, APIs, tests, documentation and CI/CD pipelines.

Technologies

The stack we build on

The tools we reach for every day. They are a starting point, not a boundary — we pick what fits the problem.

AI & Automation

Model Context Protocol

We build MCP servers that give AI assistants governed access to internal APIs, data and tools.

AI & LLM Integration

We put agents, assistants and retrieval engines into products that are already in production.

Node.js

We build event-driven APIs and AI services on it, from Lambda functions to long-running workers.

Frontend & Mobile

TypeScript

We write front to back in it, for type safety that still holds up in a large codebase.

React & Next.js

We build server-rendered product frontends that stay fast as the product grows.

Vite

We build on it for instant feedback and lean bundles. This site is one of them.

React Native

We ship iOS and Android from one TypeScript codebase without losing the native feel.

Backend & APIs

REST & OpenAPI

We design versioned APIs documented as contracts, so integrators are never left guessing.

GraphQL & Apollo

We build schema-first APIs for clients that need to shape their own queries.

Redis

We reach for it when caching, queues or rate limiting decide whether a service stays fast.

Serverless on AWS

We build Lambda, API Gateway and SQS pipelines that scale with traffic, not with servers.

Data

PostgreSQL

We model relational data properly, and lean on JSON and complex queries where they earn their place.

Supabase

We use it to stand up authenticated Postgres backends with row-level security, quickly.

DynamoDB

We design single-table models around real access patterns, not a table per entity.

MongoDB

We use it where schemas keep moving and aggregation pipelines do the heavy lifting.

Cloud & Tooling

AWS Cloud

We architect and run the whole stack — compute, storage, messaging and infrastructure as code.

VS Code Extensions

We build language servers, debugging tools and workflow extensions on the Extension API.

We also work with

Our experience runs well beyond this list. If your platform is not here, it is almost certainly still a conversation worth having.

  • Python
  • Express.js
  • Apollo Server
  • AWS Lambda
  • API Gateway
  • SQS & SNS
  • S3
  • CloudFormation
  • Serverless Framework
  • ECS & Fargate
  • MySQL
  • Single Table Design
  • Redux
  • Vue.js
How we work

Visible, documented, yours to keep

Modern engineering practice, applied with discipline.

01

Our tools, our setup

We work remotely on our own infrastructure and development environment. As standard, no hardware, software, namespaces or licences on your side.

02

Progress you can audit

Version control, code review, automated tests and CI/CD from the first commit. Progress is something you can inspect, not something we report.

03

You own the output

Source code, documentation and infrastructure configuration are handed over as deliverables. Your engineers can run and extend it without us.
