Sahil Lavingia on Twitter

After Gumroad’s 2015 layoffs.

Tweet by Sahil Lavingia (@shl), Jan 13, 2020: After our layoffs in 2015, the team at @BigBinary stepped in and helped Gumroad stay in business. We continue to work with them today. If you’re looking for a ruby/rails-focused dev shop, they have my full endorsement!

BigBinary Made a Difference

On Jan 7, 2021 Sahil Lavingia wrote a blog about how he runs Gumroad without any meeting, deadlines or any full-time employees. In this blog Sahil mentions the following.

“Instead, I found an Indian firm called BigBinary and hired a few engineers as contractors. These contractors saved the company. They fixed bugs and maintained the site while I answered support tickets, designed features, and wrote about new initiatives.”

Neeto

We don’t just consult. We build.

Neeto is our growing collection of SaaS products and our proof of work. We build, scale, upgrade and operate these products ourselves, dealing with the same engineering challenges our consulting clients face every day.

When we wanted to understand deployment infrastructure more deeply, we built NeetoDeploy, our own alternative to Heroku. Today, every Neeto product runs on it.

What we learn building Neeto makes us better Ruby on Rails engineers, and we bring those lessons to every client we work with.
