We don't recommend what we don't run.
Every platform on this site was built because we needed it ourselves. We do not market what we have not operated through a real outage.
Orion Digital Platforms is not a consulting firm with a product page. We are an engineering team that builds cloud platforms, AI systems, and developer tools — and runs every one of them in production.
Every platform on this site was built because we needed it ourselves. We do not market what we have not operated through a real outage.
The person who scopes is the person who builds is the person who operates the system to handoff. No partner-led pitch and junior-staffed delivery.
If we cannot help, we say so. If the timeline is wrong, we say that too. Every engagement has a defined exit and a written success bar — never a renewal off momentum.
We started as a cloud consultancy. We designed architectures, wrote Terraform, reviewed well-architected frameworks. Good work — but always for someone else's product.
The distance between what we recommended and what we could prove bothered us. So we closed it. We took everything we knew and started building our own platforms.
Sprintsail is the IaC SDK that runs our infrastructure on AWS. Drydock runs the Kubernetes workloads we won't trust to a third party. Shortlist verifies the senior engineers we ship with. When you hire us for cloud architecture or vertical AI, you work with the same team that builds and operates these platforms every day.

Sprintsail's SDK and CLI are Apache 2.0. Drydock runs Korifi (CNCF). Anything we operate, you can take over. No proprietary lock-in.

If we can't help, we say so. If we can but the timeline is wrong, we say that too. If we shouldn't build something at all, we name it.
