Studio
One senior team, from first idea to live operation.
Eirvanta defines, designs, engineers and operates ambitious software products. We can build a new product from a blank page, create the next defining release of an existing one, or take responsibility for a critical product workstream. The founders remain directly involved throughout.
Start where the product needs us.
We can create a product from its first definition, build a defining part of an existing product, take a product through launch, or continue improving and operating it after release. These are common starting points, not fixed packages; we shape the engagement around what the product requires.
Product Definition
For an idea, opportunity or major product decision that needs to become concrete before delivery begins. We establish who the product is for, what it must achieve, where its boundaries sit and how it should be designed and built. The result is a decision-ready product direction and a clear route into delivery.
- Five days to four weeks, depending on the decision.
- User, commercial and operational reality.
- Product boundary and experience model.
- Technical direction and delivery sequence.
- Prototype where it will reduce uncertainty.
- A final decision memo owned by the client.
Focused Product Phase
One senior team accountable for a bounded product outcome: a new product, the defining release of an existing one, a critical feature or an operational system. Eirvanta holds product direction, design, engineering and launch together, and operates the product where the work requires it. Scope and timing are established from the outcome once we understand the work—never a fixed calendar, never staff augmentation.
- A bounded product outcome agreed up front.
- A new product, defining release, critical feature or operational system.
- Direct founder involvement throughout.
- Agreed governance and named decision owners.
- Specialists added only where the product requires them.
- Released to real users or a real operating environment.
- Public-credit and case-study terms agreed commercially.
Continued Product Work
Subsequent releases or ongoing responsibility once a phase has delivered—improvement, operation and the next defining moves, with the same accountable team. Where the work and the contract support sufficient delivery capacity, this can extend into an embedded arrangement, negotiated as a continuation rather than sold as the default.
- Subsequent releases and defining moves.
- Live operation and continuous improvement.
- Embedded work only as a negotiated continuation.
- A clean handover whenever the engagement concludes.
When Eirvanta is the right partner
Eirvanta is strongest when the product matters enough that strategy, design and engineering cannot be separated: a new venture has to become real; an existing product needs its next defining release; a demanding experience must work under real operating conditions; or a critical product workstream needs one accountable team. We work directly with founders and senior leaders who care about the result, not merely the output.
What we are not
Eirvanta is not strategy handed off for somebody else to implement, design applied after the important decisions, or a rented development bench. We take responsibility for deciding what should be built and for making it work in the real world.
Ownership, access and handover
Client engagements are structured so the client can operate and continue the product without depending indefinitely on Eirvanta. Every phase concludes with a working handover, and every handover covers:
- Repository access
- Infrastructure and account ownership
- Documentation
- Architecture records
- Deployment instructions
- Environment configuration
- Dependency and licence inventory
- Test coverage
- Operational runbooks
- Knowledge transfer
- End-of-engagement handover
- Ongoing support options
Ownership follows the agreement, plainly: bespoke deliverables built for a client transfer according to the agreement and its payment terms; materials and data a client provides remain the client’s; Eirvanta’s pre-existing tools, methods and owned products remain Eirvanta’s, with the usage rights the agreement grants; open-source dependencies stay under their own licences; jointly built ventures are owned as jointly agreed.
Built for live operation
We design for the conditions a product will actually face: real users, unreliable networks, changing schedules, security requirements, failures and handovers.
- Testing and release discipline
- Accessibility
- Security and data handling
- Observability, backup and recovery
- Deployment, documentation and operational runbooks
- Post-launch ownership and support
Operating principles
Useful before impressive.
Usefulness is the standard, not an excuse for mediocrity. We design function, clarity and beauty together; polish is earned by how well the product works, not applied after the useful work is finished.
Beauty must improve understanding.
Craft is part of the product, not a decorative layer. It should make the experience clearer, more trustworthy and more memorable while remaining exact in operation.
The same people think, design and build.
Product direction, experience and engineering remain with the same senior team. The people making the decisions also make the product, so intent survives every implementation detail.
A product must work in service, not only at launch.
We remain accountable after release—observing how the product behaves in real conditions, improving it and making sure it continues to deserve its place.
How we work
We can enter at any stage. This is the complete path when we own the product from beginning to operation.
Understand
We learn the users, operation, constraints and decision that matters.
Define
We set the product boundary, evidence, experience and technical direction.
Design and build
The same team moves between prototypes, production engineering and operational detail.
Launch, operate and improve
We put the product into use, observe what happens and own the next move.
The co-founders
Louanne Murphy and Sean Murphy share responsibility for Eirvanta and work hands-on across its products—from the first question through product direction, design, engineering, launch and live operation.
Louanne Murphy
Louanne is a product builder and software engineer with more than a decade of experience building software. She has spoken at Microsoft Build twice, and her work spans product design and engineering across production web applications, native Apple platforms, AI interfaces and real-time 3D. Before Eirvanta, she contributed to product work involving Microsoft Bing, Browserbase, Parallel, Bluesky, and more.
louanne.meSean Murphy
Sean is a product and technology leader with more than two decades of experience designing software for complex, high-consequence operations. His work spans automated underwriting, healthcare decisioning and contact-centre platforms used by major US insurers. He served as CTO of a healthcare technology business acquired by Xerox, later led Intelligent Automation Solutions at Conduent and subsequently co-founded Vistio.
