Pinebit

Maine-based technology firm

We find the problem holding your business back, then we build the fix.

That can mean a website that brings in your next customer, or the data, automation, and AI behind a growing operation. Whatever it is, we build it to hold up.

Where we stand

Most technology work fails the same way. It looks great in the first meeting, then falls apart in month three. We build things that still work after the kickoff energy is gone.

So we dig for the problem worth solving, build the smallest system that fixes it, and hand you something you own and can run. You won’t need a glossary to read our proposals, and you won’t need us on retainer to keep it running.

What we do

Services

All services
Flagship

Problem-Solving Shop

Custom software and automation, built to fix the problem you actually have.

This is what we do best. You bring the messy, expensive problem nobody wants to touch. We build the working software that fixes it, shaped around your operation, and hand you the keys. If what you want is a binder of recommendations, we're the wrong firm.

Bring us a problem
  • Web Services

    Websites that bring in work, plus the apps and internal tools that help you run it.

    Some clients need a site customers can find and trust. Others need one internal system to replace a tangle of spreadsheets and email. Either way, we build web software that fits how the work gets done, and we build it so anyone competent can take it over after us.

  • Data Services

    Business intelligence, dashboards, and the pipelines underneath: reporting your team can trust.

    We build the data layer underneath good decisions: pipelines, models, warehouses, and the BI on top of them. The point is numbers your team believes and reporting that doesn't break the next time the source data shifts. A dashboard that looks good in a screenshot is easy. One that's still right in six months is the job.

  • AI Governance & Rollout Consulting

    Roll out AI with a plan, guardrails, and a name attached to the decisions.

    Most organizations are adopting AI faster than they're governing it. We stand up the governance side: policy, guardrails, tool selection, training, and ongoing oversight. Think of it as a part-time AI governance lead on your side of the table, keeping your rollout responsible and defensible. You get the upside without the free-for-all.

  • Local & On-Prem AI Infrastructure

    Private AI on your own hardware: self-hosted LLM servers, built for privacy and control.

    When your data can't or shouldn't leave the building, we design and deploy self-hosted LLM infrastructure on your own hardware. Sensitive information stays put, and the cost stays predictable because the machines are yours. We handle the build-out and make sure it keeps running for the people who depend on it.

IT Support: Basic IT, only as needed to make everything above work together.

How we work

We build for year three.

Our approach
  1. 01

    Diagnose the real problem

    The problem that's easiest to describe is rarely the one costing you money. We dig until we find the one that is. Most failed software is a precise solution to the wrong problem.

  2. 02

    Build the smallest thing that works

    We build the leanest system that fixes the problem. No gold-plating. Fewer moving parts means fewer things to break and a lower bill.

  3. 03

    Hand over something you own

    You get working software you control and can run yourself. Our goal is to make ourselves optional.

  4. 04

    Stay close and accountable

    We're a small Maine firm. You talk to the people doing the work, and we stand behind what we ship.
