Rescue · Run · Build
Your fractional senior engineering team.
You depend on software but have no senior engineering team to own it. InStride is that team — fractionally. We rescue the apps that are failing you, run the infrastructure they live on, and build what you need next — AI-accelerated, senior, and US-based.
For companies that depend on an app they can’t staff for — often software an outside or offshore team built.
The software you depend on has no one senior to own it.
You run on custom apps — but you’re too small for an in-house engineering team, so it all lands on an offshore vendor, a lone developer, or whoever’s available. The app drifts onto end-of-life versions, security questions go unanswered, and every change feels risky.
InStride is the senior team you don’t have the headcount to hire — fractionally. We take the code, cloud, and security work off your plate so the software your business runs on stays under control.
How a small senior team moves this fast.
AI-accelerated delivery is how a senior US team reads, upgrades, and ships on unfamiliar codebases faster than the shop that built them — at a price a midsize company can stomach.
| Capability | The legacy way | The InStride way |
|---|---|---|
| Legacy upgrades | Months of by-hand work — or quietly left on end-of-life versions. | AI-accelerated upgrades: legacy framework versions to current in a fraction of the time. |
| Code & security review | Whatever the offshore team shipped, unreviewed by anyone senior. | Senior, agentic review that flags security, compliance drift, and edge cases. |
| Ops & patching | Manual windows, missed patches, and nobody owning uptime. | Automated patch schedules with agentic monitoring and self-healing rollbacks. |
Rescue, run, and build.
Three practices that follow the arc of the software you depend on — from crisis, to stability, to growth.
App Rescue
Take over and modernize the legacy and custom apps your team can no longer safely maintain — off end-of-life, into compliance, back under control.
AWS Management
Run your AWS infrastructure — monitoring, patching, cost, and incident response — as your fractional senior operations team.
Custom Builds & Automation
Build the custom apps, internal tools, and workflow automation no off-the-shelf SaaS sells — senior, US-based, AI-accelerated.
Knowing you have vulnerabilities is easy. Patching them safely is the hard part.
We use AI-driven agentic patching pipelines to clear CVEs, upgrade your zero-trust controls, and get your code SOC 2-ready — without breaking production.
