Proof, not promises

Case studies from 50+ products shipped since 2017.

*Current product work first; the smart-contract projects of 2021 to 2023 below it.

OccamStrata company logo

OccamStrata

Melbourne, Australia

70% less staff time on routine work and 30% lower staff costs for OccamStrata, a Melbourne strata manager that had just acquired a property management company.

One automation engineer, three months. The business moved off an ageing CRM onto a single source of truth in Airtable, kept in sync two ways with Urbanise for the financials. Emails, record updates and new entries went to automations.

Swan mark for the SWANS case study

SWANS

United States

A launch-ready booking MVP in two months, with two builders.

Hollywood stars and their managers find hair and makeup artists by name or skill, check availability, and book and pay in one flow. Invitation only.

CachePay company logo

CachePay

Denmark

Merchants paid in fiat within 10 minutes of a sale.

A payment gateway that lets shops take crypto at checkout without holding it, so volatility never reaches them. Merchant onboarding, KYC included, takes under 10 minutes.

Flur company logo

Flur

California, United States

A creator platform live in eight weeks.

Creators onboard in minutes and turn posts into collectible editions, a thousand at a dollar each. The second release gave creators and the platform a business model: a 10% fee on each donation.

AnyoneGroup company logo

AnyoneGroup

United States

Prototype to launched marketplace in six months.

Buyers join groups anonymously to get group discounts, and are charged only when a group fills. Sellers sell to groups to lower their acquisition costs. 5,000 products came in from Shopify.

Shovel company logo

Shovel

United States

A study planner that calculates, in real time, the time a student has and the time the work needs.

Calendar, task management and planning in one app for college students and universities, simple and intuitive for an extremely feature-rich product, and built to scale from hundreds to hundreds of thousands of users.

Numa company logo

Numa

Berlin, Germany

A housekeeping task manager for a hospitality company, launched on web and mobile within three months.

Bushido extended Numa's in-house team in Berlin and built the non-core product inside the company: a responsive web app for operations and housekeeping staff, and an internal iOS and Android app.

Bushido logo

Bushido

Our own site, off a Webflow export and onto Astro, in one working week.

Fifteen pages ported one to one and checked against the originals, 33 redirects, and a build that fails if any old URL would answer nothing.

Then a redesign: the site rebuilt around four offers, ten collage illustrations animated into loops, the Bushido mark in motion and kanji that explain themselves.

Earlier work, 2021 to 2023

Smart-contract products, kept on the record. Not a service line.

Ethereum diamond mark for the ENS HQ case study

ENS HQ

United States

A marketplace for .eth domains in three weeks, from a 45-minute call.

Brokers sell .eth domains on behalf of their holders, with offers found nowhere else. Offer requests stay off-chain, holders stay owners until a sale, and a signed contract keeps every price as agreed.

Basketball mark for the dynamic NFT case study

Basketball NFTs

California, United States

6,400 live-scoring NFTs, built in two months by two developers.

A hundred tokens for each of the tournament’s 64 teams, each showing its team’s live score. When a team went out, its tokens became participation trophies, until only the champion’s 100 remained.

Rising-price mark for the daily NFT auction case study

Daily NFT auction

United Kingdom

Fully on-chain NFTs, 1,000x cheaper to mint, by one developer in four months.

A generative collection that mints only on days ETH rises, rarer the longer the run, auctioned daily to fund a DAO its holders govern. Art, metadata and DAO all on Ethereum.

Prosopo company logo

Prosopo

United Kingdom

Nine months inside Prosopo’s team, building bot protection for Polkadot.

After its Web3 Foundation grant, Prosopo needed more hands. One Bushido developer worked on Rust smart contracts, a Substrate validator node, and the frontend and backend around them.

Web3 gallery company logo

Stealth mode

United Kingdom

Provenance for physical art, free for the collector, built in four months.

A Web3 gallery where galleries and artists sign each event in an artwork's life on-chain, so ownership can be verified and traced as pieces change hands.

Catblox company logo

Catblox

California, United States

A rewards token and marketplace for Genesis holders, who pay no gas.

CatNip, an ERC-20 utility token, rewards Catblox Genesis holders by how long they hold, spent on a marketplace for digital offers. When Moralis went SDK-only, the backend was rebuilt in three weeks.

A few of the things we shipped, and what it took.

What has Bushido built?

50+ products since 2017, among them a booking platform, a two-sided marketplace, a crypto-to-fiat payment gateway, a study planner, a housekeeping app and operations automation. The case studies below are the ones we can show; some of our best work stays under NDA.

Each one carries the industry, the engagement length, the team size and the exact stack. No logos without stories.
