A studio, not an agency.
Corvidae Limited is an Auckland, New Zealand software and AI development studio. We spend our days designing, building and operating our own SaaS products, and we take on client work we can treat the same way: with an owner's care.
Corvidae.
Corvidae is the family name of the corvids: crows, ravens and magpies, the sharpest problem solvers in the sky. They use tools, plan ahead and remember what works. We aspire to the standard.
Direct to the person building it.
Habib Pourfard
Software Architect, Auckland
Corvidae is founded and led by Habib Pourfard, a software architect who still writes code every day. When you work with Corvidae you talk directly to the person building your product, not an account manager.
The people designing client architecture are the same people operating Corvidae's own production products, working daily in .NET, React, TypeScript, PostgreSQL and AWS.

No invented counters.
No stock testimonials, no padded case studies. These are the numbers behind this site, and you can click every one of them on the products page, or read how each one was built in our case studies.
Three plain principles.
Small and senior
No account managers and no bench of juniors learning on your budget. The person who scopes your project is the person who builds it.
Ship weekly
You see a running product every week, not a slide deck. Small increments keep the direction honest and the risk low.
Run what we build
We operate our own products in production every day, so we build client work to be operated for years, not handed off and forgotten.
