We build software we'd want to use ourselves.

Atomic Van is led by its founders, Jason and Jacob. We make and run Pingstack and Slidebit, and we build larger software projects for other companies.

We'd rather do it right than do it twice.

We also build software for other companies, and we're picky about which projects we take. They're usually bigger builds: a new product, a rewrite of a system that's outgrown itself, or the internal tool your team lives in all day.

Every project ships with tests and documentation, so your own developers can pick it up after we hand it over.

Projects that fit us, and projects that don't
A good fitProbably not us
You have a real problem and a budget set aside for itBrochure websites and template tweaks
You want code your team can maintain after we leaveFixed-price bids written before anyone's seen the problem
You want to stay involved without managing every detailAnything that has to launch by Friday
  1. My AI agent set up our nonprofit's monitoring

    Every check on the Griffin Arts Council's website was created by an AI coding agent through Pingstack's MCP server. Here's what it set up, and what it caught.

  2. Slidebit charges per sale. Here's the math.

    Slidebit costs 7% plus 50 cents a sale and nothing else. A typical store plan charges every month. Here's how to tell which one costs you less.

  3. Nothing crashed. That was the problem.

    The worst outages we've seen weren't loud. A cron job stopped, emails never went out, a domain expired. Here's why we built Pingstack to catch the things that don't happen.
