about
1Zero9 is a small studio — currently just me, Stephen Cranfield — building bespoke AI systems and custom software for people who need something built around a real problem, not squeezed into a generic tool.
I care about the whole stack of a product: the thinking before the first line of code, the architecture that keeps it maintainable, the design that makes it feel inevitable, and the details most people never notice. That's what a solo studio gets you — one person accountable for the whole thing, not a project handed between departments.
The projects section tells those stories in full — problems, decisions, and lessons included. If you're working out whether I'm the right fit for something you're building, that's the honest version of my work.
The fastest way to reach me is email: onezeronine@gmail.com.
