What we build
Four disciplines, one senior team.
No account managers relaying messages. The engineer writing it is the one you talk to.
Automation scripts
Reliable integrations and scheduled workflows that remove repetitive work from your day.
Plugins & extensions
Focused tools for Figma, Chrome, WordPress, Shopify, VS Code and the platforms you use.
Product engineering
Senior technical delivery from first scope through launch, iteration and handover.
How we work
Something useful in your hands within weeks.
Engagements start with a short scoping call and a fixed-scope first slice. What you get is a fully functioning responsive web app, ready to use.

Custom apps, scripts, and plugins — built by a small senior team.
Captive Digital is a software studio for founders, product teams, and operators who need something specific built properly. We design and ship production web apps, automation scripts that quietly remove hours of repetitive work, and plugins that extend the tools your team already lives in — Figma, Chrome, WordPress, Shopify, VS Code, and more.
What we build
- Custom web apps — SaaS MVPs, internal dashboards, AI-powered features, Stripe and Paddle billing.
- Automation scripts — data pipelines, API integrations, migrations, CLI tooling.
- Plugins & extensions — Figma plugins, Chrome extensions, WordPress and Shopify apps, editor tooling.
