Planet Argon

At Planet Argon, we believe good software deserves a longer life. For more than 20 years, we’ve worked with organizations that rely on Ruby on Rails applications at the core of their business. These applications hold years of human effort and investment. Too often, we see teams assume the only way forward is to throw it all away and start fresh. That’s risky, expensive, and usually unnecessary. Our mission is to help teams extend the life of the software they already have. We preserve and adapt Rails applications so they remain reliable, maintainable, and ready for what comes next. By doing this, we give organizations something they can’t get from a rewrite: continuity, momentum, and the confidence to keep shipping. Most of our clients don’t need a large internal engineering team. Some have been stuck bouncing between freelancers. Others rely on a single over-stretched developer. What they need is something in between: the reliability of a team, without the overhead of full-time hires. That’s where we come in. Through upgrade projects, ongoing maintenance retainers, and fractional development support, we help companies avoid costly rewrites and focus their energy on growth. Behind every system is a story of people, teams, and hard work. We treat that effort with care, guiding organizations to evolve their applications instead of discarding them. Software is worth preserving. Done right, it can continue to open doors to new opportunities. That’s the work we’re committed to.
