About
A name on everything we ship.
Who is accountable, how the firm is staffed, and where the name comes from — the diligence answers, before you ask.
Start with who answers for the work — it’s what you’d check first, so it comes first. Every engagement is signed by a named senior specialist, and you know who that is before anything starts. The name is on the proposal you receive, and it stays on the work. Agents draft; specialists judge. A person answers for it.
The arrangement, plainly: this firm is AI-first — agents do the research, the drafting, the auditing, and much of the building. It is new: no client logos yet, no case-study wall, and we won’t manufacture one. It is run in the open: our prices are published, our arithmetic is published, and as engagements complete, our exit playbooks — the working notes on how each tool was left — will be published too, redacted.
The name: saaspocalyp.se is named for the week in February 2026 when the market abruptly repriced per-seat software — the event the financial press called the SaaSpocalypse. We didn’t coin the word; we took the job it implied. Somebody has to do the unglamorous work on the other side of that repricing: inventory the stack, judge each tool — “keep” is a real answer — and build the replacements worth owning.
The firm was started in Sydney by Sharad Kumar, after 25 years of enterprise architecture. It trades as saaspocalyp.se.

A new firm asks you to take a lot on faith. We’d rather hand you the argument: the case this firm is built on — that buying software is a decision again — is written out in one place, sources and all.
