Planet Argon

At Planet Argon, we think great software should be built to endure. For more than 21 years, we’ve partnered with organizations whose businesses run on Ruby on Rails applications. Those systems carry years of expertise, effort, and investment. Yet too many teams conclude that the best option is to scrap everything and begin again. That path is costly, disruptive, and usually not the answer. We help companies keep the software they already trust working for them longer. By maintaining and modernizing Rails applications, we make them dependable, easier to support, and prepared for future needs. The result is something a rewrite can’t offer: steady progress, preserved knowledge, and the confidence to keep releasing. Most of the organizations we work with don’t need a massive in-house engineering department. Some have spent too long cycling through freelancers; others depend on one developer carrying far too much. What they really need sits in the middle: a team they can count on, without the burden of full-time staffing. That’s where we fit. With upgrades, ongoing care plans, and fractional development help, we enable teams to skip expensive rebuilds and put their energy into growth. Every application reflects real people, real collaboration, and a lot of hard-earned work. We respect that investment by helping organizations improve what they have instead of throwing it away. Software is too valuable to discard. When it’s cared for well, it keeps creating room for new opportunities. That’s the commitment behind our work.
