Managed hosting and ongoing technology support
The studio stays when the work needs it.
Support is the Kief Studio line for staying on the work: managed hosting on LTFI, website operations, advisory, quarterly reviews, written SLAs, and onboarding. It is for businesses that want one accountable studio keeping their systems running and planning what comes next. Managed hosting on LTFI is our main offering, and we operate it for you on dedicated machines. 3am is a retainer, not a default.
Support is a retainer. The systems stay up, the questions get an answer, and the next piece of work is sequenced so it builds on the last.
The retainer spells out how fast we answer and when, so you know before anything breaks.
The first conversation is free. No commitment.
