Built for live markets
Trading technology,built and run.
We design, build and operate trading platforms, execution systems and fund technology for brokers, prop firms and emerging managers, from first commit to the 3am alert.
01The labs
Eight disciplines. One lead.
A trading system crosses disciplines, so each lab is a specialist practice with its own methods, standards and a live tool you can try. They share one delivery lead, one engineering standard and one contract, so nothing falls between suppliers.

04Standards
What every engagement includes.
Seven commitments written into every contract, whichever lab leads the work. They are what keeps software easy to change long after launch.
- 01
Fixed-price paid discovery
A short, fixed-price sprint that ends in scope, architecture and a costed plan. You own the output, whoever builds it.
- 02
A named accountable lead
One senior person answers for delivery across every lab involved, from kickoff to run.
- 03
You own the code and documentation
Repositories, infrastructure accounts, runbooks and decisions sit in your name from the first day.
- 04
Automated test gates
Unit, integration and end-to-end tests run on every change. Nothing merges or ships on a red build.
- 05
Observability from day one
Logs, metrics, traces and alerts are part of the first release, not a phase after launch.
- 06
Written architecture decisions
Every significant choice is recorded with its context and the alternatives considered, so future teams know why.
- 07
An SLA-backed run retainer
Hosting, monitoring, patching and support under a service level agreement, delivered by the team that built it.
05Live tools

07Approach
Discover, build, then run.
Phase 01
Discover
We map the workflow, the data and the risk with the people who own them, then agree scope, architecture and a fixed-price plan with one accountable lead.
- Workshops and system audit
- Architecture and risk register
- Fixed scope and milestones
Phase 02
Build
We ship in short increments you can see working. Tests, security review and observability are part of the build, never bolted on later.
- Fortnightly working releases
- Review on every change
- Monitoring from day one
Phase 03
Run
We host, monitor, patch and grow what we built: search, support and round-the-clock monitoring under the same contract and the same team.
- Hosting and 24/7 monitoring
- Search and content, every month
- Support with a named lead
Agentic delivery
How we use AI, and where people sign off.
We deliver agentically. Claude Code agents write, test and refactor a large share of the code, working in the same repositories, tickets and pipelines as the people who lead the work. That makes delivery faster. It does not make it unsupervised.
Every change passes automated quality gates, then an engineer reviews it before it merges. The decisions that carry accountability are made, and signed, by named people.
Automated gates
- Type checks and linting on every commit
- Unit, integration and Playwright tests
- Security review on every pull request
- Dependency and secrets scanning
People sign off
- Architecture decisions
- Security findings and risk acceptance
- Production releases
- Anything regulated
08Who we work with
Who we build for.
Brokers and prop firms
Firms that need terminals, execution and client portals they control, with the audit trail their compliance team will ask for.
Fund managers
Emerging and established managers who need investor portals, reporting and operations tooling with data that stays correct and private.
Fintechs and larger firms
Scale-ups whose first codebase has become the constraint, and established businesses that need written governance and evidence of how software was built.
Agencies
Agencies and consultancies that sell the strategy and need engineering behind it. Our partner route lets you deliver under your own brand.
The white-label partner route
09Founder
Who leads the work.
Aurion Labs was founded by Komey Tetteh, who spent 12 years at Deloitte and owned the roadmap for 25+ audit applications used by 13,000 practitioners in the UK and Switzerland. More about Komey.

11FAQ
Questions, answered.
What is a lab?
A specialist discipline with its own methods, standards and tools. Specialists are brought in where the work needs them, and the labs share one delivery lead, one engineering standard and one contract, so a project that needs software, data and security still has a single accountable team.
What size of project do you take on?
Engagements usually start with a fixed-price discovery sprint and grow into builds and run retainers for brokers, fund managers, fintechs and larger firms. If a project is too small to justify our process, we will say so.
Do you use AI to write code?
Yes. We deliver agentically with Claude Code, and every change passes automated tests, security review and a human code review before it merges. People sign off architecture, security, releases and anything regulated.
Who owns the code?
You do, from the first commit, along with the documentation, architecture decisions and infrastructure accounts.
Can you run what you build?
Yes. The run retainer covers hosting, monitoring, patching, search and support under an SLA, delivered by the team that built the system.
Do you work with agencies?
Yes. Agencies and consultancies can refer, resell or co-deliver our engineering under their own brand through the white-label partner programme.
