Core Expertise
While we can tackle a vast array of IT challenges and are deeply comfortable in the terminal using command line, our key areas of deep expertise include:
Network Infrastructure & WiFi Troubleshooting
Spend more time at the beach, not fighting your WiFi.
Specializing in large luxury homes and offices with extensive networking and WiFi needs. We design and implement bespoke high-performance WiFi networks for large La Jolla estates, modern Del Mar residences, and smart homes throughout San Diego. Leveraging science-based methodologies and enterprise-grade infrastructure, including Cat6A, Cat8, and fiber backbones, we ensure flawless, secure, and ultra-fast connectivity that supports demanding applications, extensive smart home integrations, and the high-bandwidth needs of creative professionals and executive home offices. Say goodbye to dead zones and unreliable connections. We use science-based methods to solve problems and design networks. We show you options for WiFi gear that can achieve the speeds you want, and you can buy directly from the source, not from us. We don’t depend upon a 40% markup for survival, and we are not limited to lower-spec gear. This allows us to be free from the distribution channels that most IT/AV companies are locked into, enabling us to demonstrate to you, using scientific specifications, why you may want specific products. We architect secure, robust networks that seamlessly integrate advanced technologies with precision and clarity, so you get fast WiFi. (at the speed you're paying for) everywhere in your location.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you help with Mac, iOS, PC, or mixed computer environments?
Absolutely! Our primary expertise lies with macOS and iOS support, and we excel at troubleshooting for these platforms, including secure screen sharing directly with iPhones and iPads. We also possess a deep understanding of Linux and Windows systems, enabling us to support diverse tech environments effectively.
How is your service different from a Managed Service Provider (MSP)?
We take a different approach focused on transparency and on-demand support. Unlike many MSPs that lock clients into fixed monthly fees regardless of usage, we believe you should only pay for IT help when needed. There are no long-term contracts or arbitrary retainers with us – just fair, transparent billing for actual work performed. Think of it as having an elite IT team on call: we can essentially become part of your team on an as-needed basis. This flexible model saves you money and builds trust, since our incentive is to solve issues efficiently, not to pad hours. We offer high-touch, on-demand IT support as an ethical alternative to the traditional MSP model.
Do you fix cracked iPhone screens?
We’re not a hardware repair shop—we specialize in operating systems, software, networking, and data security. For existing clients with a cracked screen, we offer a concierge replacement: we pick up a factory-fresh iPhone from Apple, meet you on-site, and migrate your data while you watch. Your phone never leaves your hands, so your contacts and sensitive info stay shielded from prying eyes. Prefer a glass replacement? We’ll refer you to a vetted local technician.
