A small team with a big commitment to open tech
i Data Connect! (iDC!) is a product lab in San Francisco. We build developer tools and infrastructure that catch mistakes before production and stay under your control.
Our mission
To build software that's powerful, accessible and built to last. We believe great technology should be open, adaptable and created with care, whether it serves millions or solves a problem for one.
How we work
- Direct access to the people who build your tools
- Fast, focused execution with no red tape
- Rooted in open-source values: transparency, flexibility and freedom
- Decades of experience across platforms and industries
Meet the team
We're a hands-on team of two, partners in both life and business, with decades of combined experience in software engineering and system architecture.
Patti Upsavs
Part strategist, part problem-solver. Patti keeps projects running smoothly while building long-term wins for customers and partners. Passionate about organization, music and dogs.
Ben Upsavs
An expert in designing and delivering scalable systems, with experience in both FAANG and startup environments. A stickler for high code coverage and well-documented code.
Systems we've built for others
Alongside our own products, iDC! builds production systems for businesses. The same care goes into both, and each makes the other better.
Operations software for one of the West Coast's largest vineyard companies, which also runs a major winery: harvest and inventory tracking from vineyard block to cellar, real-time monitoring of wine fermenting in tanks and aging in barrels, all tied into online sales.
A real estate platform that syncs live listings from the California Regional MLS through the RESO API, so buyers always see what is actually on the market.
Managed the web presence for a range of companies, handling design, hosting, updates and day-to-day upkeep so they could focus on running their businesses.
Turned a traditional print shop into a self-service operation. Customers order business cards, letterhead and more on their own, see their designs rendered online and approve proofs before anything goes to press. The company had never offered anything like it before.
A private booking platform for rental properties, handling availability, reservations and guest bookings from start to finish.
