TwentyOneLabs sets up and looks after the servers, email, backups, websites and business apps your company runs on, using low-cost, open-source tools where they fit.
Pick a “what if” below, or tap any part of the map.
If any of these made you wince, you’re in the right place.
Each one in plain English, with what you actually get at the end of it.
TwentyOneLabs is a small practice, on purpose. No account managers, no juniors learning on your systems and no ticket queue to get lost in.
The person you explain the problem to is the person who fixes it. You won’t have to say it twice.
Change control, root cause analysis and proper documentation keep large companies running. They work just as well at your size.
Everything gets written down. Runbooks and handover documents match what’s actually running, and they’re yours to keep.
The same shape whether it’s a backup plan or a whole new server setup.
You tell us what’s going on. You don’t need the right words for it, that’s our job.
You get a plain scope and estimate: what we’ll do, what we won’t, and what it’s likely to cost. No work starts until you’re happy.
Designed, built and tested. Every change is planned and recorded, so there’s a way back if something misbehaves.
You get the documents, the logins and a walk-through. It’s your system, not ours.
Patching, updates and someone to call. Or you take it from there. Either is fine.
Not sure where to start? Answer these and we’ll suggest what to look at first. There’s no score, and we can’t see your answers unless you choose to send them.
Backups you haven’t tested are really just hopes.
Client names are kept private. No made-up quotes or numbers, just what was delivered.
A platform for a UK waste and recycling business that also runs back office work. TwentyOneLabs built full stack applications for it, deployed them using AI-assisted coding and configuration, and helped connect the app to on-site equipment.

We work out what you need and design how it fits together. That part is experience, not autocomplete.
Claude Code and GitHub Copilot produce the code and configuration from our designs, and help keep the documents up to date.
Every change is reviewed and tested before it touches your systems.
No. Tell us what’s going wrong in your own words. We’ll explain what we find and what we’d do in plain English, and you decide.
We don’t publish prices, because every business is set up differently. Tell us what you’ve got, and you’ll get a written scope and estimate before any work starts. You’re free to say no.
Fair question, and the right one to ask. It’s why everything gets written down. Runbooks and handover documents match what’s actually running, you hold the logins, and another engineer could pick it up from there.
Usually, yes. We start by looking at what you’ve got. If something works, it stays. We’re not here to replace things for the sake of it.
Not necessarily. Sometimes private hosting makes sense and sometimes what you have is the right fit. You’ll get an honest view either way.
AI tools help produce the code and configuration, but they don’t make decisions and they don’t go live on their own. The design is ours, and everything is reviewed and tested first.
Yes. TwentyOneLabs is based in Glasgow and works remotely, so where you are matters less than you’d think.
No sales pitch. You’ll hear back from an engineer, not an account manager.
