We build things.

SUUS is a small studio in Haarlem. We design and build AI products, systems and automations for companies that want them to exist rather than be discussed.

Who you talk to

You speak to Ruben van Melsen. He takes the call, writes the proposal, and ships the work. No account team in between.

What we believe

01

Design and engineering are one discipline.

The best AI products are not designed and then built. They are designed while being built, by people who do both.

02

AI is a material, not a feature.

Intelligence is not added at the end. The product is shaped around what the model can do and, just as important, where it fails.

03

Speed is a quality.

A prototype in days changes the conversation. AI-native development gives us that speed. Engineering discipline keeps it.

04

Show, don't claim.

We would rather put a working system in front of you than a slide about it.

05

Boring infrastructure, ambitious products.

Proven databases, clear contracts, observability everywhere. The ambition goes into the product, not the plumbing.

06

Ownership stays with you.

Your data, your models, your code. No lock-in, no black boxes, no dependency on us to keep the lights on.

Yes, we vibe code.No, we don't ship vibe code.

We use AI aggressively across research, design, code and testing. That is why we move faster than a traditional team. Architecture, security, quality and product decisions stay with the person who can explain every line running in production.

Who we work with

Ambitious companies
Organisations that have decided AI will change their product or operation, and want it built rather than studied.
Enterprise organisations
Teams that need production-grade AI inside real constraints: security, data residency, integration, governance.
Marketing and creative agencies
We are the AI and engineering partner behind the work: platforms, intelligent experiences and the systems that run them.
Technology companies and scale-ups
Product teams that want a senior design and engineering group that moves at their speed and understands models.

How we work together

  1. Project

    A defined product, system or experience, taken from understanding to shipped and measured.

  2. Embedded team

    Designers and engineers working inside your product organisation, with your tools and your roadmap.

  3. Continuous

    We run, evaluate and evolve what we built, together with your team, for as long as it is useful.
