Real businesses.
Real things, built.

A few projects I’ve designed and developed independently — from a local service website to a working SaaS product.

Before the code,
I get to know
your business.

I live in Edmonton, Alberta. If you’re local, I can visit your shop, office or workspace and see how things really happen — the paper forms, the repeat phone calls, the spreadsheet that holds everything together.

That’s where useful software starts. My aim is to help local businesses become stronger, more efficient and more competitive — contributing, one practical improvement at a time, to a thriving Canadian economy.

AI, with a job to do

Less busywork.
More possibility.

AI belongs where it makes a real difference: finding information, preparing a first draft, reading a document or connecting the next step in a workflow. I build it into new products and the systems you already use.

The person behind Elkframe

Hi, I’m Sergii.
Your developer,
from day one.

I’m Sergii Kliuiev, a software developer based in Edmonton with over 17 years of experience. My career includes senior development work at Geoforce and contributions to complex, collaborative software projects.

Elkframe is my independent practice. I build the projects shown here solo: shaping the idea, designing the experience, writing the software and taking it live. You work directly with the person making the decisions and doing the work.

That combination matters: the personal attention of an independent developer, with the engineering judgement that comes from years of working on demanding systems.

FAQ

Good questions.
Straight answers.

Do you work with small local businesses?

Yes. A local service business may need a clear website and a simple booking flow. Another may need a custom operational tool. We start with your actual priorities and scope the work accordingly.

Can you visit my business in Edmonton?

Yes. We can arrange an on-site discovery visit in Edmonton and discuss nearby locations. Seeing the real workflow helps reveal what a website, automation or custom application should improve.

Can one developer handle a complex project?

I have 17+ years of development experience and have contributed to complex team projects. For independent work, I agree a realistic scope, build in stages and make capacity and dependencies clear. Enterprise engagements are scoped around their technical and operational needs.

Can you add AI to an existing system?

Yes. We can identify a useful first integration, such as document search, extraction or a staff assistant. Data access, output quality, human review and ongoing model costs are considered as part of the design.

Do you work outside Alberta?

Yes. Edmonton is home, Canada is my primary market, and I also work remotely with businesses internationally. On-site work and travel are agreed separately.

How much does a project cost?

Cost depends on scope, integrations and the level of complexity. After understanding your business, I provide a proposal with deliverables, assumptions and a budget. Hosting, third-party services and ongoing support are discussed separately.
