We’re proud to sponsor Josh Layton and support a local athlete putting in the work every single day. 🥊

The dedication and discipline shown day in and day out is exactly what we admire.

We're excited to follow the journey and see what’s ahead.

Are you unknowingly losing value from your development projects due to a hidden gap between your business and your agency?

This “knowledge gap” can lead to misaligned expectations, unclear communication, and ultimately, projects that don’t deliver the full value they should. In many cases, it’s not a lack of expertise, it’s a disconnect in understanding, priorities, and how technical work translates into real business outcomes.

We’ve written a short blog exploring where this gap comes from, the signs to look out for, and how to bridge it to get better results from your digital projects.

Discover the hidden knowledge gap between business and development agencies, why projects drift, and how to bridge it for better outcomes.

It was great to get some of the team together yesterday for our quarterly lunch at wagamama 🍜

It was a fantastic chance to step away from the day-to-day, catch up properly, and enjoy some great food together.

We're already looking forward to the next one!

This week some of the Castus team had the opportunity to step onboard one of the ships from Ambassador Cruise Line

It was a great day getting a closer look at the ship, discussing upcoming work, and spending time catching up with the team. Opportunities like this are always valuable.

A big thank you to the Ambassador Cruise Lines team for the warm welcome and a really enjoyable visit.

And we promise Darren Yarrow & Gary Hides didn’t plan their matching outfits the night before… 😄

Build vs Buy? It’s one of the biggest tech decisions a cruise operator will make.

Do you invest in a custom system, or implement a proven platform built for your industry?

The wrong choice can mean delays, spiralling costs and operational headaches.

We've written an article with our views which you can find here -

If build vs buy is on your agenda this year, this is a good place to start.

When your business needs software to solve a problem, increase efficiency, or enable growth, you're faced with a decision. Should you buy an off-the-shelf solution or invest in custom software development?

We’ve loved having our client Ambassador Cruise Line in the office over the last few days 🐶

Between dogs in the office, meals out together, and a few games thrown in, it’s been a really nice change from the usual calls and Teams messages. Great to spend proper time together, catch up in person, and enjoy some good company along the way.

Thanks for coming in!

We’re officially back after the Christmas and New Year break 🎄

The inbox is open, the coffee is strong, and we’re ready to get stuck into new web projects.

If a new website, refresh, or digital upgrade is on your 2026 to-do list, now’s a great time to get in touch.

Looking forward to working with existing and new clients this year!

Looks like Pixel’s time with us has been… cut short by our office dog 🐶🎄

After a few weeks of elf-induced mischief, our resident four-legged Head of Security has decided he’s officially had enough, and is escorting Pixel back to the North Pole early.

Pixel, we salute your service.
Shadow, we respect your boundaries.
