SENIOR RUBY ON RAILS ENGINEERING, POWERED BY AI AGENTS

Build more software. Not a bigger engineering team.

JetRockets combines senior Ruby on Rails expertise with AI coding agents to build, modernize, and evolve production software faster.

AI can write code. We make sure the right software gets built — and own the outcome.

AI changed Rails development. We changed with it.

Writing code used to be one of the biggest constraints in software development.

It isn't anymore.

AI coding agents can now implement features, write tests, refactor code, investigate bugs, document systems, and handle work that previously consumed enormous amounts of engineering time.

That changes what a great engineering partner should provide.

You don't need a company whose primary value is supplying people to write code.

You need experienced people who know what should be built, how it should be architected, where AI can accelerate the work, where human judgment is essential, and how to get reliable software into production.

That's how JetRockets works.

Senior engineering judgment. AI-powered execution.

We use AI throughout our software development lifecycle to increase what a small, experienced team can accomplish.

Our engineers own architecture, product decisions, system design, quality, security, and production reliability.

AI agents help us execute.

The result: more engineering output without increasing headcount proportionally.

What we help companies do

🚀
Build
Turn product requirements into production software.

From new products and major features to integrations and internal platforms, we take responsibility for getting software shipped — not simply supplying developers.
🛠
Modernize
Make established Rails applications easier and faster to evolve.

We use senior Rails expertise and AI-assisted engineering to accelerate upgrades, refactoring, testing, documentation, technical-debt reduction, and architectural improvements.
⚡
Accelerate
Increase the output of an existing engineering organization.

We help companies redesign development workflows around AI agents, improve their Rails architecture, remove delivery bottlenecks, and ship more without simply hiring more developers.

Why Rails + AI works

Ruby on Rails has always been about developer leverage: conventions, mature abstractions, and accomplishing more with smaller teams.

AI compounds that advantage.

JetRockets has spent more than 15 years building production Rails applications. That experience gives our engineers the context to direct, review, and validate AI-generated work instead of blindly accepting it.

AI makes code inexpensive.
Experience makes it production-ready.

After evaluating several options, JetRockets was the clear winner. They followed through exactly to spec with daily updates and speed beyond what was promised. The engineers were self-guided and required zero oversight.

We help turn individual AI usage into an engineering system.

What clients say

“

Their team delivers on time and is very communicative. They’ve taken ownership of the project when necessary; they are very responsible.

JetRockets is so much more than a dev team - they are a core part of Safari Portal and of our family. They truly care about the product and its success and it shows in everything that they do - every feature, every task, every question. I am excited to see what we create together in the future.

They bring a lot of deep Rails and architecture experience to the table.

Deep Rails expertise still matters

AI didn't make technical expertise less valuable.

It made it more leveraged.

We've spent 15+ years working almost exclusively with Ruby on Rails applications. We've seen the architectural mistakes, scaling problems, upgrade challenges, integration failures, and technical-debt patterns that production Rails systems accumulate.

That experience tells us what to ask AI to do — and when not to trust the answer.

We also show up for Rails in public. We maintain Jet UI, an open-source Rails component library built on ViewComponent, Tailwind, and Stimulus, published as the jet_ui gem. Our CTO, Igor Aleksandrov, is a Docker Captain, and we have been a Gold Sponsor of Tropical on Rails two years running.

JetRockets is a women-owned Ruby on Rails company headquartered in Brooklyn, New York. Founded in 2012 and led by its co-founders, Natalie Kaminski, Igor Aleksandrov, and Aleksei Solilin, we have worked almost exclusively on Rails for more than 15 years.

Frequently asked questions

Our senior Rails engineers direct AI coding agents across the whole development lifecycle. Agents implement features, write tests, refactor code, investigate bugs, and document systems. Our engineers own architecture, product decisions, system design, quality, security, and production reliability, and they review and validate what the agents produce instead of accepting it blindly. The result is more engineering output from a small, experienced team, without adding headcount at the same rate.
A Ruby on Rails agency designs, builds, modernizes, and maintains web applications on the Rails framework. In practice that is four kinds of work: building a new product, rescuing one that has stalled, upgrading an application that has fallen behind on Rails versions, and keeping a live platform fast and secure once it is carrying real traffic. Most agencies that offer Rails offer four or five other stacks alongside it. JetRockets does not. We are Rails-only, which is why we can usually tell you what is wrong with your application in days rather than weeks. Today much of the execution is done by AI coding agents, directed and reviewed by our senior Rails engineers.
Our pricing is public and simple. Every engagement is all-inclusive of QA and DevOps, so testing and infrastructure work are never separate line items on your invoice. The minimum build engagement is $25,600, so if you want to see how we operate before committing to a bigger build, there is a way to do that. Fixed-scope audits start at $7,500. Once the first piece of work has shipped and both sides can see the partnership works, most clients move to an ongoing retainer, which starts at $22,000 a month.
Kickoff is typically two to three weeks after the agreement is signed. A simple MVP usually takes six to ten weeks; most funded-team builds run 12 to 20. Larger platform work runs in two-week sprints with weekly visibility, so you always know what shipped and what is next. Clients see delivery roughly 40 percent faster than building the same team in-house, and most of that gap is not talent. It is that we are not learning Rails on your schedule.
Yes. Security audits, dependency and CVE remediation, and hardening are core services, and we have taken production Rails applications through SOC 2 and HIPAA requirements in fintech, healthtech, and legal tech. Every new build carries a 30-day bug fix guarantee. If you are not certain whether you have a security problem, the free Rails code audit covers architecture, performance, and security and comes back as a written report in two to three days.
Yes, and it is a large share of what we do. Scaling work almost always starts with the database rather than the servers. N+1 queries, missing indexes, and unbounded result sets account for most of the Rails slowdowns we are called in to fix. From there it moves to caching, background jobs, and read replicas, and only then to running more machines. We work with zero-downtime deployment, so the fix does not need a maintenance window.
The co-founders stay. Every JetRockets engagement is led by Natalie, Igor or Alexei rather than handed to a junior team once the contract is signed, so the people who understand your architecture and your business context do not change when a developer rotates off. People move between teams at every agency, ours included. The question worth asking a prospective partner is not whether that ever happens. It is whether the knowledge walks out of the door with them. Ours is built so that it does not.
You do. All intellectual property, all source code, all repositories, transferred to you and yours to keep. There is no lock-in, no proprietary framework you have to keep paying us to maintain, and no clause that makes leaving expensive. We work under a mutual NDA from the first conversation.
JetRockets is headquartered in Brooklyn, New York, and every engagement is led from New York. Our engineering team is distributed across Europe and, since 2024, Latin America. Between the two regions the working day runs long, so work carries on after your team logs off rather than pausing until morning.
