Small studio,

AJ
Anton Simon Jacob Robert Joha Founder & Principal Consultant

Anton is the founder and principal consultant of Smylyx, and leads every engagement personally. He brings strategy, technology and design together under one roof — so clients get joined-up, senior thinking instead of a relay race between departments.

His work spans management and IT consultancy — sourcing, procurement and governance — through to custom software and app development and the design systems that make products a pleasure to use. The approach is consistent: understand the problem deeply, then build the smallest thing that solves it beautifully.

  • Strategy, roadmaps & management consulting
  • IT sourcing, procurement & governance
  • Software & app development
  • Product & UX design and research
01

Senior-led

You work directly with the founder — no junior hand-offs.

The person you meet at the first conversation is the person who does the work. Nothing is passed down to a delivery team you have never met, and nothing is quietly re-scoped to fill a bench.

02

Cross-disciplinary

Strategy, IT, engineering and design in one place.

Because the same person holds the strategy, the procurement and the build, decisions do not get lost in translation between departments — and the trade-offs are made once, in the open.

03

Honest

Clear scope, clear pricing, and straight advice — even when it’s “you don’t need this.”

We would rather lose a piece of work than sell you something you will regret. If an off-the-shelf product does the job, we will tell you which one and step back.
