Let's vibe.
Like it's 1984.

Vibe Coding is as disruptive as the Apple Mac. No code. Just words.

Our Method

Vibe Coding.

A revolution in software engineering, as impactful as the emergence of the PC and the landmark Apple Mac launch in 1984. Vibe Coding challenges business-as-usual IT: we let non-programmers to create Web apps and Websites.

At Being Guided, as our name implies, we guide business and IT professionals through every stage of AI innovation with Vibe Coding. This starts with our 4 step Method: Think; Simplify; Value; and, Build.

Vibe Coding? Andrej Karpathy (2025) defined this phrase as a new way of programming software, where you specify the intent or style - the 'vibe' of what you want.

We work with best-in-class Vibe Coding tools, where we co-create a Web app or Website with you that, firstly, represents a Prototype. Then secondly, we move on to deliver a Production solution, with UK data residency, running on preferred infrastructure of choice.

Karpathy, A. [@karpathy]. (2025, February 2). There's a new kind of coding I call "vibe coding", where you fully give in to vibes, embrace exponentials, and forget that code even exists. X. https://x.com/karpathy/status/1753472166197080428

01

Think.

02

03

Value.

Practice Value Engineering. We work with you to create a compelling case and ROI Model for Vibe Coding a new Web app or Website.

04

Build.

Everyone Vibe Codes. This means that non-tech and tech stakeholders together, become active participants in digital innovation.

Build

No code. Just words.

Creating Web apps by describing them. This enables the Build phase of Web apps to run on trusted UK Data Sovereign clouds in Production.

Powered by a Vibe Coding tool with multi-Large Language Models (LLMs). This always starts with a Prototype: a Web app or Website that we can create for you in a matter of days and hours.

Rapid Prototyping a Web app or Website is a great way to get immersed into the 'No code. Just words.' spirit of Vibe Coding. Let's schedule a Discovery to show you how this can work for you.

When moving from Prototype to Production means that Web apps are hosted on an UK data sovereign platform. This includes AWS, Azure, GCP or Civo.com.
